One section gives you 29 instant presets for grab-and-go sounds, the other is a fully tweakable manual synth with a single VCO, a 12dB lowpass and its own ADSR. Dual CV\/Gate means you can drive both sections at once for quasi-duophonic tricks, all wrapped in that warm, slightly wonky CS-family character in a gig-ready 37-key package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFEATURES \u0026amp; PROS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo synths in one:\u003c\/strong\u003e 29 presets on one channel, full manual control on the other.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual CV\/Gate:\u003c\/strong\u003e sequence both sections independently for layered or duophonic lines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThat CS filter:\u003c\/strong\u003e the 12dB lowpass that gives the family its warm, vocal bite.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDedicated ADSR:\u003c\/strong\u003e proper envelope shaping on the manual side.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRoadworthy:\u003c\/strong\u003e 37 keys and solid Yamaha build, easy to move.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGENRE \/ USE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSynth-pop, new wave and vintage electronic, where its warm, slightly wonky CS-family tone shines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBasses and leads with that characteristic Yamaha multimode-filter colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlips, bubbles and sample-and-hold textures for ambient and experimental work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA grab-and-go preset mono that hides a deeper manual synth for sound design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE WORD:\u003c\/strong\u003e Synthtopia, highlighting Marc Doty's demo, points out that behind its modest preset panel the CS-15D hides a surprisingly versatile synth engine capable of a wide range of sounds. \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.synthtopia.com\/content\/2010\/11\/20\/yamaha-cs-15d-vintage-synthesizer-demo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eRead more at Synthtopia\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYears: 1979 to 1982\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolyphony: monophonic, dual section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOscillator: 1 VCO per section\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresets: 29\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter: 12dB\/oct lowpass with ADSR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeys: 37\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl: dual CV\/Gate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: used\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49727960285423,"sku":null,"price":15000.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0751\/5992\/9071\/files\/IMG_8542_copy_6f8428ee-93b2-4987-94b1-2f76eaf700c6.jpg?v=1781606624","url":"https:\/\/innerpieces.art\/products\/yamaha-cs-15d-the-preset-packing-mono-with-a-manual-wild-side","provider":"Inner Pieces","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
