Yamaha CS-80 Sound Sampler


YouTube Uploaded by gavincurtis on Sep 26, 2011

"My CS-80 restoration project about 1/3 completed and the instrument's health bar is finally in the green. Most of the systems are working. Enough to present to you what a properly functioning CS-80 should sound like. Definitely resides in the category "most complex production electronic musical instrument". Over 200 lbs of printed circuit board and wiring. Less than 800 CS-80s were made due to high cost and complexity. Serial numbers started at 1000 and ended before 1800. My CS-80 is serial number 1306, the 306th unit off the assembly line.

Signal path is the CS-80 ---- Lexicon 224XL digital reverberator ---- direct line audio feed into Sony HDR-XR520V HD camera."
