Subject: RE: [AN1x] Au Revoir

Agreed, it's a keyboard touch I rate about a 3 of 10. Oh, there's lots
worse out there. But the point given that you could just edit the patch to
disable the aftertouch on certain pads is exactly what I've been doing for 5
years.

Further, when I play a lead where I must have the aftertouch working I just
control the AN1x via MIDI from a better feeling keyboard (my 01W). Then,
since it's a lead, my left hand is free to work the ribbon, wheels and knobs
on the AN.

Things could be worse... on April 17 a bunch of us will venture into a large
music store and abuse their synths. At that time I plan on testing the ION
for its feel. IIRC it doesn't even have aftertouch. Again, things could be
worse.
