The Maker Evolver Editor version 0.1

The Maker Evolver Editor version 0.1

2007-12-16 by themaker4

Hey All,

I've come a long way Creating a BCR editor for the Dave Smith instruments evolver 
desktop.

Matrix 6R editor is still to come as well as an editor for evolvers sequencer!

So it's time to release the first version into the world.

Some interesting features include:

Envelope 3 + routing, LFO 1 + routing, fine tune, mod matrix, and quick wave shape 
selection buttons for both LFO 1 and the OSCS to give you a more classic synthesizer GUI 
feel!

Printing out the modulation source and destination sheet is a must for using this editor to 
the max.

I've posted it together with a parameter sheet (handwritten as the behringer template 
sheet pdf doesn't support saving ?!??!?@? Thanks again Behringer! ) as a zip file in the file 
section. 

If you guys want to see the text file drop me a line or use your own sysex to txt 
converter....

The sysex file still gives one error at the start of transmission. If you know what I did 
wrong there  please let me know...

Don't rush to the file section right away cause iI'd like to ask a question about my BCR:

Some encoders don't seem to lock to a value. when you fine tune something it sometimes 
spits out a value 1 above or below the value you selected. Especially with selectig for 
example routing destinations this can be a pain in the ass....

Is this behaviour normal or is my unit malfunctioning? (by the way I use lots of ranges that 
are not 0-127 could be tricky....)

Enjoy

There is a missing ' in the name but that won't cause the error
$preset stuff
.name 'DSI Evolver ;
should be
.name 'DSI Evolver '

.fkeys oncut
should be
.fkeys on

$encoder 54
.showvalue on er

the er shouldn't be here

If you use the latest version of the editor, when you send the preset and there is an error, a button next to the SEND appears.
Click this "Read Errors" button and a list of errors will display.
Double Click on the error line and you will be taken back to the editor at the line that the error occured.

You have set the resolution to the same value for all turning speeds
try
.resolution 25 48 96 96
Turning it really slowly will only change the value by 25 in a full turn
Turning it slowly will change the value by 48 (half he 96) in a full turn
etc

Pity I don't have a n Evolver, looks great, well done.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
