The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hi,
I want to add here that while I agree the Nords sound cool, I'm not sure
the Lead I can do splits, layers yeah but splits I don't think came into
play until the Lead 2.  So there I think the An1x is cooler in that
regard (though the Nords are definitely still cool).
