on the panel.

A collection of six rotary Sound Control Knobs are irresistible to the

touch—and provide instant sonic results when turned.

Between the Sound Control Knobs, the clearly labeled panel switches,

and the back lit LCD, the current status of the CS1x is always crystal

clear.

The numeric keypad and other buttons—including Scenes, or

"snapshots" of knob positions—give you quick and easy access to any

parameter or setup you need, the moment you need it.

As such, the CS1x is an unprecedented realtime performance

instrument.

The hundreds of great sounding AWM2 (Advanced Wave Memory

2) instrument voices (created from high quality recordings of actual

instrument and other sounds), three digital effects units (with 11 Reverb,

11 Chorus and 43 Variation type effects) and scores of other parameters

can be configured in an almost unlimited variety of ways and stored in

memory for instant recall.

Performances, or complete configurations of up to four Layers

(voices) playing simultaneously, plus effect and other parameters, and

Multis, or a configuration of up to 16 Parts and other parameters for

multitimbral play (using an external sequencer or computer), provide a

unique array of options which make the CS1x a handy synth for literally

any type of music situation.

Thirty-two notes of polyphony ensure that you always have enough

available notes to play even the most demanding arrangement.

The on-board arpeggiator which can generate various types of

automatic arpeggios or be controlled by an external MIDI clock provides

an extremely useful tool for spicing up your masterpieces—or setting

the dance floor on fire.

Go forth and multiply…

As simple—yet powerful—as the CS1x is on its own, it has also

been specially engineered to easily fit right into any type of expanded

music system you wish to create.

General MIDI (GM) compatibility makes the CS1x an ideal

multitimbral tone generator for accurately playing any of the many

Standard MIDI File or other commercially available GM music data using

an external sequencer.

XG compatibility makes the CS1x completely state of the art—

conveniently able to take advantage of the expanded sound and

expressive capabilities that this exciting new format will offer in the

coming months and years.

A TO HOST terminal and HOST SELECT switch provides for direct

interface with either PC and Macintosh computers, thus enabling you

to easily jump right into the "desktop music" revolution without the

need for any additional peripheral interfacing equipment.

If you're a first-time synthesizer owner, the CS1x lets you expand

your music system at your own pace.

First you might want to add an affordable Yamaha QY series

sequencer and take advantage of the CS1x's powerful multitimbral

capabilities. With a QY sequencer you can record and play back up to

16 music "parts", each on an independent MIDI channel—just like a

multitrack recorder, but with virtually unlimited editing capabilities.

Next you might want to add the compact, low-cost Yamaha SU10

sampler which lets you capture music phrases and other sounds to add

an entirely unique dimension to your music.

Finally you might want to add a computer which will let you take

advantage of the many different types of music software products now

available plus those yet to come.

With the CS1x at the heart of your system, you're ready to grow

your own unique music system and take your musical capabilities as far

as you want—naturally.

perform and listen to music.

Global design standards ensured that music hardware and software

products made by different manufacturers could work together

seamlessly.

But alas, digital did not create a perfect world.

Chaos reigned over the land…

As convenient, dynamic and accessible as digital synthesis was, still

it was not perfect. It had certain limitations, though different ones than

analog synthesis.

Streamlined panel layouts and the demise of the knob meant that

all those hundreds of great new features had to be organized and stacked

in pages and subpages of hidden menus—which might mean several

presses of one or more buttons just to find a feature, and several more

to actually manipulate it.

And the steep learning curve of many digital synthesizers became a

legend unto itself. Alarmingly, the synth was on its way to becoming a

thing of science, rather than an intuitive musical instrument.

It was, therefore, inevitable that many would come to mourn

nostalgically for the days of simplicity—for the knob. For those warm,

fat, wonderful analog sounds. For fewer hidden features.

And for a simpler, easier to use electronic instrument.

There was a definite need for an analog-style digital synthesizer

that would have intuitive knobs plus all the benefits of digital memories

and other convenient—especially interactive—features.

One that could satisfy even the most die-hard advocate of analog or

digital synthesis.

A perfectly versatile synthesizer as attractive to first-time synth

owners as to desktop music hobbyists, serious amateurs, and even

seasoned professionals.

A powerful stand-alone performance instrument with hot dance

music and other versatile voices, as suited for the cutting edge as for the

classics.

An ideal multitimbral MIDI component which could fit right into

even the most sophisticated expanded system.

One with extremely modest pricing for such powerful utility.

It was only a matter of time before the thunder of analog would

unite with the lightning of digital to once again challenge convention

and ultimately change the landscape of music possibilities yet once more.

And Yamaha heard their cries…

Fortunately Yamaha recognized that something new and significant

must be created to bring together the best of both analog and digital

worlds.

The result was the Yamaha Control Synthesizer CS1x.

The CS1x takes the best of analog—simplicity of use, natural

interactivity, thick sound, and, of course, the knob—and unites it with

the best of digital—reliable pitch, plenty of memory, one-touch setting

reconfigurations, hundreds of voices, MIDI, and much, much more—

to begat a truly unique "control" synthesizer.

One with all the familiar concepts loved by both analog and digital

afficianados. One destined to satisfy even the most meticulous purist in

each camp.

Nothing to hide…

Perhaps the most striking—certainly refreshing—aspect of the CS1x

Control Synthesizer is the way it wears its heart on its sleeve.
