YAMAHA AN200 Groove Box demo - half an AN1X, twice an EX5

Published on Dec 15, 2018 Floyd Steinberg

"I recently found out this machine exists, so I found one on eBay and bought it. The Yamaha AN200 is a groove box from 2001, equipped with a PLG-150 AN extension card, which uses the same sound engine as the AN1X or the EX5, but with 5 voice polyphony. I did not spend much time with this yet, just dialed in some sounds and made this short demo. As expected, you can create some powerful sounds with this."

Side note: I own a DX200 myself. The AN200 is a VA/analog modeling and the DX200 is 6-OP FM - essentially a full DX7 with VA filter in a groovebox. When the AN200 comes in above it has a similar character to the DX200. The synth engines are different but running through the filter and effects colors them in a similar way.

Yamaha AN1X Sounds - Part 1

Published on Oct 14, 2017 ProckGnosis

"Skip to 03:20 to jump the preamble synth and beer babble. Just a rather LENGTHY listen to a very decent sounding and very capable virtual analog (VA) synth from Yamaha released in 1997. And yes, these are almost all presets I demo, and the opening music was recorded with just the AN1X and some drums.

You have to ask, if Yamaha made a VA this good 20 years ago, what's up with not being able to at least match its capability in all the stuff they have put out since? There was obviously a way, but maybe not the will.

Not counting the AN200 (which was sort of AN1X with half the voices), the CS ReFace is the only virtual analog synth Yamaha has put out in all that time since (unless I'm forgetting some other synth).

--AN1X Specs--
Polyphony - 10 notes
Oscillators - 2 osc: saw, variable width pulse, FM
Effects - Reverb, delay, 3-band EQ, chorus, flanger, phaser, enhancer, compressor, distortion, overdrive, amp simulator.
Filter - Resonant 12/18/24dB/oct low/band/hi pass filter + 1 more hi pass
Arpeg/Seq - Arpeg: 1 mon/poly, up, down, up/down, random; MIDI-capable. Seq: 16 steps, 1 track
Keyboard - 61 keys (with velocity and aftertouch)
Memory - 128 patches
Control - MIDI (2 parts)
Date Produced - 1997"

Zaquencer/Beatstep Pro Jam (June 6 2016)

Published on Jun 6, 2016 stereofect

"This time I use Zaquencer to not only sequence my synths but also sync up the Beatstep Pro to Zaquencer. Zaquencer is on X5Dr, Mopho and anode duty while the Beastep Pro handles drums and the AN200. I, of course, play lead on the Bass Station II. An Oxygen8 is used to transpose both Zaquencer and the Beatstep Pro.

Gear used:

Mopho Desktop
Korg X5DR
Meeblip anode
Yamaha AN200
Novation Bass Station II
Boss DR-550 MKII
BCR2000 running Zaquencer
Arturia Beatstep Pro

Hope you like it!

Cheers!!"

Zaquencer Jam #2 (April 1 2016)

Published on Apr 1, 2016 stereofect

"More fun with Zaquencer. What a great bit of kit Zaquencer is. Featuring the Waldorf Blofeld, Yamaha AN200, Korg ES-1, Novation Bass Station II, Mopho Desktop And Korg X5DR. Other than the time it takes to set up Zaquencer (not long really) and a few practice runs this is a single take no post processing type jam. Audio was recorded on a Zoom H1. Video recorded with a iPhone6. Smashed together in Sony Movie Studio.
Cheers!!"

Yamaha AN200 and PLG150-AN Analog Synth for Motif ES, Motif Classic, CS6X, CS6R, S80 and S30

"Underneath the hood of the AN200 with the PLG150-AN (The PLG150-AN can be installed inside the Motif ES, Motif Classic, CS6X, CS6R, S80 and S30 to add an Analog Synth to your Keyboard!) is an analog physical modeling synthesizer that's capable of producing the incredibly fat resonant sounds of those enormous analog synthesizers of the 70's and early 80's.

It provides all the essential sound building components, including 2 VCO's, 6 filter types, frequency modulation, pitch sync, VCO sync, filter EG, LFO and more! Plus it gives you a full 5 notes of polyphony (unlike the 2 notes found in most other physical modeling synthesizers), so you can play ultra thick chords by connecting it to a MIDI keyboard. Like the DX200, it's also equipped with over one hundred rhythm sounds and a 16-step analog-style sequencer for creating your own original dance tracks.

JayB's Sound Set for Yamaha PLG150-AN (AN200)

Published on Dec 1, 2013 JayB·67 videos

"FREE DOWNLOAD:
http://www.jaybmusic.net/sounds.html

My first video for the PLG150-AN board, the small brother (or sister?) of the legendary AN1x. With Multisaw. The sounds I made for this board are not very complex, but very useful. Mostly plucks and basses it is. And a few lead sounds. The sound set also contains a few sounds from my AN1x set.
My PLG150-AN is hosted by the Yamaha S80, which delivers all effects you're hearing. Not external sound processing was done.

All songs are written as captions in the video. Non-captioned songs are pure improvisation to sound similar to some song.

"Ascentia Fantastica" 2013

Yamaha RS7000, AN200, MO6, PSR4600 + Korg MS2000 + Akai Miniak - demo "Ascentia Fantastica" 2013

"Yamaha RS7000, AN200, MO6, PSR4600 + Korg MS2000 + Akai Miniak - demo "Ascentia Fantastica"

Jan 20, 2013 Note:
This video was originally uploaded in 2010. I've since remastered it for better audio quality and video performance.

Yamaha PSR4600: Airplane Drone
Yamaha RS7000: Sequencing -Drums, Bass, Synths
Korg MS2000: Pads
Yamaha AN200: Space FX
Yamaha MO6: Lead
Akai Miniak: Sound FX and Pads

The Yamaha PSR4600 is a rare "Arranger" keyboard from 1990-1991. Features a 1st generation AWM synthesis and a 2 OP FM synth. All voices can be edited to some degree. Edited voices are retained after power off.
Some sounds feature a bit of vector sequencing, much like a Yamaha TG-33.
The editing consists of just a few parameters for envelope, LFO speed & depth, FM feedback and velocity.
Instead of pitch and modulation wheels, it has roll bars. The bars are firm and well made.
Velocity sensitive keys can be enabled/disabled.
A simple 5 track sequencer.
MIDI in/out/thru
Digital reverb (hall, room & echo)
also has a weird solo mode with arpeggio-like features.

I affectionately call it 'The Albatross'."

DOWNLOAD: http://www.jaybmusic.net/sounds.html

"There needed to be an update. So this is a quick run through my sound set for the Yamaha AN1x. It's only partly compatible to the AN200 / PLG150-AN. It's designed to suit current trance and progressive sound as well as other electronic and non-electronic genres.

All sounds and songs are displayed in the video. If there's no song you can do what you want with the melody, just credit me please. :) I won't provide MIDIs. Do not ask."
