Subject: Second note won't sound when first key is still pressed

From: "martinez21" <martin@...>

Hello all. I've just taken a bass sound on the AN1x and started
fiddling around with it, as you do of an evening. I noticed that when
you have one key pressed down, if you press another no note is
triggered. I thought it might be due to the fact that it was in mono
or legato mode, so I changed that to Poly and, just to avoid any
other complications, I made sure Portamento was off and I switched
Layer from Unison Dual to plain old Single. And yet the situation
remains - I can play a three-note chord, say, but when I go to change
one of the notes (with the others still pressed down), I get no noise
from that new key.

I've fiddled around with some of the parameters, opening up the VCA
and VCF envelopes, for example, but that doesn't alter it either.

I've probably overlooked something simple here, as usual. Any ideas,
clever people?

Cheers,
Martin
