About the AN200 Editor

The AN200 Editor is a full-featured editing software program for the AN200 Desktop

Control Synthesizer, providing an exceptionally simple, convenient and intuitive way to

edit and control all of the AN200 parameters. Virtual "knobs," "buttons" and a special

"LCD display" let you change parameters just as if you were operating an actual synthe-

sizer control panel!

The AN200 Editor lets you save your edits as an original User pattern and store up to

128 User. Naturally, you can save the data to ﬂoppy disks or your hard disk drive as

AN200 Files. The AN200 Editor also features a convenient, easy-to-use AN200 Librar-

ian that lets you organize your User patterns.

For general instructions and explanations on how to use the AN200 Editor, see Setting

and Changing Parameter Values and Toolbar. For information on speciﬁc, commonly

used operations, see Operations.

Operations

Selecting an AN200 pattern is the important ﬁrst step in editing. You can select a pat-

tern from the Preset 1, Preset 2, or User banks (each of which contains 128 patterns).

Once you’ve edited a pattern you can store it to the User bank as your original pattern

and save it to a ﬂoppy disk/hard disk drive with other patterns as an AN200 File.

AN200 patterns can be selected from either the Edit Panel window or the main control

panel window.

• Make sure to store your edits to a pattern before selecting another pattern. If you’ve edited

the AN200 Editor parameters and then select a different pattern, all your edited parameters

will be initialized to the default values of the newly selected pattern.

Select “AN200 Pattern List.”

Click the PATTERN button at the bottom right of the main control panel.

You can also quickly call up this dialog box by clicking any inactive part of the win-

dow pressing control key and clicking "AN200 Pattern List" in the pop-up menu. Or,

you can click "Edit" on the menu bar, then select "AN200 Pattern List."

Select the desired pattern.

Click on the desired pattern, then close the dialog box (click the close button) to

return to the main control panel window. (You can also do this by clicking anywhere

on the main control panel.)

Selecting an AN200 Pattern

Operations /

Editing an AN200 Pattern

Select the desired pattern.

Refer to Selecting an AN200 Pattern.

Edit the pattern parameters as desired from the main control

panel.

The main window of the AN200 Editor provides a "virtual" control panel with knobs

and buttons, and lets you edit the patterns much as you would if you were operating

an actual hardware synthesizer.

Store the edited settings as a User pattern, then save it with

other edited patterns as an AN200 File.

Use the Store operation to store your newly edited pattern. Then use the Save

operation to save that edited pattern with other User patterns to an AN200 File.

Both the Store and Save operations are necessary to ensure that your pattern is

saved properly. Failing to do so would be roughly similar to writing a letter but not

putting it in an envelope and sending it. Make sure to execute both operations

when you wish to keep a pattern you’ve edited.

Editing an AN200 Pattern

Operations /

Initializing an AN200 Pattern to the Default Settings

This function allows you to reset all the parameters of the selected pattern to the factory

"initial pattern" default values. This gives you a "blank slate" from which you can create

your own pattern.

Keep in mind that this operation automatically erases all the settings of the selected pat-

tern. If you wish to save the pattern for future recall, use the Store and Save functions.

Select “AN200 Pattern List.”

Click the PATTERN button at the bottom right of the main control panel.

You can also quickly call up this dialog box by clicking any inactive part of the win-

dow pressing control key and clicking "AN200 Pattern List" in the pop-up menu. Or,

you can click "Edit" on the menu bar, then select "AN200 Pattern List."

Select the User bank and the desired pattern to be initialized.

Click on the User bank button, then click on the desired pattern.

Initialize the pattern.

Click the "Pattern Init" button in the dialog box. The speciﬁed pattern is initialized

and automatically selected for editing.

To return to the main control panel window, close the dialog box (click the close but-

ton). (You can also do this by clicking anywhere on the main control panel.)

• If you want to initialize all User patterns, then click on the "INIT ALL" button in the AN200

Librarian window.

Initializing an AN200 Pattern to the Default Settings

Operations /

Storing an AN200 Pattern

This operation lets you store your pattern edits as a User pattern.

• To ensure that your new pattern is available for future recall, make sure to also save the pat-

tern (with other patterns) to an AN200 File.

Select “AN200 Store.”

Click the red STORE button at the bottom right of the main control panel.

You can also quickly call up this dialog box by clicking any inactive part of the win-

dow pressing control key and clicking "AN200 Store" in the pop-up menu. Or, click

"Edit" on the menu bar, then select "AN200 Store."

Select the destination pattern.

Click on the desired pattern in the dialog box. Keep in mind that this pattern will be

erased and replaced with the newly edited pattern.

Store the pattern.

Click the "Store" button in the dialog box. The newly edited pattern is stored to the

selected location.

• This operation deletes the original pattern data at the destination.

• Keep in mind that this operation stores your pattern data only into the User pattern memory

of the AN200 Editor and sends the current pattern’s bulk data to the AN200. The current pat-

tern bulk data will be lost if you select another pattern on the panel of the AN200. If you want

to select a pattern on the panel of the AN200, you should ﬁrst transmit the User Pattern.

(Refer to Transmit AN200 Bulk Dump Data.) There is no need to transmit AN200 Bulk Dump

Data if you select a pattern in the Pattern List of the AN200 Editor, since the current pattern

bulk data is sent with that operation.

Storing an AN200 Pattern

Operations /

Saving data to an AN200 File

Once you’ve edited an AN pattern and pattern to your satisfaction you can save it to an

AN200 File. Each AN200 File can contain up to 128 patterns, and these can be called

up at any time with the Open function. (Also see Calling Up Data from an AN200 File.)

Additional AN200 ﬁles (each with 128 User patterns) can be saved to ﬂoppy disks or

your hard disk drive --- giving you unlimited storage for your original patterns. For orga-

nizing the patterns in the AN200 Files, use the convenient AN200 Librarian function.

Select “Save AN200 File.”

Click "File" on the menu bar, then select "Save AN200 File".

• "Save AN200 File" can also be selected from the toolbar.

Select the desired folder, type in the ﬁle name, and click “Save.”

Once you’ve saved a set of User patterns and to one or more AN200 Files (see Saving

Patterns), you can instantly call up the desired patterns with this command.

To create a new AN200 File, use the New command.

Select “Open AN200 File.”

Click "File" on the menu bar, then select "Open AN200 File." Open AN200 File is

also available on the toolbar.

Select the desired folder and ﬁle name, then click “Open.”

• Keep in mind that this operation loads the User pattern data only into the User pattern mem-

ory of the AN200 Editor. After opening a ﬁle, if you want to play these Patterns on the AN200

separate from the AN200 Editor, you should transmit the User pattern data. (Refer to Trans-

mit AN Bulk Dump Data.) There is no need to transmit AN200 Bulk Dump Data if you select a

pattern in the Pattern List of the AN200 Editor, since the current pattern bulk data is sent with

that operation.

Parameters

Most of the AN200 Editor parameters for editing the AN200 patterns are contained in

the virtual "main control panel" screen. From this main panel, you can also jump to

other windows for controlling additional AN200 functions (such as the Control Matrix,

Free EG, and Step Sequencer).

This is the main control panel for the AN200 Editor, and is comprised of the virtual

"panel" controls, the toolbar (at the top), and the virtual "LCD display" at the bottom.

The master menu (which includes AN200 Pattern List, Store, and the Display Option)

can also be selected from the main screen by clicking pressing control key any inactive

part of the front panel.

To jump to explanations for the desired parameter, click on the appropriate block in the

illustration below.

This is the same as the corresponding command in the Setup menu. It lets you transmit

the current AN200 Editor settings as MIDI data to the AN200. (See Setup Menus, Trans-

mit AN200 Bulk Dump Data.)

Receive AN200 Bulk Dump Data

This is the same as the corresponding command in the Setup menu. It lets you receive

the pattern from a connected AN200. (See Setup Menus, Receive AN200 Bulk Dump

Data.)

Parameters /

AN200 Editor Main Window

• LCD Display

This virtual "LCD" functions just like the display on an actual synthesizer's front panel.

• PATTERN Button

Pressing the PATTERN button calls up the AN200 Pattern List dialog box, allowing you

to select the desired pattern bank and pattern. It also allows you to reorganize the pat-

terns of a selected bank, as well as initialize a pattern --- in other words, this resets all

parameters to their normal values, giving you a "blank slate" pattern to work with.

To select a bank, click on the desired bank button: Preset 1, Preset 2, or User. Each

bank contains 128 patterns. To select a pattern, click on the desired pattern in the

combo box. For a complete list of available patterns, see the Pattern List in the AN200

Owner's Manual.

• Each pattern name is preceded by a two-letter category abbreviation that indicates the gen-

eral instrument group to which the pattern belongs. For example, "Ld" indicates "lead," "Ba"

indicates "bass," "Pd" indicates "pad," and so on.

Indicates the current pattern's bank/num-

ber as well as its category and name.

Full name of the currently

selected parameter.

Indicates the currently selected parameter's value or setting.

By clicking on this third line, you can also directly change the

value by typing it on the computer keyboard. (See Computer

Keyboard.)
