Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. People of the the 90s weren’t exactly spoiled for choice when it came to hands-on virtual analog polys: the iconic supersaw, the nordic ice bath, the range that still sounds better than 90% of today’s synths and the one even Uli Behringer wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole.
Today, however, we are FINALLY going to talk about the 1997 Yamaha AN1x and it is beyond me why it took me so long.
