Martin,

From your problem description I would hazard a guess you're not editing the Scene 
you intended to - double check the Voice is not in Dual mode. I often overlook Dual 
Mode and wonder why my edits are not effective - typically I'm editing the wrong 
Scene in my Voice.

If the problem persists, and you've double checked the Mode is Poly -not Mono or 
Legato - then I would suggest reinitializing the AN1x to it's factory default settings.
