As Joel indicated, this is normal when using the Arp/Seq or Free EG to
alter settings.  Don't worry about it.

As Peter mentioned it is a hardware problem known to Yamaha and can be
serviced.  I've had the repair performed and detained the experience on
my AN1x page http://www.jdlx-musique.com/

There was some minor debate - well over a year ago on the Teklab list -
whether the problem became worse over time or not.  Personally, I'm glad
I had the repair performed but I don't know that it's necessary to
ensure the longevity of your AN1x.
