The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Wo, I´ll have to ask deepsonic for that files, too. 
Your right, Yamaha is FM for most users regardless of cs 80 and others. 
Since you mentioned Oberheim: my first visit at a professional music store- a friend of mine was looking for a guitar combo- I grabbed a chord at an Oberheim OB-8. Not knowing that it was connected to a pair of speakers the sound almost threw me on my behind. Compared to this the "Oberheim" OB12 is like a wet fart.
For the knobs: I think Yamaha did the possible to achieve easiest use with least possible number of knobs. And I think they did a good job. I got a SY 77, I had a DX7II before, well a Juno60 was my first synth. I'm the proud owner of two FB01- two because of their size. It takes some time to prepare, but there's an easy workaround for missing knobs.
Jeff, it's a pleasure to deal with intelligent people.
Thanks
Tom

 Maybe it's because of the lack of knobs ! First "analog" means "lot of 
 knobs to tweak" and  the AN1X is less "user friendly" than other 
 comparable gear . Another reason : Yamaha is , for most musicians , 
 associated with FM synths like the DX 7 ...11 series . I thougt of 
 buying an Oberheim OB12 , but i've been told by many that it was not 
 very reliable and a mint second hand  AN1X was 4 times cheaper ! The 
 swiss guy at deepsonic send me a mail with his "AN1X" files : i let the 
 Oberheim at the store .
 For the administrator - webmaster etc... : i can make a french 
 translation of the website , there are keyboardists and AN1X owners even 
 in France . If it's useful please feel free to contact me .
