The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Thanks for all the responses on the various muso lists I posted this query.

I've received an email off-list from someone who suggested that I buy
a draughtman's chair.

Item number 377744 at www.staples.co.uk provides a good example and
it's just the sort of thing I was looking for.

So I think I'll be paying a visit to Staples or somewhere like that tomorrow.

Regards,

Steve
