Re: [AN1x] AN200 As a Synth Module ??

2002-12-18 by Forrest Gore

hey man i own both the an200, and the dx200, and despite what i have read in some reviews they do sound totally different... as far as the an200 being a sound module i like it... limited with polyphony of course... :(  limited controls unless you use the XGWorks/Editor thingy... but you know all that because of the dx200.  anyways I have not had a chance to listen/play the an1x... but the an200 sounds good... i would not say great cause playing anything on my ms2000 sounds cleaner, clearer, and more powerful... but that rough dirty edge that i always seem to get from the an200 is actually a characteristic im starting to enjoy... havent gotten anything close to crystals out of it... yet.  but that is what i bought the dx200 for... $200 for an almost AN1x... i dont see how anyone in the hobby/semi professional arena can pass that up... so much synth for so little money.  :)  anyways thats my little review for ya... later

Subject: [AN1x] AN200 As a Synth Module ??

How is the AN200 as a 5 voice synth module. I've read in this group  
it is very close to or the same as an AN1X in its sound. I can't  
locate any demos that play voices by themselves, only demos in the  
context of the beatbox that it is. And the patch listing out of the  
manual only gives a hint of what the voices are that are programmed  
in the unit. I presently have a DX200 which can do all the DX7 very  
well. I would like to complement it with VA that can do good analog  
strings, horns, pads, etc.  
Thanks for any help or suggestions.
