One nice consequence : it's cheap second hand and has not turned into a
collector's item....
I'm amazed too by the sounds it can produce. Unfortunately Yamaha never
issued an "AN2x" with more polyphony, let's say 20 notes, 2 or 3 parts...
Forza AN1x !!
Thanks Richie for your "complete AN1x course", i've tried your tricks
with the waveforms , OK, you get a more than decent Moog or Jupiter 8
emulation at will.
