Soundtower Evolver PlugSE V1.0 1
Welcome!
Thanks for purchasing the SoundTower Evolver PlugSE™ for the Evolver synth from Dave Smith Instruments.
This proprietary plug-in is installed in your audio software as a Virtual Instrument (VST Instrument or AudioUnits)
and will control all of the functions found on the Evolver.
Stunning graphics, intuitive functions and easy-to-use menus make tweaking the Evolver hardware fun and easy.
Most importantly is the ability to automate every function of the hardware synth for synchronized playback with
your session. Adjusting the timing and the values of all automation data allows you to perfect the performance
prior to committing the audio to disk.
The Evolver PlugSE™ Editor features:
• Editing of all Evolver program parameters.
• Automation of all Evolver panel parameters.
• Direct MIDI connection.
• Fully re-sizable editing panels.
• Load/Save of Program Banks.
• Transmitting and receiving of Program Bank data.
• Full Evolver System Exclusive implementation.
• Flexible routings of parameter changes (Automation parameters and MIDI tracks.)
• Recording of real-time parameter changes using automation or MIDI continuous controllers.
The Editor works with any Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) or audio software that supports VST or AudioUnits
(AU) plug-ins. These include, but are not limited to Cubase, Nuendo, Ableton, Digital Performer, Logic and
many others.
Real Time AudioSuite (RTAS) users:
The Evolver PlugSE™ Editor has not been tested with VST-to-RTAS wrappers, and may not work in this
conguration. An RTAS version of the Evolver PlugSE™ Editor is currently in development.
