Evolution Uc-16

I rated the Features at an 8 becuase for the price and the software presets that came with the device. It was cool to see that a little thought was put into adding presets for some of the more popular VSTi's out there. The CD came with a few demos of the excellent NI soft synths, and evolution in house CRAP STUDIO V.2 DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DONT INSTALL SOUND STUDIO II. If you even get the application to work, you'll 2nd guess your purchase because it looks like a Fisher Price toddler program. I had to switch it to NT Compatible mode since Im running windows 2000 and the piece of trash became overloaded with my VSTi's and crashed several times. So aside from that, I was very pleased to actually be able to use some presets. The driver install was not as difficult as alot of people on the net claim it to be. It was actually very simple, and I was using it in Reason 5 minutes after it was out of the box.

Price paid: 99.00 with FREE next day air ( www.audiomidi.com)

VERY EASY to use. Plug it in. Activate the midi port. twist some knobs.

Evolutions units are the cheapest I have ever felt. This device is no exception. The knobs are no bigger than an eraser on a pencil, and the indicator dial is solid black, and not very raised. this makes it damn near impossible to take a visual snapshot of your controller config. The box weighs 1 pound, and the back lacks a midi out, although they show you how cheap they were to not include it. I DO LOVE THE LCD SIZE THOUGH. I wish it showed more, but for 100.00 bucks, it's way worth it.

I love the little box. It's cheaper than a phatboy, and you can hook up 5 to one machine. It's a neat device if you need the knobs. However if you have a ton of knobbed devices around the house, just daisy chain those ho's and save the 100 bucks and go to the pawn shop and try to scam something you can make noises with.

I use the UC16 from dernire weeks. J'hsitais between the UC16, the new Spin Doctor Kenton, the Pocket Dopf, and Phat Boy. The Phat Boy is a toy that does not mne trs far the Dopf is strong but the presets are horrible select (dip switch), and I found the Spin Doctor anywhere in France!

Yes, the big question is ngatif the use of small pots while tight on the UC16 ... but frankly the aluminum case is not so cheap as a whole and looks strong enough (at least for the home studio).

Another small dception, the manual is very limited and I think some UMMIT dtails

! Important point!
Information is transmitted by twelve o'clock the USB connection (which also brings his energy the UC16, so no power supply) not need a MIDI input port supplmentaire, and more MIDI Out of the UC16 may be used by the squenceur ... making 16 output channels and more in the Systm! plutt is a cool ...

Operation is a breeze for VSTi ... factory presets are nice, but it is just as fast to its own small kitchen: there at your fingertips and 4 presets CASC direct (one button) control 16 noon on any information midi channel or controls 64 indpendants! Plus of course the 21 presets Autes ...
What a joy to play on the P52 filters rsons

Frankly for 150 Euros (price shop cheaper VPC), I doubt we can do better, even in the same building self.

Well it's been a week since I use it and a part of the installation problem on Win2k Pro I am very glad I play live with Ableton and rewire in Reson and this little controller saves me a lot of dboire with the mouse and switch between the two programs I finally allows manipulation of small live not with my mouse and my keyboard (focus on issues of window ...)
