Hi all.
About once a month (oops - it's been about 6 months...) I'll send out
this quick reminder about what's available in this Yahoo CS80 group.
There are several new members in the group - welcome! The first thing
to do is look at the Messages page to see what everyone has been
talking about the last few months. There are over 200 messages,
covering dozens of topics!
This has been a great group. We've been going for about a year and a
half now, with lots of excellent topics and help for CS80 owners. I'd
like to thank everyone, especially for avoiding the arguements and
attacks that seem to creep into almost every Internet group and forum.
Under Files, there are some mp3s of tunes featuring CS80. They're
pretty low bit rate to make the files small. Please suggest other
songs that show off the CS80. There are also some pics and a
spreadsheet related to the messages about the CS80 pressure sensors.
Under Database, I created a really simple, easy to use, list of CS80s
known to people on the list. Please take a minute and enter your
keyboards! It's very quick and easy.
Under Links, I have bunch of links to info about the CS80, both
technical and about artists who use them. Please send me other links
to add!
The Photos section has a pictures of some CS80s owned by group members
(many more of mine, inside and out, at www.therogoffs.com/cs80).
Feel free to put in some pics of instruments, or people (including
you) playing.
And, for those of you who deal with this list via email, don't forget
to check the site at
http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/yamahacs80. In addtion to the
stuff I just listed, you can also see an archive of past messages.
Please send me any suggestions about changes or additions to this
site to make it better and more useful.
And, of course, start discussions about our favorite synth! What's
your favorite feature? Sound? Band/artist that uses it? Where did
you first hear/play one? If you have one, what do you play on it?
Thanks,
David
