Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Yamaha AN200 Desktop
Control Synthesizer!
The AN200 is a combination tone generator and sequencer that puts an enormous amount of
sonic power and real-time performance control in an exceptionally compact and easy-to-use “desktop”
package. As one of the Loopfactory group of instruments, it’s an amazingly high-quality and versatile
tool for loop-based music production. Use it on your gigs, as part of your DJ setup — or as your
secret weapon in your studio arsenal.
With eighteen knobs and umpteen switches, many of them “dedicated” — meaning that a con-
trol does specifically and ONLY what its name indicates — the AN200 is a synthesizer control freak’s
dream.
Powering the incredibly rich and huge analog-like Voices of the AN200 is the Analog Physical
Modeling synthesis system. It not only features the same familiar oscillator, filter and other sound-
shaping controls found on traditional analog synthesizers — it gives you the full spectrum of warm, fat,
and punchy sounds that made those legendary instruments famous.
Play the exceptionally high-quality analog-style Voices of the AN200 with full 5-note polyphony
— from the built-in keyboard or from a MIDI device. Use the built-in 16-step sequencer to create your
own synth and rhythm sequences. And power up the full-featured AN200 Editor on your computer —
to tap into ALL the amazing sonic power the AN200 has to offer.
There’s a lot of important, helpful information in these pages. So read through this manual
