Hello Joshua,

MIDI CC assignments for real time controllers are made under the UTILITY/SETUP menu.

1. Set the ASSIGN Knob to Utility/Setup.

2. Use the Ctrl Device button to scroll through the options until you see FC in the display.

3. Use the adjacent button, Ctrl No, to increment the assigned MIDI CC value to 40.

4. Make certain your Creamware Minimax is set to receive on the same MIDI Channel the
AN1x is set to transmit on, i.e. CH 1 <-> Ch 1

Be aware the settings you make to Ctrl Device and Ctrl No are global assignment and as
such, the AN1x will also respond ∗if∗ you have made an assignment in the Ctrl Matrix
(found under the SCENE/SCENE SETUP menu) for either/or the FC or MIDI CC #40.

Regards,

Jon
