Re: [AN1x] Hello! New an1x owner aboard!

2006-08-22 by Rob Hill

On some patches the knobs are assigned as controllers (like the ribbon, mod wheel ect) in the assign mode so they just act as a control rather than a proper sound parameter edit (like VCF cutoff, ASDR ect). 

Use the mod matrix to have more than one parameter assigned to one or more knobs at different rates. This is where the untapped power of the AN1X lies. ;-)

 and thanks to Jon,  Jeff and Sergiy (thanks again for the piece of 
 advice) now  i have second hand an1x with all the factory settings 
 restored. well, considering the price i paid (300$) maybe it's not a 
 wonder, that this board has some problems but i'm in Korea now and 
 it's not so easy to get understood even at the biggest musical store 
 in Seoul. So i decided the proper maintaince to be done when i come 
 back in my country- Bulgaria. About the problems - they are three:
 - DC jack sometimes just switches the power off- it could be 
 expected since this is obvously an old and not very gently used 
 board (it even has a crack on the rear panel) so it needs a change;
 - volume knob causes scratches sometimes, maybe just needs to be 
 cleaned;
 - ribbon controller sometimes behaves kind of strange- sometimes it 
 changes the sound without touching. after ignoring it in the system 
 settings menu i don't experience such a problem anymore, but losing 
 this so expressive controller is not a good idea. maybe again some 
 dust or something...yeah you may say didn't you notice all these 
 things when you were taking the board..obviosly i didn't..i was busy 
 to enjoy the beautiful yamaha sounds. but i hope it all can be fixed.
 one more thing: sometimes when i tweak the knobs changing some of 
 the patches "edit" appears on the screan, but sometimes it doesn't. 
 could you explain me why? many thanks again!
