5 The Evolution Librarian Software

About the Evolution Librarian Software

The Evolution Librarian Software is a Windows PC librarian program developed for M-
Audio products. The program not only works with the Keystation Pro 88 keyboard, but is
also  compatible  with  other  M-Audio  USB  controllers  in  the  Evolution  series.  The
Librarian  allows  you  to  exchange  patches  between  Evolution  products  that  are
supported by the Librarian, so you never have to create the same patch twice.

The librarian allows you to send and receive 10 patches, load and save memory banks,
view  how  individual  patches  have  been  programmed,  and  drag  and  drop  patches  in
order to create new combinations in the 10 memory locations.
