The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Currently dismantling my set up as I am fitting a new floor and 
rethinking the layout. In about a week when I put it all back 
together again, I need some help to achieve my goal.

Kit involved in this project is:
Yamaha AN1x
Ensoniq ASR-10
Yamaha MU15 sound module
Soundblaster Live Drive II on my PC
Midiman Midisport USB 4x4
Sonar XL 1.0
Propellerheads Recycle 2.0
AN1x Editor
Mackie 1202 VLZ Pro

It gets a little complicated to bear with me.

I want to: Send patches to my AN1x via the editor. Currently achieved 
by connecting Live Drive midi out on PC to AN1x midi in and setting 
the editor to SB Live midi port (both in and out)

I want to: Play midi files using sonar thru the MU15 sound module. 
Currently achieved by connecting Midisport A midi out to MU15 midi in 
and setting Sonar Midi out to Midisport A

I want to: Have Recycle connect to my ASR-10. Currently achieved by 
connecting ASR-10 midi in to Midisport B midi out AND ASR-10 midi out 
to midisport b midi in. (it needs both connections to complete the 
circle)

I want to: Have my ASR-10 play both itself and the AN1x to play at 
the same time in a combination of the two instruments (or vice 
versa). Currently achieved by connecting AN1x midi in to ASR-10 midi 
out or AN1x midi out to ASR-10 midi in.

The trouble is with that last item. AN1x midi in and ASR-10 midi out 
are already used to provide me with one or another of the other three 
wants on my list. It means disconnecting cables which is a pain in 
the ass.

I have midisport c and d midi outs available and a, c and d midi in's 
available, but I cannot figure it out how to utilise these ports and 
configure each piece of kit to do what I want.

I hope this makes sense. I have seen some of you guys knowledge on 
Midi which far outstrips mine, so if anyone can help, I would 
appreciate it.

Best wishes
