Greetiings All,
I'm getting back to my AN1X after finally having one of the assign knobs replaced (Yamaha Canada still has them in stock), and thought I would check out some of these new voices in the AN1 format. While some seem to load just fine, others such as this Mellotron set, trigger a "wrong file version" error message. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm using the An1X editor (version 1.1) running under WIndows XP. Is there a more recent version of the editor?
Thanks!
Chris
