Evolver drumsamples for LM4 Mark 2 and other software samplers

Evolutionaries
A set of 300
User Sounds

The Evolver contains 2 analog devices with VCO->VCF-VCA and an additional high-speed DSP that generates 2 digital oscillators and a lot more.
Dave Smith again has developed an instrument that doesn’t only sound excellent but offers pure fun due to an easy to learn user interface.


Some examples of my own sounds:

Mild Maniac

Several Evolver sounds, drums from Stylus RMX

June

I worked up my whole courage to patch together lots of swing grooves and extremely outdated analog leads for a short june demo ;-))

Blue Evo

A short sunday morning blues, Evolver and a little external reverb on some tracks

HALs EEG

The Evolver is not only a wonderful synthesizer but a multipurpose unit. I used it to record my electroencephalogramm through the audio inputs ;-)

Asian Intro

Analog power combined with digital aliasing and noise. Very rough ;-)
13 Evolver sounds, reverb from the Lexicon MPX 100 and some Cubase EQs

Woofertest

Loud !   Evolver and Stylus drums

Roque Nublo

A complete track made with Evolver sounds (including drums). The tracks and sequences were recorded one after another into Cubase VST. A liitle reverb was used for the drums.

Saturation

Evolver and Stylus drums.

EvoMetal

Evil ;-))

Alien Swing

From a hidden room of the Nostromo. Just because noone else dared to use the triolic grooves of the Evolver before ;-)

Hartkern

Cold, distorted, digital. The other Evolver side.

ElectroPunk

Oops

MosEisley

R2D2s first encounter with the dark side. Ouch ;-)

SledgeEvo

Lots of percussive sounds

Evolver at 160 bpm

Analog drumsounds and other abnormal Evolver noises at 160 bpm ;-)

Roundabout

Sounds ;-))

DamnedStraight ;-)

A punchy sound using the stepsequencer and 4 oscs .1 Evolver patch + 1 Stylus drumtrack 

Cavern

an FX-Sound with lots of modulations and the stepsequencer in the 2nd part

Softsequence

not so harsh

Evolsync

2 synced analog oscs and the delay with feedback

Outdated ;-)

Another funny sequence

Lamento

The stepsequencer modulating the waves of the digital oscs

Pulsebass

Analog power emphasized with some digital highlights

Alien Drill

An FX sound where the step sequencer modulates the sound but doesn’t trigger the envelopes

Evotrash

A short improvisation made with 3 Evolver patches recorded one after another into Cubase.

Soundmill

The digital side of the Evolver with lots of delay

Westcoast

In case that Dave Smith takes notice of this piece that uses 4 sounds and the step sequencer with swing timing, I fear he’ll visit me and wipe his signature from my Evolver ;-)

GianaSisters

Jump ‘n run with the Evolver ;-)

SID Kaputt ?

Defective 8bit soundchip, huh ?  Evolver sequence modulated with modwheel, aftertouch and pitchbender of the masterkeyboard

Evolving Rick W.

Typical saw lead line with portamento and pitchbend, analog power !

Phat Sync

No description required

Kitsch

Gameboy ? Stepsequencer

Cornflakes

Another tune from the stepsequencer

Anadrums

The stepsequencer triggering analog percussionlike noises ;-)

LoFi Drums

Another drumsequence, modulated from the masterkeyboard via aftertouch and mod wheel

4 Osc Bass

The characteristic mixture of the Evolvers analog and digital oscillators

Alias Smith ;-)

Now here is what your ear specialist recommends to remove the ear wax: Now it may hurt a little... ;-) Might hurt your speaker membranes too, take care

EvoSax

What’s that now ?

Mellofugue

Huh ? Sorry ;-)  The 4 oscs pitch modulated by 4 stepsequencerlines

Cream

1 Evolver punk patch, solo first, stepsequencer in the 2nd part. Drumsamples from BitBeats

Jingle

Little childrens melody

Trancistor

3 Evolver sounds and Stylus drums

Evolver Reloaded

Short rock tune made with 6 overdubbed Evolver sounds

Friday Flanger

4 Evolver sounds and sampled Evolver drums

Note:
Please keep in mind that the above sound examples are not representative for the unit. The Evolver does NOT always sound harsh, distorted and weird and is NOT always detuned ;-)
The sounds only demonstrate my way of programming and playing.
In fact the Evolver has an excellent tuning stability and one can program all kinds off analog stuff as well
