Okay, I think I got to the bottom of the problem, not that I really 
solved the problem. The amt8 has two modes of operation 'PatchBay 
Mode' and 'Computer Mode'. They are exclusive to each other. So, I 
can't use ANY editing software with the amt8 AND have it work as a 
patchbay. The only way around it is to use a different midi device 
out of the pc into the amt8 so that the amt8 does not go 
into 'computer mode'. I read and reread and I don't see a way around 
it. Fortunately I have another (usb) midi device that I can use this 
way, it turns out that I have to do it for my Nord Modular editing 
software too.

Thanks everyone for your help.
