Yes, ‎I connect using a midi to USB adaptor. It's connected to in-out midi port of the An1x to USB port on my MacBook pro. The adaptor doesn't have a midi driver firmwire. 

‎I reckon adaptor needs to be replaced. Any reccomendations? 
How do I set buffer sizes for sent and receive on Logic?
Also, I'm new to SysEx message. What is the implication of the SysEx midi message.  Spare me of my elementary question.

Cheers!
Amos

How are you connecting the AN1x to your computer.
I suspect it's via a USB to MIDI adapter.

The trouble with many lower cost adapters is that they're not really very well coded.
All sorts of messages can get garbled, especially SysEx messages.

It's really worth while going for a quality adapter which comes with it's own MIDI driver firmware.
That could well solve your problem.
Also setting buffer sizes for send and receive within Logic may make a difference, especially again for SysEx messages.
