Sweet Mary Mother of God!!  This is the coolest looking (free) thing 
I've seen for the AN1X!  How do you use it? And I do mean I need an 
explanation like I know nothing about SW / HW interaction (since I 
REALLY know nothing about it:-)  Any advice?

Hi Jimmy,

I use the PLG150-AN, not the AN1x, but it should be pretty much the same as
far as using AN1xedit.  I'm sure Gary will be along to explain it better
than I can, but basically, once you attach your keyboard to the midi
interface on the computer (which, in case you didn't know is usually
avalable as an adapter that connects to the joystick port of the soundcard
for about $15), you just run an1xedit, set the midi in port to be whatever
that joystick/midi port is advertised as (it will probably be your only
selection in an1xedit) and set the output port to be the midi output of that
same card.  There may be a setting or two you have to adjust on the keyboard
itself, but that's really about all there is to it.  There are TONS of
sounds you can dowload from the net.  I think I found about 1200 on my first
day looking...great launch points.

Hope that helps
Blades

PS...good to see another ga.prestige.net person...small world

Hi Jimmy,

I am pleased you like the editor :-)

The first place to start is by reading the introduction sections of the
AN1xEdit help file. If you get stuck you can always post a message to this
group or to my private email (however please keep questions specific....I
don't want to end up writing a book on the subject ;-)

Regards

Gary Gregson
