New Analog (mostly) bank: Sysex, Mid, or Editor format. This bank was originally made for the Evolver Keyboard, but works great in all Evolvers and Poly Evolvers. The sysex and .mid versions will load into Bank 4, so be sure to save any bank 4 programs before downloading! See notes on the news page about this bank. Special thanks to Stefan Trippler for his contributions to this bank!!

New Sound Diver adaptation for Evolver 2.0 OS (40k, .zip)
This version (Oct 2004) was modified by Darren Richards to include features in Evolver 2.0.

Sound Diver beta adaptation PC Version (40k, .zip)
This is a new version submitted by Karl H. Tovrmark (thanks, Karl!!), it fixes up an edit buffer problem, adds envelope displays, and best of all includes a basic waveshape editor! The new editor allows you to display all 128 waveshapes, and edit them graphically. You can then store the edited versions in the user waveshape area (shapes 97-128). It is beta since it has not been extensively tested yet, but please give it a try and let us know. You can try it on a Mac also.

Note that while editting the individual samples, if you grab the slider and drag it, a huge amount of midi data is sent out. As suggested in the window, it might be best to disable midi while editing. Or, you can click on a slider, and only a single table will be sent, which works better than dragging.
