Thanks for the reply.
I was hoping to use my AN1x as a control surface for som VST soft 
sythns, but not being able to move more than one knob at a time 
without MIDI CC skips won't give me the results I am after.  Looks 
like I'll have to spend the money on a new controller....  I am 
surprised this has not been pointed out much before (I did quite a 
bit of searching on the web and found nothing).

Thanks!
Ras
