you are right........ "it's not like the "keyboard follow" function
found on other
synthesizers"......It also doesnt have midi and .the ribbon pitch bend
on only notes held under sustI which is also almost unique to the cs80
as it also appears as a second type of sustain on the Ensoniq
SQ80(bender type[-All notes-/-Held notes-}) which by the way has
polphonic aftertouch like the CS80....
The charm of the CS80 is not how it is like other synthesizers....there
is only 4 user presets....2 panel and the factory presets.....But unlike
other keyboards you can switch between presets on each channels or the
footage of each preset without having to write to a user spot as you
would today in the digital era.....Its all right there before
you......Its dedicated to the performer....And I like its
differences.....as do sound men and producers.....they never need to
search for it in a mix.....its there....
