The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Dragged my equipment out into the woods for the annual non festival 
jam. There were a bunch of young guys on stage playing old Bob Dylan 
and Grateful Dead. Perfect music for the AN1X. Positively 4th Street 
got positively weird. The singer did look at me a little odd when I 
was doing some multi octave pitch bend bird noises.

To make things more fun I downloaded a whole bank of sounds I've 
never used before so calling up presets was interesting. Turning the 
assigned knobs was interesting as well. Probably as much fun as I've 
had in years playing keyboards. I plugged in my envelope phase 
shifter for Woolly Bully, got a clav sound, gave the tune a garage 
disco sound. 

The Space Animals debuted the Poodle has Landed to an appreciative 
(that means drunk) audience. I even did an impromptu sermon.

There's few things more fun than playing live synthesizer outside, in 
the dark, in the woods.
