But is the sound of the CS-80V really close to the original? It is up to you to decide, but after painstaking efforts and tests, we would tend to say YES.
The CS-80V is based on TAE , the proprietary technology developed by Arturia’s sound engineers, and already successfully used in the Moog Modular V. TAE stands for True
Analog Emulation and brings superior quality of sound when reproducing analog circuits. In the case of the CS-80V, we honestly doubt you could really hear any difference.
The CS-80V offers compatibility with all major interface standards and formats which guarantees a perfect integration into any studio environment. And with the ability to work at 32 bits/96kHz, you can now begin to make music on your computer the way you would with a real hardware synthesizer.
Not convinced yet? Just listen to one of the presets made by our selection of the best sound designers on this planet.
Peter Forrest (in the A-Z of Analogue Synthesizers, Susurreal, First published 31/10/96) says: “When it comes to trying to decide which of the top-flight synth is the best ever, it’s not easy. (…) But if you are looking at richness of sound coupled with performance power, and sheer overkill, maybe nothing can touch it”.
In 1976, Yamaha introduced the CS-80, a synthesizer based on the same circuits as the GX1. The price tag ($6900) put it out of the reach of most musicians, and the weight (83kgs with stand) made it sometimes hard to use on stage. But the qualities of this synthesizer, considered Japans first great synthesizer, made it immediately famous in the Music Industry.
The CS-80 was popularized in the late 70’s and early 80’s by a number of pop groups, including Electric Light Orchestra, Toto, Paul McCartney and Wings. Other artists and bands like
Vangelis, Bon Jovi, Jean-Michel Jarre, Geoffrey Down, Stevie Wonder and some others turned the CS-80 into a real myth.
