Yamaha Reface CS Synthesizer

Iconic Yamaha CS-series Sounds

Inspired by the iconic CS-80 polyphonic analog synthesizer, the Yamaha Reface CS mobile mini keyboard evokes the very essence of the legendary synth of yesteryear. Packed with five types of synthesis and onboard effects, the Reface CS provides you with a variety of lush pads, fat basses, and solo leads. Of course, the Reface CS wouldn’t be a CS if it didn’t give you tons of tweakability, that’s why each type of synthesis has its own set of Texture and Mod sliders that take simple oscillator types and let you turn them into gentle soundscapes, mangled sonic carnage, and everything in between. At Sweetwater, the mere mention of the CS-80 commands instant respect, so we’re absolutely thrilled to offer you the Yamaha Reface CS mobile mini keyboard!
