DSCR22-Hey...........
Sorry for the delay...but Yes I bought one....3 grand.
Being shipped and is to arrive Mon/Tuesday.
Will be an absolute blast......My honesty is that this will be great....I am really
having a challenging time with Pro Tools, a new Mac...finding a contoller
that is good for piano players and not mushy action...etc/etc....
I got drunk Saturday and sat at my piano and sang some great standard
ballads...and sort of reminded myself what the heck I'm doing in music!!
The reason I got the CS80 is that I can layer it with some music that I sing/write
you all might call "Pop-Opera".(Groban/Bolcelli/etc..)So whereas Coldplay... uses it
as a part of their landscape of sound....mostly layers and overtones...
I will be looking to find just the right timbres to accompany a vocal melody line.
I found some beautiful resonance in the 80V...and so wanted to buy an original.
Its funny because most of the synth sounds I've been using are from my old Korg
T1....and the not so subtle joke on me...is that once I have the Cs80...along with
the Yamaha PF and TheKorg T1.....OMG...these babies are all so ridiculously heavy!
It will be real interesting to take these out/etc......But thanks.....I will be certain to
ask for advice as things unfold.
Kind regards, JD
