The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hi all,

This is probably a newbie question considering I'm new to this list 
and the PLG150AN.

I have tried everything that I can think of (using my not so advanced 
understanding) and read through, so thought I'd try and ask 
directly ...

I want to be able to get XGPad, Cubase (or other sequencer) and 
AN1xEdit to run simultaneously so I can dedicate just one (for now) 
channel to the PLG150AN and the rest to the patches on the SW1000XG. 
Up to now I've been making my sound with AN1xEdit and then exporting 
it to a .mid file and reopening it in Cubase so the sysex messages 
get loaded after I've played the track a bit. This is fine(ish) but 
as soon as I pick a sound in XGPad on Channel 1 (or reopen it after 
restarting) it removes my hard work and I'm back to the Grand Piano 
sound. Do you get what I mean ? Heh.

Basically ...
I want Channel 1 in Cubase (Cakewalk, or Logic Audio) to be used to 
control the PLG150AN (AN1xEdit controlled) and the rest for the 
soundset on the SW1000XG  (XGPad controlled) without it deleting 
everything afterwards.

I have tried using Hubi's loopback device, but tbh I dont get it at 
all, heh. 

Hope someone can PLEASE PLEASE help! (How can I make good dance 
tracks without it!?) heh.

Hi again,

It's ok, I've worked it out. Read Gary's howto in the files bit.

Hello Happs,
Glad you sorted through the Docs directory on your own and 
found Gary's tutorial. Did you download the PLG150 PDF too? 
FYI - there's plenty of PLG150AN (and some SW1KXG) 
discussion to be found in the list archives if you need to do a 
Search. Welcome to the list.

regards,

Jon

Hi Jon,

Had a look through all the files - some great info there, nice 
one :o) Now I got it working I can't wait to start producing some 
proper tunes (when no one is home to tell me to turn it down that 
is :D * ). Been using the SW1k and producing for ages (had a record 
deal at one point) but never had that proper nice synth riff that 
I've always wanted :o) Don't know what your policy is on giving out 
links to Real Audio streams so you'll just have to wait till you see 
me on MTV, hehe.

Anyway, take care and cheers ;D

- Happs

* Anyone got any advice of what I should buy in regards of monitor 
headphones ?
