Subject: Controlling AN200 parameters Lfo2 Rate/Peg/Osctune from midi keyboard possible?

From: "burryluru" <burryluru@...>

Hello!

I have just bought a second hand AN200 unit that is on its way.
I loved the sound of the AN1x i once had, but i didnt like the
8-knobs interface.

This time my idea is to use the AN200 together with a Edirol
midikeyboard, so i dont just have all the AN200 knobs, but can
also control many of the other parameters from the midi keyboard.

To my horror i just saw that in the manual it seems that the only
thing that has a midi CC# number, is the actual knobs on the AN200.

So in that case, there is no way for me to map, the Pitch Envelope,
LFO 2 (?), Osc Semtitone & Tune settings...

Is this really the case? The AN1X had a fully featured CC# mode where
every parameter was covered, if the AN200 is so near the AN1x, why have
they limited it this way. Or is it just that things are not covered in the manual? On page 118-119 the midi CC# mappings are explained.

But why is there no mention of a LFO2 anywhere in the manual? The editor clearly displays another LFO2. But no mention of it in the manual, nothing on the interface...?

Help please. Can i map these hidden parameters from a midi keyboard?
