Subject: How do you guys use the Ribbon controller on the AN1x?

From: Reggie <reggie@...>

Hello all, I am a PLG Owner, but I am interested in the techniques you
guys use for the ribbon controller. I am also interested in how it is
set up. Is it set up automatically, or do you have to assign Z and X
via the Matrix?

What sort of functions do you guys usually assign to them?

The reason I ask is that I have a Playstation joypad hooked up to my PC
at the moment, and I can hook it up to Midi via some smart software that
then allows me to assign the X and the Y Axis to CC's, I know it's not a
ribbon controller, but it will give me something reasonable to be
getting on with as the Playstation analog pad is pretty sensitive with
thumb control. It seemed to work very nicely with Cutoff and Resonance
on the PLG AN, so I get the feeling it's going to do the job quite
nicely :¬)
See ya,

Reggie
