The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Thanks for the reply Rob.

A few others have suggested trying a different power supply, and as I 
have a CS1x as well, I just tried swapping the power supply over, and 
the AN1x sprung into life. I would have never guessed that it was the 
power supply. If that hadn't worked, the next stop would have been the 
distributor though. Thanks again,

Tony Sheeran.
