Schmidt is an analog synthesizer with digital control. The analog part has a classic construction, where each voice is technically generated by a set of discrete elements, rather than a common microcircuit. To some extent, thanks to this, Schmidt...
CS-80 was launched in 1976. The multitimbral instrument with analog subtractive synthesis features 8-voice polyphony as well as 2 oscillators per voice. Two synth layers are available per voice. Settings memory is based on a bank of micropotentiometers....
CS-70m is a 6-voice synthesizer featuring 2 oscillators per voice (12 VCOs), two LFOs one of which is programmable, two 12dB filters per voice (12 VCFs), and two amps per voice (12 VCAs as well). The 61-note keyboard supports aftertouch. Memory comprises...
CS-60 is an 8-voice synthesizer featuring one VCO per voice. Oscillators generate square, saw and PWM while sub oscillator offers 4 wave types. There’s also a noise generator incorporated. Memory includes 12 presets and one user patch. The filter section...
CS-10 is a monophonic single-oscillator synthesizer. Its VCO offers saw waveform, variable PW and white noise generating. The only LFO features sine and saw waves. The filter section is represented with one multi-mode VCF. VCA has two ADSR envelopes. The...
The Yamaha DX21 is a synthesizer released by Yamaha in 1983. It is a four-voice polyphonic synthesizer with two digital oscillators and two analog oscillators per voice. It features a variety of sound-shaping controls, including an envelope generator, a...
DX1 is a 32-voice polyphonic bitimbral synthesizer allowing for 2 simultaneous patches. LFO section features Sine/Square/Tri/SAW up/SAW Down/Random waveforms. VCA has 6 envelope generators each of which has 8 parameters. There’s no effects section. The...
DX9 is a 16-voice polyphonic synthesizer based on digital 4-operator FM synthesis. There’s no filter section. VCA features an ADSR envelope. Memory provides with 20 patches. DX9 was released in 1983 – same year DX7 hit the market. Back then it was...
DX11 is an 8-voice polyphonic synthesizer of the famous Yamaha DX series. The 61-note velocity sensitive keyboard with aftertouch is based on the 4-operator digital FM synthesis. There’s no filter section onboard. The effects section is represented with...
CS-40m is a 2-voice synthesizer (duophonic) with two VCOs producing triangle, saw, square waveforms and a noise generator. The LFO section is capable of sine, up-ramp, down-ramp, square, and sample&hold. The filter section is represented with a...
