"Selling a YAMAHA CS-50 vintage analog synthesiser with unique MIDI interface and special added tuning card all in full working condition !
The YAMAHA CS-50 is 4 voices of the legendary YAMAHA CS-80, said to be the ultimate vintage analog polysynth by many specialists.
This one comes with its 4 original metal legs and lid (lid has additional metal reinforcements as shown on 1st picture). The power supply has been fully recapped before the sale and the sound cards recalibrated. In addition to these, it is equipped with a tuning card* and a MIDI kit that has :
- all of the main features of the Kenton kit
- control of brilliance (cutoff) of HPF via CC or velocity or aftertouch (impossible with the Kenton kit. The Kenton kit only allows control of LPF !)
- control of LFO depth to VCO and VCF via CC or aftertouch.
- etc...
Full MIDI kit instructions are included
Kenton kit + installation sell for £612, here you have an even more developped MIDI kit which should then could be valued at at least £650. Meaning the CS-50 alone has a value of £1450 ! A true bargain...
*The tuning card installed allows you to tune the instrument yourself instead of going to or calling a technician to do it (like a guitarist tunes his instrument before playing...)."
