The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

read the manual if the keyboard can trigger the sequence the midi notes should also i know you can set the clock to external audio so ythat it tracks in time to an drum machine or external sequencer 

but it will only play the sequence loaded for that preset it cant control the sequencer so that you can change it on the fly it will only play the sequence thats in memory you can change the sequence but it will only play the sequence that is already programed that you change to 

your problem is that your playing the notes on the ti trying to trigger the ti sound to the  an1x sequence 

it would be all right if you played the an1x triggering the ti as when you play the notes on the an1x the ti will play the sequence notes of the an1x output you would need the midi out into the midi in of the ti

by trying to do it with the ti is that you are pressing the notes that are trigering the an1x which sequence is running but becuase you are holding down the notes on the ti the sound is playing but not the sequence this is becuase the ti cant retrigger notes that are already pressed this is imposible for any keyboard to do 

have you tried switching the ti to omni off so that it oly responds to external midi so that a external source can control the the synth and not the onboard keyboard i dont have a ti but i can do this on the quasimidi 309 drummachine synth

Specifically i'm trying to trigger step seq patterns in an AN1X from a Virus TI and have them sound on the Virus TI. At the moment I can only seem to trigger them if I use the AN1X keyboard. Any ideas if this is even possible?

  My understanding of the sequencer is that it can only be triggered from
  the keyboard. I remember coming across some posts, either on this list,
  or just out there on the internets on the same subject.

  The sequencer will send out midi data, but it cannot be triggered over
  midi. Check the AN1x manual starting from page 37 (english version).
  There's no mention of MIDI-triggered sequencing, only keyboard based
  triggering.

  Hope to have helped.

  Kind regards,

  Gerald
