Greetings All,

I'm the proud new owner (as of yesterday) of an A6.  What an awesome thing it is.

I've been RTFM and pouring through the archives, but a couple of things haven't made it through my thick skull just yet, so please bear with a couple of newbie questions.

I'm using Emagic Logic as my main midi sequencer.  I found the environment object for the a6 (thanks to whoever wrote that!) and have it set up with the proper bank change messages etc.  

I notice that when in program mode I can only get logic to play one voice/patch on the A6.  Is this actually the case?  It would appear so based on the documentation.

To get multiple voices out of logic, I believe I need to create a custom mix while the synth is in mix mode that enables all of the midi channels that I need.  Is this correct?  Just making sure I get this right.  Is there anyway that I can call what patch is on what voice/midi channel from within Logic while the synth is in mix mode?  Or do I need to define these on the synth itself?

The A6 seems to think a little differently than other synths I own, and I'm still trying to get my head around it, so my apologies if these questions have been answered a million times before.  

I've also been searching around to see if there's an A6 faq to no avail.  Does such a thing exist?

thanks in advance,

jim
