If you already have a few analog synths, try some of the features
that are available on the AN1X like the ribbon controller and the
free eg. Those might be available on the other synths, I don't know.
Also try the appegiators, which have some nice paterns.Spend some
time with the synth and you'll get some nice results. It's like the
old days the difference between the Oberheims, the Moogs, etc. The
Yamaha is useful for certain sounds. Check out the modulation
routing. It's pretty extensive.
