"A very rare opportunity to own a fully working Yamaha CS60. More portable than the CS80 and more expressive than the CS50, the CS60 is the ideal way to get those amazing Blade Runner/Chariots of Fire sounds which Vangelis created on the CS80. Other CS80 fans include Eddie Jobson who created fantastic layered textures and leads for "UK" and other bands, and Klaus Schulze.
The CS60 is eight-note polyphonic, fully analogue with variable resonance filters and has a velocity and aftertouch sensitive keyboard. Aftertouch can bring in vibrato, tremolo and filter opening just like on the CS80. Also as on the CS80, the CS60 has a fantastic voltage controlled ring modulator which creates huge clanging bell-like and metallic sounds - these are all over the 'Blade Runner' soundtrack and the music of Klaus Schulze - and a pitch strip which bends notes down to the sub-audio region..."
