wow, great news...not only about the reliability but also the
quality of the support.

ok cool. since the shop has a new batch of evolvers on order,
i expect i'll get the latest OS already in it.

i did a little digging around and found some info on that.
4 evolvers in one sounds incredible. i guess we'll find out
the price on it tomorrow?

being that im one to seriously dislike editing rack units. (i can 
never get them in a comfortable place in my studio to edit them)
i think you're probably right about wanting to use a mono evolver
to edit the poly anyway.

if i understand you correctly, the first notch will show the value but
subsequent notches will be smoothed out internally so you dont get
stepping on slow sweeps?
