The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

I use mine in my home studio and for live gigs.  When I play out I use a 
Roland xp-30, Korg N1R, and the AN1x.  We do some 70s, 80s and current stuff. 
The roland and Korg give me all the meat and potatoes sounds but my AN1x is 
my secret weapon.  Everytime I do Tom sawyer, 1984, Dont forget about me, or 
Jump, it's the AN1x.  I also use it for a lot of other sounds but always 
synth types, not acoustic emulations.  I love it and wouldnt ever dream of 
getting rid of it.  In the Studio, I load it with wierd pads and off-world 
strangness sounds and noises.  It does some really wacked out stuff that I 
wouldnt know how to program but thats why there is an archive of sounds on 
this list. You just have to pick through it to come up with your own favorite 
custom bank.  I keep meaning to post some of my sounds on the list but the 
stupid Yahoo username and ID always mess me up and I cant get through to the 
list.  I wish someone would come up with the sound from Van Halen's " Why 
Cant This be Love ".  I've come pretty close but I'm not totally happy with 
the results.  Anyway, this is a great list, lots of nice supportive people.  
God Bless,  Eric W
