I have two CS-80's fully restored. Bruce deserves all he brought to the table, including making sure he had the greatest poly-synth ever made, to make sure its squelchy signature the ear cannot ignore, and could usher in a hit on its own wings. Whether you agree with his message or style, I think that's pretty smart actually.

i think the synthesizer is horribly out of tune.

+Marcusmiller Nah, sounds more like he has the "BEND" lever down for the initial touch response. It slides the pitch up to what ever notes you're playing, and is touch sensitive. It's meant for simulating that "Brass" pitch stab... however, when it is pulled all the way down, the synth sounds a bit too ...... wonky.

+Adam Borseti no, it's just out of tune I think.

+Marcusmiller these electric synths should be tuned after years stored. four trimpots controls the pitch.

@matthewcannon9699 7 жыл бұрын

It sounds in tune to me, but the initial pitchbend touch response setting needs to be reduced a notch or two. Push the resonance up a bit and you've got the sound spot on.

Matthew Cannon That's what I said. It's that initial touch..... but no, I'm just retarded.

CS-80 is the true legend! It's pitty that Bruce was involved in that stupid propaganda. Conquering wars produce heroes never! *(edit): my bad! The meaning of the song is strongly opposite of what I've thought before. Always check the lyrics!* You can imagine large fields, high mountains and frosty air in the mood of this composition... instead of a war drama and patriotic feelings that was meant to be called by "Born in the USA". The words can be changed easily and these riffs and the solid feel of this song will remain the same.

It is antiwar and also against the way America treats its own people. It is anything but a patriotic celebration.
