The original evolver is a monosynth with 4 oscillators.  There are also 
four 16 step sequencers.  These sequencers can be routed to just about 
every parameter and be used as such for cool step sequence modulations. 
    Seq 1 triggers the envelope for all the oscillators or can be routed 
to another parameter.

So since it is a mono synth, technically it's only 1 track voice wise, 
but you really do have 4 separate sequencers to modulate the sound in 
all kinds of cool ways

The poly evolver rack and keyboard versions are basicall 4 evolvers 
packed into one box, for a total of four voices.

Multiple keyboard, rack, and table evolvers can be chained to allow 
yourself to have more voices.
