Hi Everyone, My evolver has just arrived and I was wondering what the little flashing dot between the 2nd and 3rd digit on the display signifies. When I first connected the unit it was flashing very quickly, now it has disappeared! Any help would be really appreciated. Cheers Andy

it's the MIDI recieve indicator. Check page 7 of the manual (well, page 7 of my 2.02 manual at any rate!) :-) "Note - the right decimal point in the display flashes whenever anything comes in MIDI input jack. Note that it flashes even when MIDI input is disabled." if it's flashing steadily, very very fast (almost too fast to see it's actually flashing) then chances are it's recieving a MIDI clock signal, which would mean it's flashing at 24ppqn of whatever tempo of whatever's sending the clock data. Otherwise it could be recieving active sense messages , or note messages, or anything on the MIDI bus.. not necessarily just data on its own chanel, either... julian Andrew Capon wrote:

actually, I already knew what the dot was for, and even then it took me a fair bit of searching through the manual to find it. :-) The manual definately does help with a basic understanding of what the synth is and what it can do - only it's much more fun to tweak the parameters and just play with it.
