The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

LITTLE DISCUSSED FACT ABOUT THE AN1x SCENES:
If you've got the patch set up to morph between scenes, sometimes selecting
a single scene from the buttons will sound different than when it's fully
selected in "morph" mode.  Another way of saying it is that I've found that
some patches that have both scene LEDs lit sound different if you select one
single scene.  Even with the controller (default is the Mod wheel, I use a
pedal) set fully up or down, that sound is different than when you select
the scene alone by using the buttons.

HOW THIS CAN HAPPEN:
The Mod wheel (or whatever controller you've assigned for changing scenes)
is set in the matrix to do another task besides morphing.  For example, if
the Mod wheel is set to open the filter in the matrix, and it's the default
scene Morph control, then when you move the wheel all the way up - the
filter is opened on the second scene.  This could be percevied as being
louder/different, etc.
Or - it's just a bug in the system and you can't figgure out what's
happening.  Be cool... you've still got a great keyboard.

It's a complicated synth, with a lot of interactive functions.  First you
fall in love with it, then it drives you nuts, then you begin to understand
it better and love it more, and finally you work with it much better.  A lot
like a wife.  :-)
