From the FAQ, try this:
AN1xEdit will Transfer but not Receive Voices?! (Mac OS 9)
The Macintosh version of AN1xEdit requires the use of OMS (Open Music System)
configured for your MIDI Interface to communicate with the AN1x synthesizer. Under some
circumstances AN1xEdit will not receive SysEx from the AN1x - typically when the MIDI
Interface has been disconnected or reinstalled.
Here's the quick fix to restore communication between OMS and AN1xEdit:
Make certain you are running v1.02 or higher of AN1xEdit.
Double check that OMSLibPPC.slb is in the AN1xEdit folder - do NOT move this item to
your Extensions folder. OMSLibPPC.slb should remain in the AN1xEdit folder.
From within AN1xEdit, under the Setup menu select the MIDI Port Setup... option.
Notice the devices listed in the drop down menu are those defined in your OMS Studio
Setup document. Typically you the MIDI In and MIDI Out options are set to AN1x. In those
instances where OMS and AN1xEdit have stopped communicating - toggle between any
devices other than the AN1x from the MIDI Port Setup... dialog then back again to AN1x
will reestablish the dropped connection.
Also, double check your system installations files... should be like this I beliee:
System Folder (OS 9) -> Extensions -> USB OMSMIDIDriver
System Folder (OS 9) -> Extensions -> FreeMIDI System Extension
System Folder (OS 9) -> OMS Folder -> OMS USB Manager
System Folder (OS 9) -> OMS Folder -> MOTU OMS Driver
System Folder (OS 9) -> FreeMIDI Folder
