Classic powerhouse of a poly-synth! The Yamaha CS60 shares the same architecture of the CS80 (including memory) which is why it's a fantastic synth to dial-in that big boy CS80 sound without the heavy price tag. Sorry, no legs are included.
Recently overhauled by our in house technician.
Service notes:
-Replaced all electrolytic capacitors within internal power supply -Replaced other electrolytic capacitors associated with power supply rail -Replaced all "lilac" capacitors -Cleaned all controls, exterior panel, knobs and inside of chassis -Cleaned keybed and entire assembly -Replaced shorted diode on preset card -Replaced bulb used in touch response sensor -Calibrated power supply, key CV generators and key CV sample and hold -Tuned all voices
More info on the CS60:
Featuring two oscillators, two envelopes, and two low-frequency oscillators. It also has a built-in chorus effect and a built-in arpeggiator. The CS-60 is capable of producing a wide range of sounds, from warm and mellow to bright and aggressive.
The CS60 is a 8 note polyphonic synthesizer w/ velocity, aftertouch and a ribbon controller which offers the player a really organic feel into the performance of the instrument. Other key real-time control facilities, such as the LFO/ring-modulator section really make the CS60 a great players instrument – it’s all about the performance with the big CS polys.
The resonant qualities of the Yamaha CS series filter are unmatched by any other poly-synth so they sound unique.
"This is a blue limited edition, of which only 50 were manufactured. SFX60 MKII is a 6-track synthesizer with 6-track effects system, 6 MIDI tracks step sequencer, and 18 LFOs.
Five sound engine systems are built in (SUPERWAVE, SID, DIGIPRO, FM+, and VO).
With the MKII, the main unit is slimmer and the number of pattern steps has been enhanced from 32 to 64."
"Here's your chance to own this rare historic synth. All knobs, keys, pots and wood-housing is original. Everything has been cleaned and everything is functioning. This thing produces beautifully warm bass and lead sounds. And the ring modulator will take you into some wild sci-fi territories too. Only major blemish is a chipped key (see last photo) key still is fully functional.
The Korg 770 is a monophonic analog synthesizer introduced by Korg in 1976. Based on the same circuitry as the two-VCO version of the Mini-Korg, the 770 offered a more conventional re-packaging, and some control improvements to make the synth more versatile.
VCO 1 offered five choices of waveform, with triangle, sawtooth, square, pulse, and a pulse-width-modulated (rate controlled by an LFO) pulse wave on tap, or an external input could be selected. The VCO included an octave select switch with six settings, including a 64' deep bass setting. VCO 2 produced only a sawtooth wave, or it could be ring modulated against VCO 2, or any of three varieties of noise could be selected. The tuning could be offset from VCO 1. A blend control allowed the user to select the mix of the two signal sources. Other controls at the right side of the panel allowed the user to apply an "auto bend", or vibrato controlled by a dedicated LFO separate from the main LFO. (There were no pitch or mod wheels.)
'Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. There is no lack of compact, costly and multitalented touchscreen devices in our lives and usually we want to get away from them - especially when making music.
Today we are going to talk about 1010music blackbox. This 2019 “thing” not only threw down the gauntlet to its competitors in the crowded field of sampler / sequencer combos with an acute fit of feature-based megalomania, it also wants to take on the big Berlin Excel of DAWs."

As technology has improved, it has become possible for manufacturers to produce
increasingly complex synthesizers. This has led to the creation of synths that trade off easeof-use for maximum sound design potential, spreading hundreds upon hundreds of options
and parameters throughout dizzying interfaces, full of tabs and menus. They provide oscillators
and filters with such immense algorithmic precision that any soul or character is stripped away
before it has a chance to flourish in the sound. Integrate is not like that.
Integrate has been designed with the goal of creating an old-school virtual analog that has
just as much personality as any of the classics, paired with a fantastic user interface that makes
exploring the sonic possibilities an effortless pleasure. It cannot do everything, but this is
intentional; limitations breed creativity. No longer will you spend hours scrolling through lists
of wavetables, paralyzed by the impossible task of deciding which is the best to use – a
question that has no right answer. Instead, Integrate has a simple two-page layout where
every parameter has been selected for its unique axis of inspiration. Every dial, slider and
button is waiting to delight you as you delve into a world of aural possibilities.
Many thanks to fdigl for providing me a NFR license for this plugin! Next video will feature some custom patches made by me.

Four mighty oscillators. The four main oscillators come equipped with a selection of 74 waveforms and a flexible noise generator. The traditional waveforms (sine, sawtooth, square and triangle) all have a specially chosen parameter that can be modulated, allowing you to creating evolving sounds. The noise generator has tweakable color, and it also supports key tracking for an effect reminiscent of early game consoles. Also featuring FM, RM and hard sync, there's a world of possibilities waiting to be unlocked in these oscillators. There's also a sub oscillator sporting three waveforms, ready to quickly beef up your patch.
Have it your way. Integrate lets you configure the character of the oscillators, giving you the power to shape the sound of your patches from the very start of the signal path.
Pick between the “Clean” rendering mode for a modern touch, or the “Digital” mode to add a gritty punch to your sound.
Make anything super. Oscillators A and B both sport a unison section, letting you turn a simple waveform into a 7 voice beast. Configure the detune and mix, or enable “Stereo” to spread the voices across the channels. You'll soon discover how much of a monster Integrate is at fat, anthemic sounds, perfect for mesmerizing listeners of any genre.
The latest technology. Integrate is available in the new CLAP plugin format, boasting advanced features like non-destructive polyphonic parameter modulation and note stacking. We're proud to join its community of developers who are pioneering the latest in audio technology.
Information, only when you need it. To keep the interface compact and free from distractions, Integrate keeps extra information about parameters neatly tucked away in popups that only show when you're interacting with the relevant controls.
Waveforms, envelopes, frequency spectrums all pop up as soon as you need them, and then instantly hide away once you're done with them.
Explore new territory. Integrate isn't an emulation of an existing synth. Instead, it's a brand new design, waiting for you to explore what it's capable of. Dive into a world of characterful oscillators, screaming filters, chaotic LFOs, and dreamy reverbs. There's bound to be something that'll captivate your imagination.
