The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

I appreciate you taking the time to get back to me.

If I'm following correctly, there is a verion of the AN1x Editor 
that runs in Win XP? From my searches here, I thought I'd gleaned 
that the original did not work w/in XP.  Has there been an update to 
XP that I overlooked? 

Thanks again in advance to any/all insights.  Given my nosing 
around, ya'll are a very considerate bunch in terms of fielding 
questions.  And the archived resources linked to here are killer.

BTW, despite my problems w/ dl'ed voices, working w/the step 
sequencer to create bass lines has really been working out well for 
me.  I do ambient/dubby stuff and I'm pretty awful at getting 
basslines to sit right playing 'em on my own or trying to "step 
sequence" w/ hardware or in Cubase, etc.  Working w/ graphic 
interface, I go into AN1x and then midi out to RS7000.  Tune all 
sixteen to tonic, then start tuning, gating and working velocity and 
rests, along swing function in RS.  I've only been at this approach 
for a couple of days, but it is definately my preferred method now, 
hands down.

AN1xEdit has not been updated in some time, but there are many more 
success stories then failures reported to the list running under 
WinXP.  Check the list archives again and you'll find some tips for 
getting the install to complete.

Regardless, as you've found firsthand, AN Expert Editor will NOT pass 
the sysex to an AN1x with predictable results.

And yet another round of thanks for the clarification Jondl_2000.  
Got the AN1xEditor up and running last night. (Don't know where I 
went wrong on the first attempt to intall it....)

Then took advantage of the wonderful repository of voices this group 
has assembled. So thanks to all involved.  

Now that I'm integrating the AN1x in to my live rig, I'll probabably 
be checking in more regularly, perusing tricks and tips, etc.

Take care. Long live the Blue Beastie!
