The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Hi,
I've got a Korg Oasys, and, as far as I know, there isn't a linux 
driver that it works with.  It will run on Windows up to ME, but not 
2000 or XP, and on earlier Macs.  The Korg 1212 audio card is 
supported by Linux, though.  

The Oasys is a great card, if you don't need XP. 

I'm finding that the AN200's box is a really good midi knob box for 
soft synths, or my Creamware card's synths.  It's already laid out 
like an analog synth for you.  

Another thing I like is to load up a sample player with 4 channels of 
different percussion sounds, then drive it from the AN200's midi out.

I'm also finding that I would have been fine without a lot of my 
equipment.  There's plenty you can do with one synth and a lower 
level recording package, like maybe Cakewalk home studio, if you want 
to make recordings.  


Pete
