Hi,
I'm also pretty new in these forums here...
Just bought a CS-80 from RL Music.
For great reverb FX I'd really recommend e.g. a Roland SDE-330. Although it is an (early) digital reverb processor, its possibilities and sonic qualities are great. You'd find one often on e.g. Ebay for ± $250.
It has all kind of great reverbs included, from short gated drum reverbs over great plate reverbs, room, etc... 'till several very beautiful cathedral reverbs, all basically present in excellent factory patches but with enough user patches that you can define yourself. The "Dark Cathedral" patch is awesome pretty known.
Anyway, if you rather search for an old dirty non-digital reverb, you can check out the Roland Tape Echoes RE-201/301/501/555. Limited in variations, but the great sound often used by the 70ies Prog Rock bands or e.g. electronic legends like Tangerine Dream.
2nd hand prices there are currently $500 or more.
Cheers,

Subject: [yamahacs80] good effects/reverb for a CS-60
Hi,
newbie question here.
I recently purchased a CS-60 in perfect working condition (funny story
it was used for 10 years at a clinic to produce sounds and test them on
test subjects for some experiments, didn't exactly know what kind of
tests they were). It came with the foot switch and foot controller. I
am quite happy with it, this is my first analog synth!
I am now shopping for a great reverb/effect to complement this, hoping
it can provide additional sonic possibilities. I am wondering if
someone can recommend some good effects modules that would bring this
synth to its potential, and maybe more...
cheers,
ocean
