Er, the AN1x doesn't have any submenus.

Tuesday or Wednesday, my (silver) EX5 should arrive. Now ∗that's∗ a
synthesiser with a lot of menu's. Six part envelope generators, faster or
slower slopes according to velocity, stuff like that. 'Complex' is a bit of
a eufemism.

The AN1x is beautiful in its simplicity: just press a button and turn a
knob, or turn a knob and press a button. Compare that with a DX7...
