Thank you!
Just a heads up that there is a (seemingly longstanding) bug with the Analog Heat’s MIDI implementation which results in NRPN messages all being divided by 2 when received by the Heat NRPN messages are divided by 2 - #6 by dokev - Analog Heat - Elektronauts. I’ve raised this with Elektron and they suggested they will sort it out, but I’m not sure when we can expect new Analog Heat firmware tbh.

Thanks for letting us know 
Is this the case with the AH MkII, MkI, or both?
I experienced it with the MKII, but I think the MIDI implementation will be on the firmware level so probably happens regardless of the hardware.

The issue is present on MK1 as well.
Btw, for 7bit values (and available as CC) there is no advantage in using NRPN over CC anyway on the AH. To the contrary, in fact. Each NRPN value change translates into three CC messages, clogging the midi connection for no good reason.
Until this issue (NRPN on AH) is resolved I think it’s better to use CC + CC_PAIR for 14 bits. This should work:

Thanks for this.
Input a request in to Squarp for range scaling to be incorporated when using NRPN’s. They said it was on the list to do but no timescales just yet.

Hello!
Pls tell me
Can I use this def with another cc chart (ah +fx)
Or how write part with delay, reverb etc. in def not wrong
Thx!
Hi,
You can use this one and change or add CC if the midi chart is different. If FXs share the same midi channel than global parameters, just add their CC on this file.
Hope this help
Thx u!
But AH part and FX part have a different midi channel
I think I must add 2 files with cc)
In this case, you’ll have to create 2 distinct Instrument definition files yes.
