So if you tell me you have one of these... I bow down before you.... ;-)
It sounds real nice too... 

but it's not a Dave Smith Evolver.... ;-)

  Whoa!
  How'd I miss that?

  Somewhere on the Korg Oasys PCI site, there's the story and picture 
  of the original Oasys keyboard that was abandoned before production.  
  It's great to see them come back to it.

But - It's got a Karma built in.
The Evolver certainly has problems being a backing or comping synth.  There have
been some disappointing reviews about this "killer" module.

I'm gonna stop at the music superstore in DC next week and take a look at the
$8000 Oasys - 88 keys, weighted.
Gotta be better than a piano for that price.

$8500 for the 88 isn't it?
Did you watch the videos of Stephen Kay?...
I was there for some of those... it's sounds better than the video conveys...

Dave Smith's synth, worth every penny... I played with it a few days when I fought off the crowd to get my hands on it... was an item for sure. 

< I got Dave to explain to my wife why I should buy one. He did a great sales pitch to her... ;-) >
