The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hi !
2 things :
the piano is (with the violin) one of the trickiest instruments to 
emulate with electronics.
the AN1X is a modern "reissue"* of old time analog synths dedicated 
mostly to sound research, more than realistic imitation of existing 
instruments.
This said, you have a good *electric* piano in the factory presets , 
it's called "Whitney E.P." . If you're looking for an acoustic piano 
sound the better way is to get a dedicated expander (Alesis or Kurzweil, 
i know both but you can find others) plugged in your AN1X. Or with more 
room and money, buy an electronic piano with sampled sounds , 88 
weighted keys and so on ....
Cheers
J.F.
*Soundwise, yes, but on an electronic point of view, no. It is "virtual 
analog" , i.e. the analog circuits of yesterdays are replaced by DSP 
based sound generation with real time controls .
