Okay, I'm 99% certain you didn't need to take any action on any other 
env object other than the 'PLG-150AN' object but that's okay - you got 
it working! That's terrific!!! :-)

I didn't test *every* parameter with my AN1x so I can't say off the top 
of my head whether the same is true or not. It works in the environment 
layer _I_ made :-P ha ha ha

The answer is: it depends.

Logic will automatically send volume, pan, patch changes if the 
preferences are set to do so...don't recall where this pref setting is 
made :-( As for the Fader settings, I'm almost certain this can be done 
too but I don't know how without cracking the manual. Think I saw this 
very topic on the Logic users list. I think this is an option you'd 
want to use with some caution, yes? Yes.
