Hello Jaish,

I haven't experienced the problem you describe with my AN1x 
however, it's been mentioned on the list before. I'd advise you to 
search the list archives http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AN1x-list I 
don't recall a specific, one cure fits all, solution to the problem. I 
would assume a hardware repair needs to be affected by a 
Yamaha Service Center.

I have no data or proof to back up my opinion but I believe the 
problem you describe might be the advanced result of the 
audible 'popping and crackling' bug which affected any number 
of AN1x synthesizers when the unit was relatively new back in '97 
& '98. My unit was affected and Yamaha readily acknowledged it 
as a hardware issue. I had the repair performed while under 
warranty and have not had any issue since. Of course I may very 
well be wrong but that's my take on the problem ;-) 

Hope this helps.

regards,

Jon
