Re: [yamahacs80] The usage of String 1 and String 2 presets.

2006-05-15 by laurie

You know...I remember reading up on Don Airy and the CS80.......Don Airy
used  CS80 brass 1 & 2  on OZZY Osbournes "Mr Crowely" intro(Glissando
Sust 1) and I believe during the Song you hear Strings 1 and 2 with the
pitch ribbon doing downward slides after the "Waiting on Satans
Call"vocal  line......I heard it on the radio today and thought I should
share that........
