At the same "place", thanks to the "scene 1" - "scene 2" switches!
Select either "scene1" or "scene2", depending on the factory sound you
want to keep, when you edit or store a new sound.
In "normal" use, select one "scene" or the other (i.e. select one of the
sounds) with the switches, not both.
On another hand you can use the mod wheel to "morph" between the 2
sounds, assuming that this controller is enabled in the patch and
assigned to "scene morphing". The default setting of the mod wheel is
the vibrato speed, but it can be assigned to many other things
("morphing", effect parameter and so on..).
Caution !
The "morphing" can give curious (and sometimes awful !) results
depending on the sound stored in each "scene". I got nice results with 2
slightly different sounds (mostly with organ type sounds) . If they are
too different the transition can be horrible, or, if you're lucky, on a
special position of the wheel you get an interesting "3rd sound"
completely different from the 2 others.
Some patches use both "scenes" together... if you write something else
in one the original sound is lost.
If everything goes wrong you can recall the factory presets (see on the
website for emergency procedures).

I'm no "software addict", but IMO you must use the editor, if there is
any way to "translate" AN200 into AN1x. I suppose it's possible, but let
the specialists talk! Never tried, having no AN 200....
