I use all my keyboards primarily for progressive rock sounds.
Do some new age type stuff too and jazz piano and real Hammond.
I have found the moog type sounds to be incredible. Up to this time, the
only thing I would use if not a real Mini-Moog was a Kawai K-3 that I spent
hours (days actually) programming and tweaking. The AN1X is so good at this,
I wonder if I still need the K3. Not planning on selling it though....so
don't ask;-)!
I would like to add that some nice mellotron string sounds can be made with
the CS2X (even though this is OT concerning this particular list...LOL!)
