This surely must be due to the "VCA Level" parameter (row 4, knob 1 on the
Evolver's front panel), which should normally be set to 0; if set to a
non-zero value, it will create a constant drone effect like you're hearing.
[I don't know where that parameter is in the editor software though.]
It might be a slight source of confusion that the Evolver VCA has three
separate "volume like" parameters: (1) VCA Level, which sets the _minimum_
VCA level, (2) VCA Env Amt, which determines how much the VCA envelope
effects the volume, and (3) VCA Volume, which scales the output level.
I think normally the "VCA Level" and "Env Amt" parameters are set to 0 and
100 respectively, and "VCA Volume" used to control the output level.
There's also a global volume parameter, so you're definitely not at a loss
for control over the Evolver's output level... :-)
