Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

Sorry about the sort of clueless question here but...

I want to use the evolvers sequencer essentially as an arp.  How do I 
set the evolver so that the sequencer only runs when the a key on my 
controller is pressed?

Thanks for any thoughts anyone has.

page 33 of the manual.  I believe you want "NS" for the "trigger select"
parameter.

Joe.

Found it, thank you.

Hi Dodging Rain,

Fancy seeing  you here.

You have two options the aforementioned MS trigger mode, which 
allows the sequencer to run with a midi note gating the output.  
Also, there is the MSr mode which operates the same way but 
retriggers the sequence first.

I think part of my confusion stems from the editor on dave's site and the
manual.  The manual uses abreviations (as on the evolver) while the editor
attempts to use human readable text, figuring out which is which isn't
always obvious.  Maybe in the editor it should have the abreviation from the
manual in () after the human readable text.

Also whenever I send midi clock to the evolver the sequecer runs(or at least
the lights do), find that a little odd as well.

But I figured out what I need thanks to everyone's help.

It's Sinner6.

As far as the sequencer...it should only run when it recieves 
the "start" command.  Cubase SX has the unfortunate limitation that 
it sends clock only when the sequencer is running.  

There are some cases where you may need to make the first step be 
a "RST" in the sequencer to nullify this effect.

Ah, ok, you are an HC junky.  

I don't have a problem with cubase not sending clock unless it's 
running, I just tend to mute all the other tracks and have cubase 
loop while I program.  My biggest headache is the midi device 
manager and it constantly reseting the patch I'm on (yah, I would 
like it to read my mind, why can't it do that?)

Having the evolver's sequencer start when cubase starts really threw 
me, I'm used to things like the ms2000, and every other synth I've 
ever delt with, where you have to setup the sequencer in the patch 
otherwise it doesn't run.  I prefer that over the way the evolver's 
sequencer is setup.

Ah well, it works as is, just have to get used to those lights 
blinking all the time I guess.
