Subject: Re: AN1x editor for Ctrlr - AN200 Version

The best reference I have found for the differences between AN1X and
PLG150-AN/AN200 is here, which copies from another (now missing) thread
by someone called jondl_2000 [:)]

Key differences for voice editing:

1. The major additions to AN for the PLG150-AN is the introduction of
the VCO cross modulation algorithm and new oscillator wave forms
(Multisaw, Triangle, Sinewave.)
2. The AN1x second Scene is not available on PLG150AN. This will not
affect most AN1x voices, as it is common for only a single Scene to be
used (the second scene providing a variation for morphing or
accompaniment). Note that Scene morphing can be replicated by creating
two voices from the original AN1x voice, each containing one of the
original scenes. Thereafter store these as two separate voices on the
PLG150-AN and use the program scene morph feature of the PLG150-AN
device.
3. Layer/Split Modes - the PLG150-AN only supports Single and Unison
mode.
4. Effects - The PLG150-AN only provides AMP SIM variation effect and
EQ. If the original AN1x effects are important to the voice they must be
recreated using the effects unit of the host device (e.g. CS6x,
SW1000XG, MU100, MU128, S80 etc).

So the main difference in a voice editor would be item 1 (VCO mod/wave),
with the others subject to their importance to you.

Hope that helps

Bill

Check the Help File of AN1x-edit - I think there were some particulars
listed for each of the AN1x, AN200, PLG-150AN
