CS-80 Virtouso is the definitive ultra-deep sampled (UDS™) synth. The most detailed sampling of the Yamaha CS-80 ever done.
The legendary polyphonic synth, immortalized by Vangelis in Blade Runner and Chariots of Fire. Prominently featured in global hits like Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean, Toto’s Africa & Rosanna, Springsteens’ Born in the USA. Later Hans Zimmer, Taylor Swift, Paul McCartney, Empire of the Sun, Walking on a Dream and countless others used the CS-80.
CS80 Virtuoso includes over 400 expertly crafted programs built from more than 270 UDS™ sampled parts, organized into categories: Arps, Basses, Bells and Plucks, Brass, Keys, Leads, Noises, Pads, Presets (Factory Classics), Presets (Famous Tracks), Ring Modulated, Strings, Templates (Quick Starters), and Unisons. This specific CS-80 was modded with a rare Unison mode, routing all voices into one massive note. Extensively UDS™ sampled for maximum authenticity. Featuring deep curated collections of programs used by Vangelis and other iconic artists, with dozens of expressive variations for each. You don’t just get one Blade Runner lead. You get dozens. The result is instant inspiration and deep creative flexibility.
Each UDS™ sampled part features up to 29 round robins per key, totaling over 30,800 samples, meticulously capturing the natural variability and subtle nuances of authentic analog sound.
We applied our proprietary C.A.F.™ technology to faithfully capture the tonal character of the CS-80’s analog filters, including the original lowpass and highpass designs. We further expanded sonic possibilities with an exclusive custom bandpass C.A.F.™ model, adding even more versatility and depth to your sound design palette.
The library also includes over 160 high-resolution Leica images, which users can browse while playing—offering an intimate, immersive feeling of sitting right there with the instrument.
CS–80 UDS requires Soundpaint 4.2.0 or later.
