The ribbon is supposed to stay in the position where you lift you finger, or what you use.


But mine jumps down to zero.

Subject:[AN1x] New to AN1X


Hello, I recently purchased a AN1X, and am hoping I can learn some of the important things. First of all, it is an amazing instrument, and mostly seems to be going strong for a 19 year old machine. I have two questions to start: 1) I have noticed that the control matrix buttons aspect of programming seems odd, complicated and limited. The seller did give me a CD with the PC editor, but I don't currently have a capable computer. If I have my facts straight, only a Windows computer will work with the AN1X editor? Would you say the PC editor gives you more ease and flexibility? Does it make it worth buying a PC over a Mac? 2) In getting to know the board, I've noticed that when I touch the ribbon strip, whatever it is affecting stays stuck, and won't stop until I change to a different program. Any thoughts, advice, experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
