Might be more appropriate to put on some hospital scrubs and wheel it around on a gurney!  At the very least, this would stand as a more accurate demonstration of the CS80's main "feature" as a fussy 35-year-old synth.  ;)  

Thanks for the NAMM updates, David.  I gotta say, with its $599 list price, that Mini MS-20 strikes me as a no-brainer, even if it ends up suffering from a VCA section that's a bit too clean for its own good, as modern analogs often do.
