AudioPilz - Synths - Bad/Better Gear


Bad Gear - Yamaha CS1x - Not Exactly My Thing video by AudioPilz

Just discovered this series. Above is the latest video featuring the Yamaha CS1x. Below is a playlist of previous videos in the series. I'm guessing the CS1x will be added. P.S. I actually own a CS1x and SU10 so it's kind of fun seeing them paired in this video. The CS1x is all ROMpler but it does have some nice icy strings. It has a bright digital character about it - like it's permanently run through a glassy sounding reverb.

  1. CS1X, CS2X, and CS6X were the immediate descendants of SY85, the first Yamaha AWM synthesizer after they dropped FM as a paradigm following the SY99. The CS6x could be considered the protoMotif, which included expandability and sampling. The CS6X could have a PLG150-FM card installed to make it into pretty much an SY77. I have a CS6R with two PLG150-AM cards, making it a Motif and an AN1X together in a 2U rack unit.
    As for AudioPilz, letting an opinionated narcissist have a U2b channel at least keeps him away from the schoolyards.

  2. Forgot to mention that SY85 also has expandability (limited) and sampling (limited.)
