as far as i know funker vogt use the cs1x.and horrible voice distortion,by
the way.

brian of VAC doesn´t like the an1x very much.he rated it on his site (there
were some synth descriptions...but now he has deleted them) at 4 from 10.
he prefers to the virus and the jp8080. he´s a nice guy,by the way. some of
my favourite musicians.

don´t forget to mention one of germany´s new electronic projects "split
effect" using the cs2x heavily.
and "neurotic fish" (electro-ebm-synthie from germany) is using the an1x.

just some info from my music files..

You may be right!...As I'm used to the CS2x color I didn't realize that the
CS1x has the same body color...
...I think it sound cool anyway..:-)

IMHO I think the AN1x souds more "punchy" than the virus...but I won't mind
to have one...ooopppss!....will the virus get out of production too???...:-)

I don't know...I never found their setup list.
But I'm sure that Aghast View don't use any. But they've made some cool
tunes using only an EPS 16...:-)
