two more problems
2000-05-26 by Paul Schilling
Sorry for all these messages right away. I have had two other main problems. This one I don't think anybody can do anything about, but it's worth asking: In my stage setup I slave the AN1x to an external sequencer by setting the VOICE COMMON Tempo setting to MIDI. And for the Delay, I always choose TempoDly. If this setup worked smoothly, it would be so great. But what happens is: a) I get a crackling noise and b) sometimes, not always, the AN1x crashes!! freezes! I have to turn it on and off to bring it back to life. When I change the Tempo setting to an internal clock setting (like 120), the crackling goes away and it doesn't crash. Has anybody else encountered this? Found any solutions? Maybe this is part of the reason they discontinued them. Also, on one of my AN1x's, as soon as I touch the ribbon controller, it keeps defaulting to the lowest (left setting), instead of having the middle be the default. So, often when I touch it, the filter cutoff goes to zero, unless I hold my finger on it in the middle somewhere. On my other AN1x, this never happens. It always keeps the middle as the default. Is this a version problem, or is there a setting I can change? Many thanks, Paul
