Program Notes

Following is a brief description of the 512 sounds in your Evolver. The factory sound set is on the website if you ever need to refresh it. Remember to save your sounds via program dumps occasionally.

Bank 1

Programs 1-69 are sequence programs; all you need to do is hit the START button. Feel free to play around with parameters while the sequences play to get a feel of the instrument. This group of programs is set to ignore MIDI notes coming in, i.e. they are set at the optimum pitch and will not transpose. You can always change the Key/OFF/Xpose parameter to enable MIDI notes if you wish (details in manual).

Programs 70-127 are sequences that do respond to MIDI notes. These will sound different depending on what notes you hit on your keyboard. Many of these sequences will be too low in pitch if you listen without a keyboard to transpose them up. Experiment with different playing styles.

Program 128 is a test program — you’ll likely want to trash it.

Bank 2

Programs 1-127 are sounds meant to played from a keyboard, and have no sequences programmed. They all respond in different ways to keyboard pressure and mod wheel.

Program 128 is a basic keyboard program, with most parameters off. Velocity is routed to VCA Envelope Amount, pressure goes to the filter, mod wheel goes to LFO 1 Amount, with LFO 1 controlling Oscillator Frequency. This can be handy as a starting point, without having to worry about obscure parameters being set. On the other hand, at first you may find it easier to make new programs by editing existing Programs.

Bank 3

Programs 1-19 are droning sounds; they always play while selected. A couple have simple sequences that alter the playback to varying degrees.

Programs 20-29 are signal processing programs meant to be used with a guitar plugged into the Left Input jack. Or, any mono audio source can be used, but with liberal use of distortion, they lean heavily towards guitar use.

Programs 30-39 are signal processing programs meant to be used with stereo audio inputs plugged into the Left and Right Input jacks. Try playing a CD through Evolver with these programs.

Programs 40-79 are an assortment of sequence sounds. Some will respond to a MIDI keyboard, some will not.
