Re: [AN1x-list] NOT EnouGF!!!

2001-05-05 by Ed Edwards

Jan,
You're right.  Sorry.  Who would need 128 patches for a single gig?

What I meant to say was that when I'm composing, there are certain types of
sounds that I would like to search through.  If the AN1x had more internal
memory, this would be easy.  But since 128 patches are all that are
available from the front panel, I guess I will have to get off of my lazy
butt and use the editor to bunch the patches together by "type".  This might
take a while, and it will be entirely subjective according to my personal
idea of what sounds "go together" to make a file.  Then I could load them
from the editor.  When I get the files together, I will stop complaining,
and report them to the group.

Ed

AN1X, but from your thread i sounds like you only have an AN1X. I also play
live, but I have never had the need for loading new patches in the middle of
a gig. Just curious.....why the need for loading new sounds???????
