Free Syntronik Instruments V-80 Yamaha CS-80, GX-1 and CS-01 clone, RRP $49 Free Syntronik Instruments V-80
Audio Plugin Deals are offering a free synth from Syntronik Instruments for 2 weeks which normally retails for $49. The V-80 is based on the Yamaha CS-80, GX-1 and CS-01 - the GX-1 being on of the world's rarest synths with a reported 20 units still in circulation. The unit sampled for Syntronik belonged to John Paul Jones, then Keith Emerson, then film composer Hans Zimmer before being sold to two other owners: The Syntronik V-80 is based on the classic Yamaha CS-80, GX-1 and CS-01 synths. Manufactured from 1976--1980, the CS-80 was Yamaha's flagship take on the analog polysynth. The CS-80's voice architecture is an exercise in layering, filtering and modulation. Each selectable-shape oscillator has its own high pass and low pass filter and envelope controls. The sound is fat and organic, and even the slightest introduction of the resonant high pass filter can add a phasey quality to the instrument that gives it even more depth. Some examples of its unique sound can be heard in "Blade Runner" and "Mutiny on the Bounty" by Vangelis as well as "Dune" by Toto.
