I just got the Dave Smith Instruments Mono Evolver Keyboard (MEK). It has some really nice sounds...what I did for this video is pick one patch and twist some knobs while the 16-step sequencer triggered away. The Evolver has some awesome analog patches, ambient textures, and cool digital hybrids. Bank #1 Program #64 is a very agressive percussion-bass sound. Cranked up it shook the walls! I zeroed in on the display screen so you could see the parameter I was tweaking and how it was affecting the sound. I wish you could hear how it sounded in stereo and thru my studio monitors...but this will at least give you a perspective on one aspect of this very versatile synth.

Ross Kelly and I both look for a quick fix before applying a permanent fix. For example, the light bulb in my room went out, and I can't reach the fixture, so I've just been setting things on fire. Once my pile of ashes is high enough, I can just climb to the top of it and easily switch out the bulb. Ross, on the other hand, is actually going to show you how he's going to switch out his temporary MIDI fix on his Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 for a permanent solution.
