Right, the problem is not severe enough to worry about a repair at this late date.

I can appreciate your aggravation. When I had the repair performed by Yamaha - way back
when - it took much longer than was necessary because the dealer had not actually sent it
to Yamaha as they told me they had for many weeks on end(!) Yamaha on the other hand
was great and turned over the repair in two weeks.

I think there are one or two 'old timers' still on the list who have lived with the issue for
years. It doesn't appear to have any long term, catastrophic effect on the synth. If memory
serves, I think Peter K's mentioned the output of his AN1x will sometimes degrade into
stactic noise once in a blue moon, but a reset clear the issue.
Hope this helps.
