Yamaha CS-5 Rare Vintage Monophonic Analogue Synthesiser Serviced! - 100V

The Yamaha CS-5 is a monophonic analog synthesiser introduced in 1979 and produced until 1983. It features a single voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) that offers pulse or sawtooth waveforms, as well as a noise generator. The synthesiser includes a multi-mode filter with 12dB/oct high-pass and low-pass modes, and a 6dB/oct band-pass mode. It also has a low-frequency oscillator (LFO) with sine, sawtooth, and sample & hold waveforms. The CS-5 also allows external audio input, which can be routed through the filter and amplifier sections. Known for its warm analog bass and synth effects, the CS-5 has been used by artists such as Siouxsie and the Banshees, Depeche Mode, Richard Barbieri, and the Sneaker Pimps​
