I've heard complaints on the list about the AN1x keyboard many times. Specifically, what don't you like about it? Personally, it's one of my favorite keyboards for leads and such; I like it way more than the one on my old D-50. I've been using it as a master keyboard for several years -- by choice, rather than necessity. Granted, it's not weighted, or even semi-weighted, but neither was that of most Moogs and ARPs.
