Hi Tom,
"...So if you request an upload, it works every time?? (that's AN to Mac??)"
Yeah, although I do run into problems switching between my sequencer (Pro
Tools) and back to AN1x Edit. It seems AN1x Edit 'loses' control of the AMT8
(which auto-switches to its 'patchbay/non-computer mode'). This might be an
AMT8 issue though, and is rectified by re-launching AN1x Edit.
"...I'd love to get an emagic interface- but the price is pretty hefty."
Yep, they are pricey, but then it is a 8x8 interface. Secondly, and probably
most importantly, it features the Active MIDI Transmitter technology that
buffers MIDI ahead of time from the sequencer (when used with Logic), and
fires it off at the precise moment. All I need to do now is learn Logic! As
it stands, Pro Tools' MIDI gets pretty horrendous once the CPU is loaded up
with audio plug-ins.
On the downside, via the sequencer/OMS, the AMT8 appears to send MIDI Beat
Clock on either ∗all∗ channels, or none, whereas my old(er) Roland S-MPU64
(USB 4x4) allows specific channels to receive MIDI Beat Clock. With MIDI
Beat Clock active, all the MIDI activity lights flash, making them kinda
pointless, and my Proteus 2000 module (with dual MIDI ins) freaks out by
thinking the tempo is double what it really is.
I can't recall your original post, but if it was Midiman related, did you
approach their tech support? From my dealings with them in the past, they
seem friendly enough, but I understand their Mac support trails far behind
their PC support. Kinda like MOTU and Digidesign for PC.
