Archive of the former Yahoo!Groups mailing list: The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hello all,
new to the list:
currently i use a MC505 and and an old roland W30 (as my controller)
everything is usually sequenced through cakewalk. The W30 is
getting old, and i am going to replace it. I have read many good
things about the AN1x. Can anyone tell me if i would be wasting my
money here, since i allready have a synth/drum machine in the 505.
My goal is to use it as a midi controller, and use all the phat
sounds that the 505 can't produce.
Oh yea, i have my eye on one thats going for $600 (canadian)

Cheers

Gerry
