I picked up mine for �200 in Turnkey last October!From the moment I switched it on, I fell in love with it! What you get is half an AN1X plus a drum machine complete with low pass filters! In other words you get a sound similar to a JP8000 but much more versatile. My only critism is that you need to use an editor or be proficient at sys-ex to really dig deep into the AN200`s power. For me it excels at fat,modulated,trancey riffs perfect for trance, psy-trance and techno!

I bought the AN-200 (on e-bay) to fill out my home studio setup, which includes a Korg ES-1 sampler/sequencer. I considered the Korg EA-1 but thought the basic synth engine and filters were a bit too wimpy for my taste. By comparison, I can easily make my AN-200 sound just like my long departed, but beloved, Minimoog - Phat & sweet! Many reviewers have complained about the cheezy, pre-set, drum sounds in the sequencer, but I let the ES-1 handle those chores for me. I have been using a vintage Casio CZ-1000 FM synth midi'ed to the AN-200 and have been just blown away by the array of cool sounds.

Oh yeah, the drums do suck, but sample them into an Akai or Emu and watch em BOOM!!!!

WOW!!! 200 bucks at guitar center....I use it as a sound module, and/or for sampling sounds into the MPC3000 & MPC60 for fatening, and/or just playing it, directly recording to PT...havent even dug into the software on my MAC yet...but it sounds so fuckin good....inspires my creativity....NICE BASS....and all of this for 200 bucks. 5 out of 5. A tweakers dream.
IT IS NOT A TOY....take advantage of Yamaha's poor marketing and buy one now. I will be picking up the DX200 next week.
