∗ I took a class in college(1975) called "electronic music lab". We
each got 3hrs. of studio time a week to mess with an Arp 2500
modular. Sometimes trial-and-error,tweaking knobs at random can
produce very good results. I believe the college ( now western
Wa.University) still offers the class and probably still has the same
synth! You may want to check schools in your area. P.S. I will be
posting a bank of 64 of my patches in a few weeks. They are done on a
PLG150AN however, so some of them will not sound correct on the AN1X.
Stay tuned!
