Subject: Re: [AN1x] RE: AN200 editor

Hi Jon,
I've compared my standalone AN Expert Editor (hope you're talking
about the same) with how the AN200 Editor is described in its manual.
Also I connected my AN200 to the Expert Editor. Pressing VOICE brings
up the voices from the AN200, there's no way I can reach the patterns
of the AN200 with this editor. According to the AN200 Editor manual
pressing PATTERN brings up the patterns for editing, initialization,
etc, so there's a bit more to it than just differences in labeling.
Yamaha of Sweden refers me to their downloading pages where you only
find the Mac version, but I've managed to get in touch with sombody
else who will help me. Anyway, thanks for your reply, it helps me
getting a grasp of my new axe.
Lars
