I have a CS-60, and they are very similar to the CS80, but the CS-60
doesnt have poly aftertouch.
The aftertouch affects across the whole keyboard. Also not as thick a
sound, since there arent as many osc
in the CS50/60.
The thing the CS60 has over a CS50 is that the CS50 doesnt have the
ribbon controller, which I think is a crucial
feature. When I bought my CS60 (back in 1970's) that was the one
thing I had to have, since I couldnt afford a CS80.
