The arranger section represents the heartbeat of EVM. It allows you to perform incredibly realistic live
performances and to build and produce your songs in the “EVM studio,” accessing a vast Database of

streaming; in this scenario, the realism rate reaches heights never reached before in an
arranger. However, it is possible to combine MIDI tracks with audio tracks or replace them
and keep them in sync with the Midi clock in real time.
