transformative virtual synthesizer, legendary GX-1 "Dream Machine", descendant CS-80, iconic instruments

The GX-80 is a transformative virtual synthesizer that goes far beyond simply emulating the legendary GX-1 "Dream Machine" and its descendant, the CS-80.

Carefully crafted by award-winning developer Mark Barton, it meticulously recreates every detail of these iconic instruments while pushing the boundaries of sonic possibility. Beyond Replication: Dual-layer architecture: GX-80 combines the power of both the GX-1 and CS-80, offering two independent layers with 16 polyphonic voices each. Play two distinct CS-80-style sounds simultaneously, pan them independently, and create stunningly rich, layered soundscapes. Unveiling the GX-1's secrets: GX-80 faithfully captures the unique sonic characteristics of the GX-1, including its highpassed resonant pulse wave, octave-up triangle wave, and legendary filter capabilities. Explore a new universe of sonic possibilities that even the CS-80 couldn't offer. Performance-focused features: GX-80 offers a split keyboard mode and supports both polyphonic and monophonic aftertouch, allowing for expressive and dynamic performances. Additionally, the innovative "last-note priority" mode simulates polyphonic aftertouch using a monophonic controller. More than just a synthesizer: Presets and effects: GX-80 comes pre-loaded with over 1,000 professionally designed presets, offering a diverse range of sounds to inspire your creativity. Studio-quality effects further enhance your sonic palette. Unprecedented sound quality: Mark Barton's meticulous research and modeling ensure that GX-80 captures the essence of the originals with exceptional accuracy. The result is a truly immersive and authentic sonic experience. A gateway to the future: GX-80 is not just a nostalgic recreation of the past. It's a powerful tool for exploring the sounds and music of an unrealized future.
