Most knobs on the keboard will allow one to tweak more than one at a time
They are encoders and most, if not all, will be smooth, not detented, which will hopefully not be problematic.

Subject: [Evolver] PolyEvolver keyboard 'Knobs'


A question to those who may know: Will the PolyEvolver keyboard have
the same knob-type/functions as the MonoEvolver?

Like, can only one knob be turned at a time?

Are the same 'pots/encoders' used as MonoEvolver?

I ask simply because regarding my MonoEvolver, I do believe that
someday its knobs will stop working correctly (because they already do
sometimes.)

If anyone knows any more specifics (pros/cons) of the PolyEvolver
Keyboard hardware please step up.

Thanks,
Chris

While we are on the subject, what size are the knobs, especially in comparison to the Evolver and Rack PolyEvolver? Kinda hard to tell from posted pictures, but I am guessing/hoping they are slightly larger?
