Evolver wavesequencing

Evolver wavesequencing

2006-09-19 by altemark

Better method for wavesequencing in evolver should be pretty easy to
implement. This is a mail i sent to Dave Smith, and his reply. If
other people showed their interest in this feature it might get
implemented! 

It would be very nice to be able to not only have the digital
oscillators of the evolver, but having them for example 
do that harsh emulation of a filtersweep by stepping through waves,
don't you agree?

Hi Mikael- Thanks for the note; it does seem to be a limitation, and
we'll take a look in future releases and see if we can come up with a
good solution. Then again, you seem to be the first one to notice!
Cheers, Dave Smith
