Yamaha CS-80 Instruction Manual page 2

H0(
TO
USE THIS
MANUAL
This instruction manual
is
probably different from
any
synthesizer
manua! you
have previously
read.
The
controls
and
functions
are
explained
in
terms
that
should
be
comprehensible
to non-technical and
technically oriented players
alike.
The CS-80
is
a
unique
step forward
in
synthesizer technology, an
advanced and
very playable instrument. This
instruc-
tion
manual complements
the CS-80, and
will also
serve
as a
valuable reference book
for
understanding
many
other synthesizers.
All
CS-80
controls referenced
in the
manual
are
followed by
a
number
in
brackets,
like this: the
VOLUME
control
[2]
.
The numbers
refer to the
callouts
on
the
photograph
inside
the front cover,
Consult
the
INDEX
on page
1
to find other pages
where
the
same
control
is
discussed.
Those who
are already experienced with
synthesizers
may
wish to review the control functions
as
outlined
in
Section
IV.
A
more
detailed
and
less
technical explana-
tion
is
provided
in
Sections
II
and
III.
When
portions of the control panels
are
shown
in
examples,
all
controls not
shown
in
the
example
should
be
set at
the nominal
positions indicated by the
inside
cover photo
(unless othervvise suggested by
the
accom-
panying
text).
Try
the
example
settings
shown, and experiment
as
you
read the
text. Feel free to use your
own
music, and
adjust
your
playing
style to suit the nature of the
patch
you have
selected.
