street priceCS-20m is a monophonic synthesizer based on a dual oscillator with subtractive synthesis. There’s a third oscillator producing a sine wave featured in the VCA section which helps to modulate the sound.
The instrument has a 37-note keyboard and offers an 8-patch memory for sounds storage. CS-20m delivers more program locations than other synths of the series except the new CS1x and CS6x models.
The monophonic analog synthesizer has a 3-mode resonant filter offering high pass, low pass and band pass options. The LFO modulates the PWM sweep.
The quality of the analog signal deserves appraisal and the price for the unit is comparatively moderate. The instrument was used by The Crystal Method.
