Subject: Re: RE: [AN1x] Voices

From: DMANX@...
Date: 2003-01-12

Just in case you did not get my last question, here it is again.

I'm having trouble saving newly created voices with added comments in an1xedit.I have created a new user sequence from scratch.Not using any exg voices to start of with.Once I created the voice, I highlight the voice and went to both action/bulk section (in user mode),and pressed send.Then I pressed store current under action/bulk section(in user mode) sections,then saved the file as .anp file.I close down anx1edit,then recall it back again, go into user voices, but cannot find the voice with added comments? But I know which user voice number it is,so I highlight it,click on send under action/bulk, but here a difrent voice,so I refresh synth still here a diffrent voice.So I have to hit send and refresh a number of times till the voice I created comes back.But still with no name or comments on the patch?
Were am I going wrong?
I also heard that you can send sounds of the an150 to XG effects.How is this done,or am I getting cofused.

Regards
Dmanx.
