I'm not sure about the cleanness of the sound. After all, it's supposed to
be an analogue synth. I do know that the AN1x throws a nasty spike over the
left channel when you switch it on or off, but when I listen to it through
my 01v digital mixer and AKG K240M studio monitor headphones, I hear a clean
sound - no noise at all.

The AN1x has more features than the JP8000, as a comparison between the spec
sheets will tell you.

The JP8000 kicks arse in the user interface department, but I'm not even
sure about the waveforms. Supersaw is nice, but there are these 'inner1' and
'inner2' waveforms of the AN1x as well.
