Description
The CS01 is a very old but classic analog monosynth from Yamaha. Although originally designed for use by novice musicians or first time synth-buyers, the CS01 has been recognized by today's electronic musicians as one fat little bass machine with simple controls. In a nutshell, the CS01 is simple to use and edit but still has some great features for any situation. It's tiny and portable, it has baby-sized keys and it can run on batteries, and there is a built-in amplifier and speaker which is quite fun. As for sounds and synthesizing, the CS01 is the perfect monosynth for bubbly and growling bass! It features a very nice 12dB resonant voltage-controlled filter. In addition to the oscillators' sine and square type waveforms there is PWM and noise. There are also LFO controls, glissando (like portamento), a typical ADSR envelope generator, pitch & mod wheels and even a breath controller input. Specifications: Polyphony - Monophonic Oscillators - 1 VCO - triangle / saw / square / pulse / PWM LFO - Sine waveform Filter - 12dB Cutoff / Hi or Lo resonance with ADSR (24dB on mkII) VCA - 1 ADSR envelope gen Keyboard - 32 mini keys Memory - None Control - Breath Controller; CV/Gate via kit from Kenton Date Produced - 1982, (1984 mkII) The speaker is removed to place the midi. Comes with power supply.
With original manual. Buyers outside of Europe will take care of the customs of their country.
