Subject: Re: [AN1x] Only one knob can move at a time?

From: Rob Hill <m_moog8925@...>

This is kinda a weak spot with the AN1x however if you assign the parameters in the mod matrix that you want to tweak to the 8 knobs in the (brown) control mode then I think it works fine this way however I'm not sure if the 8 knobs in control mode will output a steady MIDI CC for recording.
Perhaps use an external MIDI device with the MIDI through on your host sequencer to control the parameters might help.

I'll have a tweak on mine later tonight and try to find any more work arounds.

The 8 knobs on my AN1x, when more than one is moved at a time, will
studder the MIDI CC data instead of sending a smooth stream. For
example:

I've been trying to use the AN1x as a controller to control a software
filter. I have Assign 1 controlling the resonance, and Assign 2
controlling the cutoff. When I move both knobs at the smae time, the
midi data from each knob fights with each other. If I view the data
in real time with my sequencer I can see that the flow of CC data
becomes chunky. This does not happen when I move the modwheel with
the pitch weel and ONE knob all at the same time. It appears to me
that the 8 knobs on the AN1x can only output midi data one at a time,
or else you get a skip effect happening.

Is there a mode that will allow the knobs to send MIDI data at them
same time?

Thanks for your help!
