video upload by Andy Whitmore
See the follow-up video here.
"In this video, we dive into the ultimate comparison between the legendary Yamaha CS80, the iconic synth behind Blade Runner and countless classics, and the brand-new Xils-Lab The Eighty VST – a cutting-edge emulation of the original. I put these two head-to-head, exploring:
• Raw waveforms and the sound engine
• Ring modulation and pitch bend capabilities
• Dry sounds and FX comparisons
• Iconic licks from Vangelis and Michael Jackson
Whether you're a synth enthusiast or looking for your next VST, this video has you covered. Let’s see if the future of VSTs can truly match the past of analog synths!"
