Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hi,

Completely agree with you - integration of synths with software is fraught,
and there really should not be a reason for that at all.

Unfortunately, I've sold my AN200, but have stayed on this List because
it's such a thread of positivity!
I have some other synths, and have promised myself to figure out exactly
what the issues are with automation - is there a common theme? What are the
variances (VST Host, Midi Interface, Synth, CC/NRPN/Sysex - a matrix of
options)? It'll be a technology-focussed evening rather than a musical one
in my bijou project studio.....

Are you using an External Instrument device in Ableton? Can you record CC
movements from the front panel of your AN1X along with midi note data
(regardless of CTRLR)? What happens when you play that back - same 'slow'
behaviour? Are you using something like a Midi Merge box, or a Midi
Patchbay, in between your Midi interface and the Synth?

Make sure you synth is setup to transmit CC from the front panel, and that
you've followed the Yamaha documentation around this.

Then try Reaper! ;-)

Good luck.
