With the legendary Yamaha Control Synthesizer series, introduced in 1976, music history was written by artists like Vangelis, Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson. In keeping with tradition, the reface CS unites simple handling and creative sounds with a massive dynamic. But the concept was not to clone a monophonic synthesizer: The polyphonic tone generator with 8 voices and 5 oscillator types (multi saw, pulse, oscillator sync, ring modulation, frequency modulation) offers a rich bandwidth of exciting sounds from analogue to digital. All parameters are changeable intuitively using sliders.

 

Analog Physical Modeling Engine with multiple synthesis and oscillator types

Each oscillator type has flexible LFO and ADSR routing plus unique Texture and Mod controls that work as follows:

Onboard effects processor with five types add depth to your sound

The effect types are: OFF (effect bypass,) Delay, VCM Phaser, VCM Chorus/Flanger and Distortion
8-note polyphony allows complex chords and pads or switch to mono Mode for fat synth bass or solo leads

  • Multi-saw
  • Texture, control adds sub-oscillator
  • Mod, layers multiple sawtooth waves
  • Pulse
  • Texture, changes pitch of 2nd square wave
  • Mod, change pulse width
  • Oscillator Sync
  • Texture, changes pitch and tone of OSC2
  • Mod, sets pitch change amount
  • Ring Modulation
  • Texture, changes pitch of OSC1
  • Mod, changes pitch of OSC2
  • Frequency Modulation
  • Texture, sets Modulation amount
  • Mod, changes pitch of the Modulator

Control

  • Based on the FS action found on the flagship Motif XF, HQ (High Quality) Mini Keys provide premium feel and response for fast, accurate and natural playing
  • Integrated Phrase Looper: capture song ideas or just jam
  • Continuous controller pedal input for volume control

Mobility & Connectivity

  • 2W 3cm stereo speaker system lets you play any place, any time
  • Specially designed bass reflex port technology enhances bass response for full, rich sound
  • Battery powered - uses six "AA" batteries with five hours of life
  • USB "TO HOST" allows MIDI connectivity to your USB-equipped computer or iOS device
  • Dual 1/4"unbalanced line outputs provide connection to mixers, audio interfaces, DI boxes and more
  • A 3.5mm aux line input lets you connect and hear mobile devices, tablets and more through the instrument
