Yamaha reface CS Analogue Synthesizer

The sound of one of the most legendary Yamaha synth ranges ever - the CS series - is now back in a modern, portable synth loaded with classic, vintage synthesizer sounds! If you're a fan of all those classic Yamaha analogue synthesizer sounds from the past, you'll love the reface CS!

Rich Synth Sounds

But the concept was not to clone a monophonic synthesizer: The polyphonic tone generator with 8 voices and 5 oscillator types (multi saw, pulse, oscillator sync, ring modulation, frequency modulation) offers a rich bandwidth of exciting sounds from analogue to digital. All parameters are changeable intuitively using sliders.

Yamaha Reface CS Analogue Synth Features:

• Eight-note polyphonic virtual synth
• Built-in stereo speakers with bass reflex port
• Powerful hands-on controls for sound creation
• Onboard effects for versatility

Discover and share sounds online

All four reface models offer a rich potential for creative sound design – and the opportunity to get in touch with the whole world: With Soundmondo, Yamaha created an online hub connecting the reface community all over the globe.

Soundmondo offers creative possibilities to create, share and discover sounds. The connection is established intuitively using a special Web MIDI technology for Google Chrome. As soon as a reface model is plugged in, it offers the possibility of direct synchronisation. Voices and set lists can be stored in a private area as well as shared with the community.

Reface iOS App for iPhone and iPad

Quick and easy storage as well as management of sounds with iPhone and iPad: The free reface iOS app for Apple mobile devices makes data transfer extremely simple. A name, a picture and multiple tags can be applied to stored voices; they can be sorted in different ways as well.

Search functionality is also included. Using a set list, voices can be arranged in a specific order and recalled one after the other.

Another impressive feature is the possibility to exchange voices using QR codes: A distinctive code can be generated from any stored voice and can then be shared using the different options available with iOS. It can for example be sent via email or read using the camera of another iPad to import it into the app.
