Hhmm, that's interesting...since the floor model was screwed up I
couldn't really play it the way I wanted to. It wouldn't even respond
to the pitch bend wheel of the controller it was hooked up to. Not a
good sign :-/

I have to say that when I played a CS6x a few weeks ago I missed the
AN1x Control Matrix but when I check out the Waldorf Q I really enjoyed
the extra knobs. There's DEFINITELY more prep time involved with the
AN1x. Have you spent time with AN1xEdit or do you use the AN1x front panel?
The Q and AN1x really sound nothing alike - less so than the Virus and
AN1x so I don't see any point in comparing the two. Especially
considering the price difference. Whoa! Jump back! Think I'll settle
for the upcoming PPG VST Plug-in instead - that's more in tune with my budget.
