chords with one key

chords with one key

2013-04-06 by murkobazko

Hi AN1X fans.

Could you please help me with my issue?
I have a bass multiefect pedalboard sending MIDI to our beloved AN1X.
I can play single notes with it or trigger ARP or SEQ. 
Is there any possibility to set up AN1X to play multiply notes (keys) at once (like chords) with one MIDI signal?

I know that some software would help, however I would like to avoid any PC component during the stage play.

Thanks in advance.

The AN1x can play arpeggiated chords but does not have chord memory like a workstation. You would need to use a DAW to play chords remotely.

Here's a way to cheat:

Voice 1 osc 1 pitch=0 osc 2 pitch=4 or 7
Voice 2 osc 1 pitch=4,7,or -5, same options for osc 2.

Now the synth makes a chord with one note.

I've seen things like that done on the Korg MS-2000. Clever. Limited, but works in a pinch.
