  • More than a typical VA-synth: The Yamaha AN1x offers a great synth engine including FM. In 1998 I created the bank "Analog Plus" (distributed by Yamaha and still available) which shows how different the AN1x can really sound ... added some reverb/delay from the freeware plugin Valhalla Supermassive.

    I've always wanted this synthesizer. I got one a few weeks ago very cheaply and in very good condition. I'll never give it back! Best VA ever!!!

      In my opinion, the ANx is interesting but today like Korg Z1 have some typical aural signature, maybe the DA converters,
      I like the modern sound of the Reface CS.

    So as of Oct 9 you will be able to purchase a new AN-X VA modeling based synth.

    Yamaha has an amazing back catalogue of wonders like the AN1X/200, DX200, QY70/100, RS7000 etc.. and all digital and yet the newer stuff is simply more limited and less fun (reface CS, Seqtrak) - lots of potential wasted. Would these patches work on my AN200? Cheers

    Hi Matt. Very good video. I would like to know what effect or parameter is assigned to the modulation wheel in the first sound that you show. Could it be a LFO?
