The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Knobs are so 70s. When are we going to get something cool? The Kaos pad 
comes close. Perhaps a pyramidal Kaos pad that floats above the 
keyboard. 

Jimmy

An open sided quark-a-hedron translucent thing that you play from the 
inside; bumping, rubbing, plucking, strumming and whacking on the 
surfaces that light up in unique colors as played.  About as big as a 
bowling ball, and again like Jimmy says - suspended above the keyboard.

BTW - when I saw Rush in 04 their visual effects guy was controlling the 
display with a Kaos pad.

Doesn't Roland have those beam controllers on some/most of their
keyboards/synths? Not quite a pyramidal Kaos pad, but at least something
spatial ;)

(Btw, isn't an open sided quark-a-hedron translucent thing with
fluerescent unique colors rather........ 70's/80's as well? I have a very big
Buck Rogers association with such a description)

Those are a lot of fun. I believe Alesis had something similar with their Air FX, but not MIDI 
Out :-/ Don't know if it's found its way onto their latest synths...

So, you think that your '80s Buck Rogers reference eliminates my powers

Can you perhaps take this kind of conversation to your personal email?  
The subject matter seems more personal and less about music, the AN1x, 
or it's applications. 

Thank you

This is your 2nd post to the group, ever.

In your first post (in February), you asked for some info on AN Expert 
Editor.  Two people responded to you and you NEVER bothered to thank 
them or even reply back.  That's bad form in a group because your 
response may have helped someone else solve a problem.

Anyway, give people enough room to enjoy themselves now and then, huh?

Sounds good.

Sorry folks for any offense. 

Thank you all for help and information.  Clearly a group like ours is an 
important educational resource.  Never want to sell this short.

Hello Friends.

Could I ask you about the DC adapter for Yamaha AN1x? I need to buy some one, but I am not quite shure about all parameters for this one. 

What's about input? Is 500 mA enough? 

Thank you very much...

Hi !
you need a 12 V DC - 700 mA supply  with the "+" on the center pin of 
the connector .
You can find it easily in any computer , TV or DIY electronics shop . 
For the current if you find more (1 amp for example) it's not a problem 
, less than 700 mA could lead to bad operation of your synth , specially 
with everything possible plugged in (headphones , pedals , line out ...) 
. But you can try , it is harmless : on the worst case it cannot start 
because of the lack of current , like any car when the battery is out .

<snip>

This is correct - the US model type was Yamaha PA-3B and the specs were:

Input: AC 120v   60Hz   15VA
Output:   DC 12v   700 mA
Polarity: inner + outer -

The PA-3B is very common to Yamaha PSR keyboards and can be found easily at a music 
retailer, home electronics store or online.

Hello !
this kind of PSU is very common for a lot of electronic devices 
(printers , portable computers, CD players, battery chargers ...) . 
First take a look at home !
But be careful with 2 things : *12 V and DC* , some adapters are only 
transformers with (of course) an AC outlet !
