Quick first test... Poly Evolver analog synthesizer

UPDATE: this is not meant to be advertising for the synth! JUST a video of me playing around with my new synth for the first time... So YES that means presets, and sub-par audio recording... I wasn't planning on posting this to YouTube at first. You can make more videos with better sounds too :)

BTW the original video had better sound, but it was compressed heavily when I uploaded to Youtube. I will try to dig for the MiniDV tape

Mano from FutureProducers.com plays with the Poly Evolver Keyboard by Dave Smith. You can listen to more of Mano's music at: http://manuelclement.bandcamp.com/

This video completely destroys the sound of the evolver. I'm thinking of making a tutorial for the evolver, do you think anybody would be interested, or would I just waste my time?

@astroboomboy I think that would be cool! I updated the description. I did not realize that 150K people would watch and camera was just rolling. Next time it'll be better :) ...

Again - people, please don't rely on a camcorder microphone to record audio - make an effort and patch your audio into the video before editing and uploading. This bad camcorder mic audio makes this expensive synth sound like a malfunctioning Juno-106 - total crap!

I just want to hear some serious home-made patches. People need to stop with this preset shit.

@bazrin I had JUST opened the box and ran a quick test. That's should be permitted!

@deeposhin Updated description :)

@bazrin i'm interested in the sounds that come out a Poly Evolver.. So i'm very grateful to Mano...

@astroboomboy so what is the sound of the poly? you seem to know

[spasoft]

Vaya trasto ...

[Lemure333]

@astroboomboy No waste of time in my opinion... have you downloaded the pdf called "A Difinitive Guide To The Evolver"? It's by Anu Kirk....very practical and it may help those learning this muddy beast of a synth...holler

Very good demo

@jockincognito Crap camera sound - my mistake, didn't plan to have 150K people watch it, and camera was just rolling after I opened the box oops! I've updated the video description to clarify what's up. TAKE CARE

@ivikas123456789 I just captured this quickly with a camcorder. I didn't know 100s of thousands of people would watch it and expect pristine production! My mistake :) It sounds much better and there probably are better sounding videos on Youtube. I still had a lot of fun improvising that day. I had just opened the box. unplanned. TAKE CARE!
