In the most friendly way i must coment mathew waters, on saying that the plugg is 99,9% as the real deal, i work as a salesmanager in a synth store, and have the possibility to try a lot of synts, i own a cs80 and alot of other analog synths, here it is. The arturia cs80 is nothing like the cs80 in all aspects, the sound and feel and expression possabilitys, playing with a cs is like playing a organic instrunent, playing the computer plugg is like playing a dvd of a consert instead of being there, i get scared when people say things like mathew does, its like saying look at a picture of paradise, and you will experience the same feeling as beeing there,,,,. People the cs80 is still the best synth ever made, the arturia cs80 is not a synth its software, its not the same thing, the synth sound nothing like the plugg, it sound 99,9% better compared to the software, maby in the future we can be satisfied driving a software car on the computer but when you sit down in a real car is when the magic starts, wake upp.

I have owned two CS80's over the past 15 years one ended up as parts for the other one. I still have my original up and working well and it has a wonderful sound which most other synths can't touch, But this is where all you analog heads are going to hate me! I now use Arturia's CS80V software for recording and for live work because it can create the CS80 sound and more. I have had both the software and hardware synths running together and the software sounds 99.9 per cent as good as the hardware but I do use analog delays and chorus units and not the software effects which does make a hell of alot of difference.

The cs80 is and will forever be the best synt ever made, ive just got one and its in fore repairs, the tuning was out and aftertouch wasnt working, 2 chipps faild the test,but after replacing them almost everything works, its fat sounds awsome, it lives and is still the best synth i have, and i have alot of analog synths.

I got my CS-80 new in '77-78 -if you read carefully what features it had in those days you understand it's significance.As far as tuning goes,today a couple voices are a little of as you cycle through on a single note but it's only been tuned once in 26 years-and moved around L.A. quite a bit.I'm thinking about possibly selling it
