Hi all,

thanks for sharing your ideas.

that's exactly my impression: it is like different serial data streams 
getting into trouble with each other. strange thing about that problem 
is that obviously only AN1xEdit seems to have those problems. could it 
be that the program is sending commands too fast too soon, like: "hey 
synth, send me patch #1, hey synth, send me patch #2, oops, here comes 
patch #1, hey synth, send me..., oops, here comes patch #2 - don't 
know where to put it- HELP!"

currently i use the one and only midi interface that comes with my 
sblive (1xIn, 1xOut). but as you speak about it i remember that there 
must be a Motu 4x2 for a parallel port lying around somewhere in my 
rehearsal area. I'll try that and see if it helps (maybe even SBLive 
Out ==> AN1x In, and AN1x Out ==> MOTU In?). 

I'll keep posting any results
