(copying the cs80 group, too)
Thanks so much - great video! I've done the Doctor Who ring-mod intro
many times on CS-80s. What's really coincidental is that back in 1981 I
had my first CS60 (couldn't afford a CS80 back then - even the CS60 was
used) and I used it all the time with a Roland SVC-350 vocoder (great
box!), which is what he's got sitting on top of the CS80! Even
stranger, is that in a house I was sharing in college, my CS60 and
vocoder were set up next to one of my house-mate's Arp Odysseys - also
just like the video. And I was a huge Doctor Who fan!
FYI, I've got the theme in the files section of this group.
