Re: [AN1x] Only one knob can move at a time?

2007-02-08 by Rob Hill

This is kinda a weak spot with the AN1x however if you assign the parameters in the mod matrix that you want to tweak to the 8 knobs in the (brown) control mode then I think it works fine this way however I'm not sure if the 8 knobs in control mode will output a steady MIDI CC for recording.
Perhaps use an external MIDI device with the MIDI through on your host sequencer to control the parameters might help.

I'll have a tweak on mine later tonight and try to find any more work arounds.

 The 8 knobs on my AN1x, when more than one is moved at a time, will 
 studder the MIDI CC data instead of sending a smooth stream.  For 
 example:
 
 I've been trying to use the AN1x as a controller to control a software 
 filter.  I have Assign 1 controlling the resonance, and Assign 2 
 controlling the cutoff.  When I move both knobs at the smae time, the 
 midi data from each knob fights with each other.  If I view the data 
 in real time with my sequencer I can see that the flow of CC data 
 becomes chunky.  This does not happen when I move the modwheel with 
 the pitch weel and ONE knob all at the same time.  It appears to me 
 that the 8 knobs on the AN1x can only output midi data one at a time, 
 or else you get a skip effect happening.
 
 Is there a mode that will allow the knobs to send MIDI data at them 
 same time?
 
 Thanks for your help!
