DAVE BRYCE: Hi. I'm Dave Bryce with Dave Smith Instruments, and we're here at the 2006 Winter NAMM Show to unveil our new product: the Evolver Keyboard. Obviously, this is the baby brother of the bigger Poly Evolver Keyboard that we showed last year. However, where this is a polyphonic synthesizer, the Evolver Keyboard is a mono synth. The first mono synth that anybody's actually put out in a long time back to the days of when synthesizers were first introduced.

It's based off our highly successful Evolver desktop. It is basically exactly the same engine, a four-oscillator per voice -- well, per voice -- a four-oscillator engine with two analog oscillators based on Dave's Prophet 5 design, and two digital oscillators based on Dave's Prophet VS vector synthesizer. Brand new oscillators by Doug Curtis, the filters are also Curtis filters, VCA, VCF, a whole bunch of other stuff, but really the best thing about this synthesizer is to let it speak for itself, so I'm going to do that.

Funny little toy ain't it?

So that's the sound of the Mono Evolver Keyboard. It will be available in April when it starts to be shipping, and with a street price of about $1,199. Thanks for taking the time.
