The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hi Phil 

well i may partly agree but ... 

-- the AN1X can be found for 400 450 euro for as much as i like it 
   i certanily can't say is a classic like a Jupiter 8 or else 
   so i dont feel so guilty in modifying the cosmetics (and if i do it 
   .. i will do it pro-way :-)) .. and maybe is me but i like functional
   mods , they make the things more personal unique and more useful
 

-- the space on the right that u mention is alredy busy with my QY70
   that fits there perfectly !  besides as soemone mention already on
   here ,that space can be use for a dopfer pocket or in my case i tought
   already to strip down a JLC fader master from faders to pots and fit it
   in    ... we will see ! 

-- If i do as u suggest i will loose teh combined funcionality of both 
   pedals and panel control cos i wont be able to wire internally 
   (ok maybe u can replicate the 3 jacks) .. still i would liek to have
   a floating small box around
