Hi Alan,
".mid" is a MIDI file that may be played from a sequencer to a MIDI
instrument (eg. AN1x). It may contain performance data to tell the keyboard
what notes to play, or special sysex (system exclusive) data such as a bank
of patches. The .mid file you speak of is most likely the latter.
Do you use your AN1x in conjunction with a sequencer (eg. Logic, Cubase,
Cakewalk)? Just import the file into your sequencer, place it into a MIDI
track set to send to your AN1x, and hit play. If you don't have a sequencer,
there's sure to be plenty of freeware MIDI file players. Try

Check the AN1x files section at www.yahoogroups.com for an assortment of
files (.an1 and .mid) to use with your AN1x.
Any further questions, just ask.
Phil

Hi everyone. Very new to all this stuff so forgive me. Use my An1x
for fun only. I love huge phat sweeping synth noises re Polymoog,
Arp, Oberheim etc as used by Gary Numan.
Am now starting to take things a little more seriuosly, so downloaded
An1x edit and have played around with it. Great utility and it works
really well.
However I am stuck with midi files. There was a link a few days ago
re SE&PERCS.MID files from Yamaha. The post said to "load this bank".
I presume this "load" was using an1xedit. Have tried to load in MIDI
banks but just get errors.
Can someone please explain how I do this.
If you think this is a dumb question, wait till you see what I come
up with next :-)
Be well and thanks.
Alan
