Well said Phil.

I continue to suggest to people that a collection of synths beats a "workstation-like" unit hands down.� My belief is that if you consider and enjoy what each of your synth's do well rather then lamenting on what it cannot do you would be much farther ahead.� I still love the sounds I can produce from my DX7IID; certainly it does not sound like a Nord or Quasi or JP whatever... heck it doesn't even sound like the AN1X.� But what the DX7 does well it does very well.� Similarly the An1X does a number of emulations wonderfully, but it does not make up my entire palate.

btw: can you find the track with the AN1x :o)

Cheers all - this group is fantastic - I'll post some patches soon
