Hi David,

>Thankyou for you reply! You have saved me a lot of time!
>;)

That's what the list is for.

>I did buy it to use as a master keyboard.......is it O.K. for this?

Opinions differ; I'll give you mine.

While the AN1x doesn't have top-of-the-line master keyboard functions
like programmable zones and velocity curves per patch, I find it to be a
very useful master controller. The eight knobs, pedal inputs, and
ribbon controller can be set to any MIDI CC#, allowing control of other
modules and synths. The ability to program different TX and RX
channels, coupled with Local Off mode, allows the player to separate the
keyboard from the sound source and to call up different instruments on
the fly using only the TX Channel button. The keyboard isn't weighted,
making the playing of piano parts a bit strange, but as unweighted
keyboards go, it has a good feel. Despite the AN1x's mostly-plastic
design and light weight, it has stood the test of time for me.

Regards,

-BW
