The lowest cost solution for sysex in/out of the PC is a game port to midi adapter, about $10.  Don't expect it to keep close timing for sequencers, but for simple communication, it should work.

I just took a quick look at some evolution manuals. (1) Some units 
only have midi out, (2) some have usb in/out + midi out, and (3) some 
have usb, midi out, and a game port.

If you have a unit with a usb in/out, you might be able to use it to 
pass sysex data from the computer to the e-mu, if the evolution 
doesn't mess it up.

My guess is that the evolution usb/midi drivers will not "play" the 
midi file properly through the evolution to your external gear.

In any case, I don't see anyway that you can pass sysex data into the 
computer.

What model evolution do you have?
