My AX60 arrived today! Large cheer! Anyway this is a cool sounding synth and I will plan to get a lot of enjoyment out of it. Need to clean it up and re-glue a plastic end panel. Other then that it is fine. I may look for some black paint for metal to cover up the scratches. Well anyway just wanted to let you know it was here.

PEACE!

Can I use this synth to control say NI's Absynth? Or is the MIDI on the AX-60 too limited? I just want to use it to play the Absynth.

Yeah you can use it to control Absynth . The keys , the pitch bend and Mod controls can also be used .

One thing you can do with synths that save to cassette is plug the cassette output into the sound card on your PC and record it as audio data into a file. You can then play this back into the cassette input on your keyboard. You may have to experiment a little with this to get the right level that your keyboard will accept but it can work. Just make sure you have a cassette backup first in case something screws up and you need to restore the presets. The advantage of this is that you have a backup stored on your PC for the future.

Well I downloaded a demo version of absynth, and I was unable too use the AX60 with it. Apprarently you need a specfic MIDI controller too use it.


I wish there were software for older keyboards that would run in a windows enviornment. Although I doubt there would be too many people interested in it.
