About the Presets
There are 512 Programs and 384 Combos in your Poly Evolver. The factory
sound set is on our website if you ever need to refresh it. There are additional
banks of Programs at:
Remember to save your sounds via program dumps occasionally!
The Programs are not set up in any particular order, so you might just want to
listen through them to see what you like. Bank 4 programs are used for most of
the combo sequences, so some may not make sense as a program.There are
some test Programs at the end of Bank 4 that you might want to erase. Also,
Program 128 in all four banks is a simple basic Program that you can use as a
starting point.
Combos are also mixed, again with some test Combos at the end of bank 3. You
will also see that there is only one bank of Combos. You will likely want to make
your own Combos based on the specific combinations of Programs that fit your
music.
When using Combos, remember that changing a Program will affect any Combo
that refers to it.
The Programs and Combos were collected from previous Evolver and Poly
Evolver Rack patches, and a bunch of new ones were made up for the keyboard.
