SynthBits: The Mighty CS-80

Written by Blake Angelos on . Posted in 1970s.

From David Spiers of G-Force Software and Kent Spong comes this great video about the CS-80. This nearly one hour long video covers the history of the CS-80 and provides a thorough front panel overview along with lots of great audio examples. We would like to know what manner of time machine they used allowing them to travel back to 1977 to retrieve a CS-80 in perfect condition! Check out this great video below:

We talked about where he got his start, what it’s like to play with Kendrick Lamar and Patti LaBelle and what he loves about MONTAGE and the YC61 Stage Keyboard. Stan is a wonderful person and it’s always great to hang with him. Check it out below!
