Right-click on a memory to view the contents. Please note that it is not possible to edit
the contents of a memory. The Sys Ex librarian will simply allow you to rearrange the
order of memories, or copy memories between one memory dump and another.
Once you have named all your presets, and organised them in the desired order, click
’save’ to save the content.
Alternatively you can click on the File menu and select save to save the file with the
previously assigned file name, or save as to assign the memory dump a new file name.
The shortcut key to save Bank 1 is CTRL+S.
Make sure you give the file a name which allows you to quickly identify your collection of
setups.
To load a memory setup file back in to the librarian, click on the ’Load’ button and select
the required file. The loaded preset setups will appear in the Bank Window. You can
then either send it directly to the Evolution device by clicking send, or edit it.
Alternatively, select Open from the File menu.
The shortcut key for loading is CTRL+O
We strongly recommend you register your ownership of the Evolution Librarian if you
would like to be kept informed about future development. As you can see from the version
number, the software is at an early version 1.1 stage and we will continue to work on
enhancements for the software.

Evolution X-Session Advanced User Guide
The 10 assignable buttons can each be assigned to toggle between two values. You
may for instance want to send out value 15 when you first press the button followed by
value 74 when you press the button for a second time. This is how you do it:
1. Press the Function button labelled DATA MSB 2 times.
2. Type in 15 using the numerical keypad or the +/- keys.
3. Press the Function button labelled DATA LSB 2 times.
4. Type in 74 using the numerical keypad or the +/- keys.
If you want the button to send the same value every time you press it, simply type in the
same value both times.
As already described, the standard MIDI controller numbers range from 0 to 131. We
have extended the list of MIDI CC’s that can be assigned to the controllers of the
X-Session to include RPN/NRPN, MMC and General MIDI 1&2 SysEx messages.
These advanced messages are as easy to program as a regular MIDI CC instruction by
entering values 132 to 152 when programming MIDI CC’s. The charts on page 8 and 9
(or Appendix B) show you what number correspond to each message
To program the values required for these advanced messages, the X-Session requires
you to press the PROGRAM, DATA LSB and DATA MSB buttons twice respectively.
Pressing only once will send the program and bank change instructions “on the fly” as
described earlier.
Lets look at a couple of examples to see how this works. Please refer to the chart in
Appendix B so you get to grips with the principle:
1. Select the button you want to control the MMC message.
2. Press “ASSIGN” on the X-Session.
3. Type in “149” using the numerical keypad.
This is the number that corresponds to the MMC instruction, as per the chart on
page 8 and 9.
4. Press “Channel” once.
5. Type in “127”, using the numerical keypad.
This ensures that the message is set to all device ID numbers. For more
information about this, please read “About SysEx Messages & Device ID”
on page 13.
4. Press the “DATA LSB” button twice.
5. Enter a number from the chart on the next page to select the MMC
message you want:

- F17 controls the volume of the top drum module while f18 controls the volume of the bottom drum module this means you can flick between the two modules by flicking the fader far left or right since when f17 is 0 f18 is 127 and when f18 is 0 f17 is 127 5

- The cross fader can be assigned to two midi cc values by editing f17 and f18 when it is moved both f17 and f18 will be sent out f17 will increment from left to right while f18 will increment from right to left so f17 and f18 work against each other as an example this has been put to practice in the rebirth preset 5
- To mute all controllers and the cross fader press the ctrl mute buttons this allows you to alter the position of the controller without affecting the settings of your software ctrl mute does not affect buttons and as soon as an assignable button or a function key is pressed the controllers are turned back on alternatively you can press the ctrl mute buttons again to turn the controllers back on when you first press the ctr mute buttons you will see the lcd display off chang ing the position of a controller with controller mute engaged the lcd will always display off to indicate no data is being sent out by the x session to cancel the controller mute function simply press a function key or keys or one of the assignable buttons this is a very useful feature if you are switching between presets on the x session with the controllers out of position you will be able to move the controller to a position relative to the software s controller value rather than causing the software s controller 5

- Before you can assign a midi cc to one of the x session s controllers you will need to select it for editing there are 2 methods for doing this 1 press control select the lcd will display the controller symbol the symbol will be flashing to indicate the controller settings can be altered the 3 digit display will show the number of the currently selected controller proceeded by a c or an f if the cross fader is selected 2 type in the number of the controller using the numeric keypad or the buttons or move the cross fader rotary controller simply moving a fader rotary controller will make it the currently selected controller ready for editing to select the second cross fader controller value f18 please use method 1 it is also not possible to select any of the 10 numerical buttons by pressing them since during edit mode they are used to enter numerical values to program these buttons please use the first method 9

- As you can see from the screenshot of the librarian on page 20 you can save load receive or send the complete content to and from either bank columns to transmit the complete content of your evolution x session to the librarian simply press the receive button on the librarian software this process can only be completed successfully if the usb drivers for your x session have been selected correctly as described in the setting up the librarian software section once you have received data from the x session the memories are displayed in the column 12
- Assigning rpn nrpn to a controller 12
- Before you start using the librarian check that the x session has been selected as input and output device 1 select midi setup from the options menu 2 ensure the usb driver for you r evolution x session is selected in the inputs column if you are using native drivers this may be named usb audio device 1 in the outputs column select the usb driver for you r evolution x session if you are using native drivers this may be named usb audio device you should now be ready to use the librarian software with you evolution x session 12

- You can name the memories as you like to re name a memory double click on the memory you can then move memories around by dragging them to a new position or using the copy buttons between the two windows these buttons are defined below will copy the selected memory in bank 2 to bank 1 will copy the selected memory in bank 1 to bank 2 will copy all memories in bank 2 to bank 1 will copy all the memories in bank 1 to bank 2 will undo the last copy you made only the last copy is remembered it s a good idea to decide which column is your master column to avoid confusion and maybe loosing hours of work 12
