I have the Access Virus B already, so I'm not sure if
the AN1X is quite unnecessary in my setup. But I don't
know, maybe the AN1X is quite different from the Virus
B (and different from the Korg MS-2000 and Nord
Modular as well)??

Yes, I actually found a site with some d&b patches.
But it would be nice to hear some sound clips from the
synth before I get one. I'm still searching the net
for some sites with sound clips.
I already have three VA-synths, the Virus B, Korg
MS-2000 and the Nord Modular. But I'm thinking about
changing my old Yamaha DX-7 to an AN1X. I would
probably use the AN1X as motherkeyboard. I have heard
that it's keyboard it pretty good? 61 keys (with
velocity & aftertouch)?
I read that the AN1X has a morphing function, which
makes it possible to morph between two different
sounds. I can imagine that this function can create
some really weird and nasty basses. But how
easy/practical is this function? Does it work as you
could imagine it would?
Thanx again for all your answers!
