Re: HELP! An1x is crazy. Is t here a reset?

2000-11-03 by jondl@jdlx-musique.com

To invoke the Factory Reset: Powering off the AN1x; hold down the 7-8-
9 keys simultaneously; turn the power on (while holding down the 7-8-
9 keys.) The AN1x should prompt you what you want to reset, i.e., 
Voices 1-64, 65-128, ALL, etc. - I don't recall the specific reply 
for each off the top of my head.

Don't forget, a Factory Reset will erase any user edits! If there is 
something you don't want to loose - back up you Voices 1st.  If you 
need a User Manual the .PDF version can be had from the Files section 
here at eGroups.

From your problem description I would *guess* that you inadvertently 
reassigned Key Position or Key Velocity to Pitch Bend or LFO depth - 
something along those lines. If the problem persists after the reset 
I'd email Yamaha Tech Support for help...this problem sounds like one 
previously described on the list some months ago...

Good luck.

Jon
