The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hi Paul

I am not sure why VCA volume should affect the timbre of the voice?
However you are correct that the matrix must be programmed on a per
voice basis.

The output of the card is actually a stereo signal, but for your
purposes I think you can treat it as mono.

The VCO tuning parameters are exclusively wired for control by Pitch
bend and key tracking I'm afraid, so you can't do what you desire with
the chorus controller :-(

GG,

Your hint on using the controller mapping feature of the PLG150AN to map
CC7
to VCA Volume is not bad, and I will use it pending a better solution.
It
has a couple of minor drawbacks 1) Sometimes VCA level affects timbre as
well as level and 2) You have to re-send the sysex after every program
change, or program it as part of every patch.

I tried cutting and pasting the SYSEX into a mixer map control for
convenience, but it didnt work.  My solution now has been to map CC7 to
my
PULSAR2's big mixer controlling the mixer 's faders on the PLG150AN's
channels.

This works, and Im assuming the output from the PLG150AN is really mono
so
cant be panned either.  In this case I will only take the left feed and
teach my PULSAR to pan the mixer channel using CC10.

Another thing I tried was mapping the chorus CC to the PLG150AN's CVO
fine
tuning, but for some reason, that mapping is disabled by the matrix -
any
thoughts as to why ?
