    My DS Poly Evolver is my one of my favorite synths. It’s so fun messing around with sound on this board. Like mad scientist stuff. Love it!

    Evolver is DSI/Sequential's genesis instrument where bits of it's DNA trickled into their later synths. Their most original too. It's stereo signal path and true hybrid voice architecture still make it desirable over their later offerings. They missed out big time by not offering a 20th anniversary version of Evolver.

    Had the pleasure of being house audio engineer when experimental band Suuns came through my city. They had no less than 3 evolvers on stage and they sounded absolutely massive and threatening. Their engineer killed it too.

    Wow, you smashed this thing. Voice architecture is similar to my beloved Tempest.

    Awesome! I recently sold my Evolver desktop to get the MEK and so happy I did. I've wanted one for years now. I learned a handful of very useful tips watching your video so thank you a ton for diving into this one. Always great to see how you twist and mangle a piece of gear so easily - its inspiring!

    As a dad myself, I can relate to the “living childhood dreams with adult income” situation. But not just on vanilla synths.

    Another fantastic gear demo/improv live set. Great stuff.

    Dis’s best synth imho, having panning on the osc makes it sound huge. A glaring omission on the pro 2 and others.

    Rad video and amazing work to show just even a small part of what this instrument is capable of. The MEK was my first synth and Joanne from DSI said she didn't have any left and so she sold me one from their studio / office, which Dave kept around for parts. I now have 8 DSI units and the Evolver is still my favorite. DSI hosted my wife and I at their studio several years ago and it was like touching the monolith. But yeah man, this synth is a wild one.... you have it under control for a minute and with a sharp turn of the dial, it just takes off and you go into sonic soundscapes that make you loose track of where you were and it takes you on a different path. It's all about having fun and man, this synth takes you where you want to go. Thanks for sharing!

    Blush, that machine is ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved it when i first tried and have no logical reason why I did not get it then..Imagine her with an Iridium and sampler!!!!!

  • @oopsgoth

    finally got to crack open a desktop evolver i picked up a few years back and i am so so psyched to be spending my time with it. those three delays easily become choruses and flangers with so many modulation possibilities, and my god those digital oscillators get into some crushed out aliased-ass squelchy belchy places. i was so close to giving up on it because of the tedium and that bad segmented display, but it's forced me to use it standalone and lean into that bonkers analog sequencer. don't miss on the external input too. this thing can mangle anything you send into it esp since you've got the envelope follower and input peak mod sources, not to mention the input hack and the fact you can switch in the distortion before or after the filter

  • @Rxke

    I'm a dad yet I love my MEK to bits. It is so unashamedly, disgustingly dirty it... It often gives me goosebumps that feel like a rash. Strangely enough, ALL the other Sequential synths to me sound too tame to get even a little bit excited about.

    I'd love to get a Soundtower importing waveforms tutorial, I've had one fore over a decade and for as long as I'm making sounds I'll always own some version of this circuit.

    Owned this synth since it came out. Upgraded to encoders. Have the same MIDI cable as 'ol boy up there. Love this unit in every way... except... I really wish they revisited the sequencer. It is annoying to work with. No way to globally ignore the auto start. And not every note should start at C0. Otherwise, this thing constantly amazes me after all this time. Honored to have met Dave Smith at NAMM a few years back.

  • @iharjula

    :O ...I think I need one too.
