Re: [Evolver] Poly Keys

1. Chaining was mainly implemented to increase polyphony, ther2fore 2 chained units will still be 4 part multitimbral but with 8 voices available. If you want to use them as 2 independent units with 8 parts simply switch the chain modus off. 2. The current Rack OS doesn't include the unison modes from the keyboard. Afaik OS updates are in the works. Another reason could be that the init patches of rack and keyboard aren't quite identical. They should be identicakl though after you've saved them. 3. There is no automatic means to align the RAM contens of rack and keyboard. The easiest way is to dump the keyboard sounds with an appropriate program like midiOx and to transfer them to the Poly Rack. Stefan ----- Original Message -----
