I'm on a G4/400 OMS 2.3.8 AN1X editor 1.1 G-port w/Midi 
Timepiece II
OMS and the MTP see the AN1X just fine. when I test the device 
in OMS setup I hear sound. Further, when I play the AN1X  I get 
signal to my MTP. But when I try to send a patch or a bank-or try 
to receive a patch or a bank I get the "receive error" dialog box.
I checked the midi device # in OMS and the AN1X, that all sems 
right. There doesn't seem to be any "write protect" type setting on 
the synth. I'm out of ideas. Can anyone help???

Had the same problem. It's easily fixed.

The following solution is documented on my website http://www.jdlx-
musique.com/support/an1x/tt_receive.htm

To summarize:

From within AN1xEdit, use the MIDI Port Setup function under the 
Setup menu to select the AN1x from the list of devices. These devices 
are the ones defined in your OMS Studio Setup document. I've found 
that on occasion toggling back and forth between a device other than 
the AN1x and then back again has been necessary before AN1xEdit will 
receive data correctly. 

AN1xEdit loses the connection to the AN1x definition in OMS *every* 
time I make change or update my current Set-up Doc. The first time I 
had this problem I'd just switched MIDI Interfaces and it took me 
weeks of playing around until I found the answer! Now I just toggle 
between devices in AN1xEdit and it immediately reestablishes 
communication.

Let me know if you still have problems and I'll try to help.
