Okay, anyone following the "Hardware Compressors" topic in the "Mixing & FX" forum knows I'm considering an analog synth. I'm seriously considering the Microcon II, and I'm ready to make a call, and Pongoid jumps in with a recommendation for the Dave Smith Evolver (http://www.davesmithinstruments.com/), which looks pretty cool. Read a couple of reviews and it looks pretty powerful. Problem is it doesn't look like a particularly user friendly synth. Jumping through menus is kind of a pain in the ass, and one of the reasons why I am considering analog. And this Dave Smith deal is not ENTIRELY analog (read the design portion at the website and you'll see what I mean).

Has anyone used either one of the synths, and what are your thoughts on them? Is the interface of the Evolver as difficult as it looks?

If you're talking Pearl Syncussion- rare MEAN! drum machine... but you really have to be into "mean" for that one I guess- hard, long decay kicks that really don't need any further compression imo

I most certainly will. Don't hold your breath, though. UPS says it will be here around Jan 3rd. GodDAMN I hate Christmas time. Screws everything up.
