After 3 years I decided to roll out a new big update for my sound set (sound bank) for the Yamaha AN1x, together with a new sound demo. (Yes, some clips were already in the 2012 demo, but only some.) These demo clips were done in multi track recording mode. All synthesizers are 100% AN1x, the drums are coming from other sources. All chorus, phaser, distortion, delay and reverb FXs are 100% AN1x. The only external effects are compressor and EQ.
All songs I borrowed are written in the bottom right corner.
The sounds in this sound set are free to download, free to use and free to share (as long as you keep my name in it).

wow, didnt know my an1x was a fully fledged EDM machine....thanks for your work JB!!!
It’s not , Jay B is the edm machine , he shapes the synth to it ! I owned my Yamaha es8 for about 17 years before Jay b came along and blew my mind with his sound set.
And if you really are a trance lover
Go to channel Sami Rabia and download his jP8080 sound set for the Diva digital plugin by u-he . (He made carbon clones of every major hook of the late 90s and 2000s sounds and if you buy it he’ll even send you midi files to study the actual music should you wish. )
Any decent VA is going to be what is used for trance really. The JP8080 for example is still relevant even now in 2024 as it just has the trance sound that almost all trance songs use. It's interesting, I hear virtual analog more than any other synth type when it comes to trance.
I'm here nine years later and this is still probably the best patch demo I've ever heard
I don't believe my old ass an1x could ever sound like this... I'm going to have to go dig it up.
I bought my An1x for cheap 17 years ago second hand when they where hugely under appreciated. Keeping this one for the long run. These little gems are getting more valuable every time I check the second hand market.
Amazing work! Considering how counter-intuitive the AN1x is to program makes your work even more impressive. Great sounds and great demo tunes!
+Kebu The less you know about this synth the better for creative process. At least this is my experience with this awesome machine. You turn one knob and it's on fire. :) Use it:)
it's true in almost all cases what you've written, this was my experience with AN1X at the time ... It was my first synth (OK, I come from a musical family, so I was turning the knobs on Mini Moog, Fender Rhodes etc. since I was five years old, but still, sometimes ignorance is a bliss:)You can know too much:)
You're right. English is not my first language, so ... I agree.
My band got the AN1x as our second synth (the first was the CS1x). I knew nothing about analog synthesizers, and I didn't learn anything from the AN. But damn, I created some amazing sounds just by exploring, testing, failing, testing again - and suddenly finding small pieces of clues ("ah, that's what 'attack' means in relation to an envelope!").
A few years later, after having added the Roland JP8000 and the Korg MS2000, I got the whole picture. And a Creamware Pulsar soundcard with DSP:s and a modular softsynth was the way to become a good sound designer...
Today, almost two decades after unboxing the AN1x, I know enough to make one simple conclusion: You, Kebu, are amazing. And I envy the fact that you have both the Mono/Poly and the Polysix in your gearbox - because after all these years, those two are the ones I would really want to play around with! I do have them in my Reason rack so I get a close enough sound, but... Those knobs!
(By the way, that old AN1x I had is still working - it was used in a band practice room last time I heard about it. And it is still paired with the CS1x...)
HornetBojan great!!
I remember listening to this in 2017..now in 2022 a lush saw is sooooooooooo amazing...jay...good job
seriously underrated VA, the arpeggiator is also golden
I feel that I should comment on the soundset as well, not just commenting other comments. In short: Great sounds! To me as a former owner (and by now, experienced patch designer), I am actually impressed. Not by the synth, because I know what it can do, but by the way you have got the AN1x to work so good that each song example sounds perfectly complete. This video shows that the AN1x, despite its age, is a really good synth even after all these years. Thumbs up!
(for a silly example of what I did with the AN1x many years ago, search for "Lagoona - Why does my cat sound like this?". You'll probably recognize the patch that gave the song its title! :))
These sounds are truly amazing. For this synthesizer to be released nearly 20 years ago, it still holds up to today's standards of dance music. Exceptionally well done!
Absolutely, I think these old synths are better than today's. The sound synthesis was very well developed already in the 1980's, so late 1990's I think the development was more or less finished; it can't be so much better.
Luciano Drossi Yep. I couldn't agree more. I don't like the new workstations. The sounds are so tweaked and over effected that they lose something special.
I think they also use "ugly" sounds and an "ugly way" of doing the whole instrument setting. JayB is in my opinion better musician and far better sound designer than many of the more famous artists. I don't give any names about those artists I really wonder how they became famous, but in my world, JayB should be world famous at this point.
Trying to buy 1 now as we speak, hopefully he sells it to me :) AMAZING sounds.
Impressive programming, AN1x still sounds fresh even today! Hats off to you man. :)
Dude I'm considering getting an AN1X just because of this video. I didn't know it was capable of these sounds. GREAT WORK HERE! and musically too!
since i follow you i cant stop looking for those hardware synths you use as its TOP notch all the time
Thanks for taking the time to put this together, it's an awesome sound set and you gluing it all together into commercial-quality trance/dance bits goes miles beyond the usual "let's listen to some presets" demos out there.
That opening fade-in is so good.
wish there was a LOVE button for this!!!
Incredible sounds. I bought one last night, mint with original box. a pair of JBL speakers and a stand thrown in for £370. I''m so lucky. don't think these synths will be so cheap for much longer. if you can afford to, get one now. amazing.
Incredible to think you've coaxed all this out of the AN1x.
My AN1x arrives in a few days. Got these patches downloaded in readiness. Thanks JayB!
Blissful! I got a Reface CS a few years ago and loved the sound but felt cheated by the limitations, and longed after the AN1x. I finally got one but haven't done much with it. I admit the interface is a turn off, but after hearing this... now I'm feeling inspired. These patches are amazing!
Love your work and love the ANX1.
17 years on the hardwareroad and you still make awesome sounds for it.
Respect :-)
This is Way cheaper and better than other SYNTHS in the line up (Waldorf, nord lead 2x,behringer)
Right. I'm buying an AN1X! IMO the LD:classic from your Anthem track is one of the best trance lead sound ever created.
Just wow. You are a genius. Thank you for providing these sounds for free!
JayB you are such a generous person, Thank you for sharing these excellent patches. I do so love to load up your sounds on the AN1x. Still can't quite work out how to best use them in the Celtic music I make, but thanks anyway. Best Wishes from the UK..
Oh and again, thanks for these. I said thanks in your AN200 video but I must say it again here, so kind of you.
WANT. If I find an AN1x on the cheap, I'm definitely buying one. Very nice sound set indeed! I'm definitely downloading your sample packs to play with in the meantime.
Wow! Super job and nice, excellent work!
Thank you! God bless you!
True spacey and hard to find similarity with most popular nowadays!
That is the right way ever!
I have to say many of these songs give me chills down my spine, absolutely breathtaking stuff JayB!!!
I'm actually considering getting a second one, I love this synth so much
these little song previews are so goddamn sick
I think that almost every AN1x on the second hand market now comes with your sound set pre-installed. I have seen a few ads even mentioning it (JayB Soundset). I picked up an AN1x today from an ad that didn't mention it, but yes, the sounds are on it ;) Lovely machine and your sounds are simply amazing!
The one I just bought still had all the factory patches in it.
It doesn't now :)
Big thank you for sharing your sounds. They are pretty amazing. Got an AN1x now and with some serious Patches it's twice as good. Great video too, of course!
Just purchased one thanks to this soundset JayB! Some of of my favourite tunes and sounds! I sold my JP-8000 sadly, might look at getting JP-8080 later. I have a V-synth XT and some beautiful analog synths that the AN1X should play nicely with :)
I sold my JP8080 because of the AN1x. The supersaw alone wasn't convincing enough. Everything else sounded worse IMO. Especially the filter curves.
Cheers for advice/ tip JayB! Maybe Ill save my money for something else then, instead of JP8080. Keep up the awesome videos & sound sets.
2018 and still loving your sound set. great work. :)
2024 and still banger sound set 🎉
Fantastic sound. It's the music I like play.
Thanks for download link.
Good look!
at 5:08 that sounds exactly like a released track from a progressive house act, someone like Dinka for example, excellent work Sir!!
It was in fact inspired by Paul Keeley - A Sort Of Homecoming (Michael Cassette Remix). ;)
Outstanding sounds! Very good demonstration, too! Makes me want to get my old AN1x out again for some back to the 90s shit! I'll do that asap and send you some money!
I mostly use my AN1X for pads. I remember I wrote an ambient/electronica song in 1999 that was centred around a kind of unusual pad chord progression (unusual in that it wasn't your typical 4/4 EDM timing) and when I went to remix the song in Logic in 2019, I went through what must have been 50 thousand soft synth patches from every synth I had, and I could not find a pad to replace it. I then started tweaking sounds from scratch and could never quite get there. So I rebought the AN1X synth and got it for 900 AUD and now they are worth quite a bit, but I am keeping it, unless I find a cheap AN200 or maybe if I buy the PLG150-AN for my MU100R, as I only really need the 5 voices then track to audio then have another 5 if needed.
One thing I never ever seem to use in an actual song is my Virus Ti2 desktop. To me it's the most overrated synth of all time. As is Serum (softsynth).
PS That said, the AN1X is a pretty good master keyboard. I have that and a MoxF6 for my masters, the Mox doesn't have AT but the AN1X does, so maybe worth keeping as the keys are also really nice.
A very good, may be The best bank of sounds for An1X. Very, very thanks for it.
Thank you for sharing all of these amazing sounds with us. Looking forward to adding some of these to my songs.
Gotta Love MilkDrop ... That's probably the visuals in the background from Winamp.
BTW .. 5:32+ = Awesome track!
I really cant understand why arent you a famous producer all aroud the world!
Du bist nicht JayB sondern JayA++ !! Absolute Spitzenklasse!! Wenn das wirklich alles nur aus dem AN1x ist........dann will ich den auch haben!!! Mache auch Musik, habe diese Qualität leider noch nicht erreicht!!! In diesem Sinne....
Calling 112 for a GAS-alert right now
This video is the reason I got one. Would gladly buy a new soundset!
Absolutely excellent, man. Thanks for the sounds too. Very cool!
Can’t wait to see if these work with the new montage OCT 2023 can’t come quick enough.
Amazing work, thank you so much!!!
Kick ass. AN1x is awesome.
simply great sounds loved listening to this.
amazing work...i have a lot of your older sounds in my AN1x...i've never used them in a production but...very often i just play with 'em...a big proof that AN1x is still up to date ;) thanks
dude, your production skills are insane.
Very good set of sounds. Thank You !
Actually it is excellent. I wonder how you mix this? I do not belive that only compressor and EQ used. Some mastering tool also ?
The An1-x can do this ????. Impressive. I need one now.
Great sound design, greater demos !
Well done Jay !
This is nice! I'm going to.start screwing around with it now, thanks!
Amazing sounds. I'm learning AN1x at the moment. Good inspiration.
Great demo by the way. Thanks for sharing.
Masterclass sound!!!
Great! I still love my AN1x, thanx for sharing.
Nice sounds!
...and traxx
My god sir, if we had this demo back in 97, we could've convinced our school advisory committee to approve the purchase of one of these. I played Jump on it, that apparently wasn't nearly enough, but if they'd heard this...
its awesome the way you show these future sounds with awesome new beats! its miles forward from its season...!!!
deej exex I hear some hint of sarcasm... ;)
no, i speak literally especcially for these synths..! i believe there are so much sounds from the past who can make nice tracks in our season..! but if there is no sound from an1x in this track its ok!
deej exex All of these sounds are made from scratch. But they wouldn't habe been possible if the AN1x's engine wouldn't be this great from the beginning.
Sound really incredible !
6:32 is best I have heard this far.
Hi Jay, these sounds are brilliant. Unfortunately for me ( as I have just managed to acquire one of these synths ) have no idea of how to get these sounds from the zip file on my mac, onto the keyboard as I am technically gifted as a fart in a bucket! Please any help to explain how I do this and then how I access them would be greatly appreciated. Do i need extra memory on th an1x to accommodate these sounds or is there enough storage on top of the usual factory preset sounds. Never dealt with sysex files before so I really have no idea whatsoever. Apologies in advance.
Awesome work! Love it - I going to get my AN1x out and get back into it!
Hi Jaybs'
Your vids always makes me :)
Awesome work and sounds as well, very modern (dub) once again! you a genius!!!!
Regards
Mysterio.
You do know how to TRANCE bro!Good stuff.
Excellent job! Great patches!
Thanks a lot for this! Best!!
I have a boxed AN1X with no play time on the keys, owned from new, is this really what it is capable of doing because in the 90' s when I first purchased it this must have been the ultimate synth sleeper!
anyone know if they made a rackmount of the an1x, my cs1x is lonely
I can’t seem to get my an1x to receive the patches when I send them through bomes sendsx. My cpu received the bulk dump of patches from the an1x. The an1x does not receive anything!
Thanks again for awesome sounds.

/lo-fi electronic
Very nice sound set, great demo!
wow !!! muss mir gleich überlegen den AN1x aus der Auktion zu nehmen lool! awesome wie immer ! tnx Jay
Immer wieder lande ich hier und ärgere mich jedes Mal zu Tode, das ich meine Kiste damals verkauft habe. Das Potential des An1x hatte ich nie wirklich erfasst...son Mist!
A fantastic video. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome Work!
Great AN1x Sounds!
Thanks for sharing!
The track at 1:40 is ridiculous! Makes me sorry I sold my AN1X!
me encanta!
AN1X reborn from its ashes!
Stunning, amazing, both musically AND sonically.. wow.. JayB: When you can make the AN1x sing like this, is there any point in 'upgrading' to an Access Virus?
I was never interested in the Viruses. I mean they're really good synths and it would certainly be nice to have one. But I don't see the challenge in making good sounds with them. Because they're known to be great, especially for EDM - unlike the AN1x. ;)
JayB
Ah.. so are you after the 'sounds', or the 'challenge in making the sounds'? ie why make life harder that it has to be? I'm just stunned that your sounds (to my ears) sound VERY 'cutting edge' modern EDM, and I cant hear anythign 'missing' sonically compared to the Virus. (Any Virus users care to comment?)
Andybaby Yeah, I like the challenge in making sounds. Mainly with synth that are not known for making these sounds. This started with the Korg X5D by the way. A synth that's not supposed to create huge supersaw sounds.
Andybaby virus is kinda overrated in my opinion. I used to have numerous synths, I still have Polar TI and I also have Sylenth and I can tell you this is Virus if not better without the need of cables and straight audio quality. Yes it is nice to have dedicated knobs for everything, blinking LEDs and fancy aluminium body, but as far as sound goes, I don't see much difference there. Pretty much any virtual analog (or analog for that matter) synth is capable of sounding edgy and EDMishy - with the right programming.
JayB You do make really great sounds. (I have your PLG150-AN patch set) I also enjoy making, editing & tweaking sounds, especially on my Kurzweil PC3K (Kurzweil's V.A.S.T. is so amazing!) Alesis Fusion, & Korg Triton.
Nun habe ich seit einem halben Jahr einen AN1X ... konnte diesem Instrument aber bisher nicht diese genialen Sounds entlocken .... 🤔
Hammer Performance
beautiful
Excellent demo.
massive.
very good
I would love a V-synth version of this. Would that be possible?
Besides that the V is Roland rather than Yamaha it is a totally different synth engine.
I got one for collection...... legendary gear...
3:08 what the fuck, make this a full track.
This is some master-tier Trance.
top mam! thnxx
Kann mal bitte jemand meine wippenden Beine stoppen? Ich find das sooo geil!!!!!!! :) Und nochmal,JayB: Energy flows!
+Clarence Blinten Die Energie fließt? Zu viel Astro-TV geguckt? ;) SCNR
😂
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!
great job!
Hey there... i've just started using my An1x again alongside my Korg Vocla's and Ipad apps and it's all cool! - BUT - i just can't find a way to upload your sounds into my synth!
I use Live on my Macbook Pro... Ableton won't play .Mid files... and i've tried the Midi QUest demo i have no luck with that either..
Any ideas?
Great sounds by the way :)
+andy carter ok i found the solution for my own problem!
Want repro NEW AN-1X, and/or MontageAN, MODXAN!
hey. I love your synth playing.
very good sounds
how does a mininova stand against AN1x?
Hi JayB & all .... just goes to show how stunning this virtual analogue synth (still) is. Only VA I've ever wanted to get my hands on, as soooo convincing and flexible in sound even though it looks a bit plastiky retro(!).Get one if you can whilst prices are shifting upwards - never selling mine!!!
How about another updated vid JayB, hmmm?
the audio eng There's hasn't been much going on in the past year. It's not worth yet doing an update.
JayB .... 'Bout now then?? 😃👍
@@JayBmusic .... or now in fact??(!!!) 😁👍🎶🎹🍻
@@theaudioeng Check the website for the latest updates of sound sets. For the demo this is still enough. People are coming back. And tbh the trance scene hasn't changed too much in the past years. I rather make videos of the AN1x in its natural environment.
@@JayBmusic will check back then JayB. Got an update a while back, so might have already. Keep up the great synth demos 😉👍🎹🎵🍻
hi ya me again ive been trying to load your sound set into my jp8080 and i cand find anything in the manual or online that tells you how to load sounds into it via the memory card or some other way i cant see no load setting in the jp its self is there something im missing?
I hope you didn't try to load my AN1x sound set into your JP. Otherwise I can't help you lots. It's 12 years ago that I had the JP8080 and I never had a memory card for it. IIRC you just need to transfer the sysex data from the MIDI file or syx file by playing it back via MIDI to your JP and that's it.
@@JayBmusic morning no i went to your web page and downloaded the jp soundset and i then was trying to workout how to load the sounds in as theres no load option or receive option in any of the menus so i am stuck at that point it dont help having 2 midi ins on the machine ether as i cant work out why you need 2 midi in s and wheather or not i load them in patch or performance mode as i have tried both but it says nothing on the display about receving any thing from anywhere i set the sys ex and that to on aswell i got admit i keep seeing the jp in loads of big name production studios and i still cant say it can do anything better than the virus
