While this is possible, the fact that the AN1x has a "hard" (on-off) power
switch, as opposed to the "soft" switches used on PCs and TVs, makes me
think that it's a true on-off switch, and that no power is available in the
off state. Also, the manual states that if the unit starts acting strange,
or smells/smoke appear, then the user should turn off the power switch
immediately; this implies that the power switch completely isolates the
synth form the power supply.
Perhaps the statement you are thinking of refers to the fact that the
battery doesn't drain when the unit is on?
