YAMAHA CS-80 - Ambient Pads & Soundscapes | Synthesizer Demo
synth4ever
"Yamaha CS-80 analog synthesizer demo, featuring some ambient pads and soundscapes. In this Yamaha CS-80 demo I play an improvisation featuring oscillator, filter, LFO, tremolo and chorus adjustments. Additional delay/reverb effects from Boss DD-7 pedal. Filmed at Vintage Synth Museum in Oakland, CA.
The Yamaha CS-80 is one of the most organic and expressive polyphonic analog synthesizers ever built. It is a dual channel 8-voice synth with polyphonic aftertouch, VCO/VCF/VCA, LFOs, built-in chorus and tremolo effects, ribbon controller, noise, ADSR envelopes and an incredible ring modulator. Used most famously by Vangelis on the Blade Runner and Chariots of Fire soundtracks, the Yamaha CS-80 provides the musician unparalleled creative control over their music and live performances.
This particular Yamaha CS-80 was recently acquired by the Vintage Synthesizer Museum in Oakland, CA and had some unique factory modifications installed that control filtering and other aspects of the synth (for more details, see this video: posted here ). During my visit to the VSM, I was able to try the Yamaha CS-80 and record some ambient pads and soundscapes which are showcased here. Hope you enjoy the demo."

"The Andromeda A6 is a true analog synthesizer using two analog oscillators per voice, sub-oscillators, hard and soft sync and more! It features 16-voice polyphony. With the Andromeda, you'll find a huge range of tonal possibilities: searing leads, warm pads, fat bass lines, extreme sound effects and more. And of course there are plenty of knobs (72) and buttons (144), even an assignable ribbon controller for addictive hands-on real-time control! The large high-resolution LCD display is excellent and shows you actual rather than relative values of parameters. Andromeda will integrate seamlessly into any studio with its total MIDI control and sync, individual voice outputs, stereo outputs and several audio inputs.
Andromeda is completely analog - no emulation! It features two analog filters per voice that sound great! They are a multimode 2-pole and a 4-pole lowpass. External audio can be routed through these filters too (three 1/4" jacks)! As for modulation, Andromeda has three LFOs, each with six waveforms and they can be synced to MIDI clock. And there are three 7-stage envelopes with very creative and flexible functions. Also onboard is an extensive mod matrix for enormous freedom in configuring Andromeda's sounds!"

"One of the Best Roland monosynth definitely,
Duophonic and so many modulation possibilities, 2 VCO 1dual and 1single,
Ring mod 2env a great filter and a modulation section really complete !
This synth sounds like no other one.
This is a must have to own for every collector.
This one has been fully serviced,
The VCO boards had some OPAmp changed
The LFO section as well, the KCV board has been inspected as the hold parameter tends to drift. This one does not !
The keybed has been disassembled, fully cleaned and inspected.
MIDI has been installed and is a great upgrade for this synthesizer."

"Word on the street is Technics threw away all assets & manuals when they shut down their synth department. They must've gotten tired of all that SL 1200 success so they went on a edgy streak.
This synth is simple but effective and has it's own character. Included is a cover that says Technics Music Synthesizer to guilt trip you into playing this little beast.
Also included, translucent overlay in Japanese if you are interested in learning Katakana. Which you should.
Japanese model, comes with a step down transformer if you need one."
