The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hi.

Newbie to AN1x here (as to owning, but have been checking them out for 2 years via YouTube and forums, etc)

Got an AN1x off of ebay and have been giving it a checkout, not sure how this is going to turn out, is not quite as advertised. 

The touch ribbon is kind of funky. Works fine on one patch in X direction as to filter opening and such, but is not exactly gradient as to pressure or slide at times in Z. 

When you check it via the Factory Tests, it's clearly wonky...jumps from 128 to 00 for example. Yet can pass, and say OK. Anything I can do to get the ribbon working better when I open it up to change out the battery?

The aftertouch/pressure for the keyboard keys seems completely non-functional in all the programs, key down after pressure does absolutely nothing, however it checks out perfectly gradient from 0 to 127 when doing the factory test? I tested multiple keys.

There a factory preset patch where aftertouch opens the VCF up for instance, or adds a vibrato,  where it clearly should be working?

My OS version is v1.0.2
