Hello Rainbow, I'm not sure if the AN1x has the same facility, but on
the PLG AN it is possible to use the 'part rcv Volume' switch on the XG
host device, so, as I think the AN1x has XG part data then I am assuming
that it is the same for the AN1x

Nope...the AN1x does not respond to any XG data. In fact in the case of
the PLG150AN, it is normally the host that is responding to the XG sysex
and not the PLG card itself (although there are some exceptions to
this).

There is no way to prevent the AN1x responding to volume (or expression)
messages. The only solution is to investigate whether the slaved device
can remap its controller response (i.e. map a different controller to
volume on the slave device). Then you can set the An1x to send that
controller. However, be careful....if you are operating the AN1x in
controller mode2, then almost every controller is mapped to an internal
AN1x parameter (so choose a controller in the range 40 - 48).
