Based on the legendary, monumental synthesizer classics GX-1 as well as CS-80 from the 1970s
Combines the extensive possibilities of the GX-1 with all the functions of its successor, the CS-80, to create a great sound synthesis
Dual-layer voicing architecture with 16 voices per layer
Two different patches with their own controls for layer volume and panning can be played simultaneously in either split or layer mode.
All voicing parameters have been recreated, including filtered waveforms at oscillator level, triangle wave with octave shift and inverted filter envelope control
Precise replication of the filters of both units
Four polyphonic voice groups, each with a voltage-controlled oscillator, resonant high-pass and low-pass filters, noise generator, sine wave, two envelope generators and a velocity-sensitive VCA
Sub-oscillator LFO for each group with sine, sawtooth, ramp, square, sample & hold and noise for modulation as well as tempo synchronisation
Replica of the CS ring modulator, which modulates the summed output of each group pair with its own independent oscillator
Setting of the coarse pitch range for each oscillator in traditional organ foot positions
Accurate emulation of specific playing aids such as ribbon controllers etc.
Independent panning of the groups and layer stereo effects chain allow for wide-ranging, lively stereo sounds
Tone Selector offers all original CS-80 factory presets as well as memory space for custom sounds
Panel control for selecting layers, with functions for exchanging settings between groups in a layer, the lower and upper layers or across presets
Supports channel pressure and polyphonic aftertouch, as well as a last-note priority mode that simulates the behaviour of polyphonic aftertouch.
Full MIDI control and DAW automation
Over 1000 presets
Scalable user interface with focus zoom-in function as well as standard interface zoom and resize by dragging

So here is the GX-80 by Cherry Audio
A hybrid reincarnation of Yamaha's novel synthesizers. The CS-80 and it's predecessor GX-1.
And if you're not familiar with the legendary CS-80, it is undoubtedly the most expressive analog synthesizer ever made!
It was considered by many the ultimate performance instrument and it found it's way on many influential recordings by renowned electronic music pioneers most notably Vangelis (Blade Runner / Chariots Of Fire) and Jean-Michel Jarre (Oxygen 7-13).
It featured the innovative "polyphonic aftertouch" as it's big brother GX-1 (which means you can modulate the sound of each note according to the pressure you apply on each corresponding key), a feature unprecedented for the time (GX-1 released in 1973 / CS-80 in 1978) while still impressive today!
I am really not familiar with the GX-1. It was a massive synth weighing 1 ton with a price-tag of 50K, made before I was born.
I can only imagine what a beautiful synth it was through this emulation!
So let's get to the point... how does the GX-80 sound?
Incredibly... amazing. I strongly recommend this synth. It just captures every nuance of the velvety pads and string ensembles the CS-80 is known for.
Lush sounds , deep bass, ethery leads, it's all there. And honestly, it's not just the sound with this synth. It's the expression!!!
It's aftertouch implementation is just incredible!
They've modelled it so good. The behavior of sound modulation corresponding so well to every key stroke, it gives a whole new meaning to my keyboard's sensitivity!
Congrats to Mark Barton for his DSP work in this.
The effects of the synth are great sounding and the ribbon pitch controller offers some amazing pitch-bending techniques by "touching" the strip directly (instead of using your keyboard's pitch bend wheel- also available).
Well-designed synth with smart menus, resizable (drag) UI and a lovely focus/zoom feature!
The GX-80 comes with 1060 expertly crafted patches and nearly every parameter of the synth can be automated.
Congrats to Cherry Audio
for a brilliant sounding synth with excellent features!

The best virtual synth and most accurate emulation of the CS-80 period
Best virtual CS80 21.08.2023
My favorite VST synth hands down and it sounds far closer to the real CS80 than the Arturia CS80 emulation while costing half as much. It's power hungry (make sure your laptop is plugged in or at full battery - power throttling at lower battery levels will make this VST start popping and skipping. This is the finest sound virtual synth that I have ever heard.

GX-80 son dos synth vst en uno, no solo tenemos una fantastica emulación del famoso Yamaha CS-80-hecho famoso por Vangelis en Blade Runner y Chariots of Fire-, sino que integra al Yamaha GX-1. inclusive podemos hacer sonar dos capas de GX-80 a la vez. Los presets son bastante buenos-trae 1000 presets- y sobre todo, sirven como punto de partida para todo aquel que quiera programar. La instalación es sencilla, solo requiere una cuenta en Cherry Audio, que solo es necesario conectar para activar, sin iLok ni nada complicado. Tiene latencia cero en el DAW . Y la función Oversampling Quality eleva los sonidos a otra dimensión.
En definitiva una compra muy recomendable

Arvokkaimmaksi vintage soittimeksi arvioitu legenda. Editointivalikot ovat hieman pieniä mutta fokus toiminnolla ne saa suuremmiksi. Liut ovat digitaalisena tunnottomat ja hieman pieniliikkeiset. Midimix helpottaa asiaa huomattavasti tuon tunnottomuuden helpottamiseksi.
Editointi on aika laajaa ja vaatii paljon tutustumista ja perehtymistä. Valmiit presetit ovat kyllä laajat ja sieltä löytyy melkein kaikki mahdolliset 'tärkeimmät" soundit.
Hyvä ja edullinen ostos kun vertaa siihen mitä fyysinen tuote maksaisi. Oman kokoelmani kruunu ja käytän paljon tätä vst versiota.
