Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about the Yamaha CS1x. How can it be that this 90s classic is absolutely not my thing?

General Midi showed great bravery when he fought in the war.
I've been saying this for almost 20 years now.. there is no bad gear.. just bad musicians.. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
i just can't bring myself to hate this thing. it was my first "real" synth, bought off ebay when i was 16 with the money i'd saved up over the summer. despite its limitations and datedness, i had so much fun messing around and writing songs on it back then. i still love my cs1x, can't imagine ever parting with it!
"Suffering from 90s Dance Rompler PTSD ..." must be the generation after "suffering from DX7 Electric Piano PTSD" ...:)
yamaha cs6r ?
NOW we are at a point where only ONE last bad synth is missing. It's the final enemy: YAMAHA QS300 - Ravers' Babe!
This show is my Netflix.
Yamaha made up for their CS1x sins when they created the An1X ... Is An1X ... Is good 🙂
It is the first time you pissed me off with a review, the first synth I ever got, and I think it is an absolute classic till this day

"I thought using loops was cheating, so I programmed my own using samples. I then thought using samples was cheating, so I recorded real drums. I then thought that programming it was cheating, so I learned to play drums for real. I then thought using bought drums was cheating, so I learned to make my own. I then thought using premade skins was cheating, so I killed a goat and skinned it. I then thought that that was cheating too, so I grew my own goat from a baby goat. I also think that is cheating, but Im not sure where to go from here. I haven't made any music lately, what with the goat farming and all." -- AudioPilz

I like how you leave Ableton's crash notice up for the video. That's a vibe I can really relate to.
the amount of jokes and puns in this one is off the charts, made my day.
"I'm sorry, Yamaha CS1x but we need to break up. It's not you....it's me. No, it's actually you"
The broken case makes it sound more analog too by introducing non-linearities due to the altered air flow. VST's can never emulate that :)
Thank you so much for giving us something to look forward to on lockdown friday nights. The humour is off the charts, as always!
Great review as usual. As an Australian, I found it heartwarming seeing the Austrian flag there.
We use three CS1X synths on stage, the Stanglers ALSO use Three!! fantastic synths to use live, cant rate them enough +++++++++++
The casual bangers you throw into this video are some humble FIRE. Love it. Such an awesome way to be reminded it's Friday. Happy weekend Bad Gear homies!
