Have you guys even thought about making a CS-80 plugin? I think you are the only ones able to pull it off. I'd buy it for sure.

I doubt it'll happen. ME-80 is already being pulled off and it's very good. :)

Krakli does one also

Well, none of the existing CS-80 emulations sound close to the original.

do you have one?

I sincerely doubt that :lol:

I'll try to make it through Beaubourg again and listen "past the reverb".

Isn't it the same parts as the CS-30, more or less, just two of those with fewer features and polyphonic?

Thing is, we don't have a CS-80 and I don't see that changing - not even with Behringer on the horizon -, let alone dissecting one and sticking probes into it. At least not for a few more years.

Obviously not, but I know the sound...

Oh well, one can only wish...

No, you don't know the sound. You know the processed sound from records, you don't know the raw sound of it. :)

Actual CS-80 owners contributed to ME-80 emulation to sound as close as possible, FYI.

And also there's the case where Behringer might even not nail cloning it sound-wise, too (which, considering how much custom circuitry and hand-wired looms are there in CS-80 is highly likely)...

(surprisingly, a few minutes in, Beaubourg sounds a lot more bearable to me now than it used to. Listening to West Coast synthesis may have shifted my aesthetic boundaries)

Beaubourg is basically Vangelis going "let's see what this ring modulator thingie can do". :lol:

There's not a lot of high quality demos of CS-80 that have NO effects whatsoever. Maybe this:

So far they're pretty much spot on. Behaviour and sound are correct, if a bit "too new".
