I use all my keyboards primarily for progressive rock sounds. Do some new age type stuff too and jazz piano and real Hammond. I have found the moog type sounds to be incredible. Up to this time, the only thing I would use if not a real Mini-Moog was a Kawai K-3 that I spent hours (days actually) programming and tweaking. The AN1X is so good at this, I wonder if I still need the K3. Not planning on selling it though....so don't ask;-)! I would like to add that some nice mellotron string sounds can be made with the CS2X (even though this is OT concerning this particular list...LOL!)
