Yes, but the CS1x has only six knobs and more importantly, only
two of those six are user assignable - as opposed to the AN1x
where all eight may be programmed.

Another issue - the AN1x can only have one 'set' of eight Assign
knobs where as some of those 3rd party boxes from Encore,
Kenton, and Peavey can have multiple sets in memory
simultaneously. This permits you to reconfigure the
faders/knobs much more quickly then on the AN1x proper. This
is real time saver if you want to use the same hardware
controller to control more than one synth.
