GX-80 From @CherryAudiovst - In depth guide of this CS-80 + GX-1 #synthesizer

GX-80 From ‪@CherryAudiovst‬In depth guide of this CS-80 + GX-1 soft synth The new GX-80 from Cherry Audio is a great integration of the rare Yamaha GX-1 with a epic Yamaha CS-80 in a great rich creamy sounding a synth. It brings some GX-1 features to the CS-80. GX-1 was strictly a preset instrument. Though it had no onboard synthesizer parameter controls, its analog synthesizer voicing could only be programmed using an external hardware programmer box through a very elaborate procedure. The more programmable CS-80 synthesizer was released 4 year later. More compact and affordable, owing to a single keyboard and two ranks, the CS-80 retained the same basic voicing architecture and innovative real-time performance control capabilities as the GX-1. Though their outward appearances were radically different, the GX-1 and the CS-80 instruments were very similar under the hood. Both featured a voicing architecture based on "ranks," wherein each rank was a complete synthesizer voice consisting of an oscillator, highpass and lowpass filters, a noise generator, a sine wave oscillator, envelope generators for the filter and VCA, respectively, and a VCA. The CS-80 included two of these voice ranks, each capable of playing up to eight independent polyphonic notes -- a total of 16 synth voices under the hood. The GX-1 featured four of these eight-note poly voice ranks, assignable across two keyboards, plus a single solo synth voice rank for its three-octave mini keyboard and another synth voice rank for the pedalboard. Performance Controls These controls are optimized for real-time use, and they're a large part of what made the CS-80 such a fantastically expressive instrument for live performance. The majority of these controls are what we refer to as "paddle" controls - i.e. sliders that rotate in an arc. These controls were appropriated from Yamaha's organ line, and like an organ, they operate backwards from a typical slider control - full up position is off, and their amount increases as they're pulled back toward the player. ► 1 on 1 consultation (online): If you're looking for help and need a 1 on 1 consultation, look at my Facebook page to schedule one : https://www.facebook.com/nutrixmtl/se... ►Nu-Trix Music: ♫Nu-Trix on iTunes: https://apple.co/3NflMN2 ►Affiliated link: enjoy free shipping at Perfect Circuit! https://link.perfectcircuit.com/t/v1/... ►PATREON :   / nutrix   ❤️ Thanks to all my PATREON supporters❤️ **Thanks MobileMusicPro for being a patron : check out his YT channel :    / @mobilemusicpro   **Thanks Bleass apps for being a patron : check out their wonderful apps: https://www.bleass.com/ ★FREE GIFTS★ https://www.nu-trix.com/free-circuit-... -49 Percussive samples from my BassStation II, Volca Beats and iPad apps -A Nu-Trix Novation Circuit PACK -64 percussive native Circuit Patches -64 samples ►Follow me online:   / nutrixmtl     / nutrixsynthguy     / nutrixmtl   ► Chapter: 00:00 GX-1 + CS-80 02:29 GX-80 guided tour 25:22 GX-80 presets demo 32:05 My 2 cents on the GX-80
