Thanks for the links! I checked all those that I hadn't already checked; nothing there now but I'll check back from time to time. The Doepfer site has a bunch of cool stuff.
I don't have a production number (whatever that is; there's nothing stamped on the part), I just have the Yamaha part #. This one may well be Yamaha-specific, because it's rather permanently attached to a mounting bracket with screw holes that match up with the associated Yamaha circuit board and the weird-shaped AN1x case.
It's not urgent; this is my "backup/studio" unit. The "gig" unit lives in its case by the door. Given its age and its importance to my setup, I like having a backup ready to go. If the "gig" unit goes down I could always swap out the ribbon, but then I'll be on thinner ice.
Best bet seems to be keeping an eye out for a dead AN1x; never know what other parts might be needed in years to come. ;-)
