The Yamaha CS1x is a sample-based synthesizer piano released by the Yamaha Corporation in 1996. Aimed primarily at dance musicians, the CS1x features analogue synthesizer-style rotary controllers and monotimbral synth voices.[1]
The CS1x was succeeded in 1999 by the CS2x synthesizer.

Features

The CS1x uses the Yamaha Sample and Synthesis technology, as well as General MIDI and XG voices from the MU-50 module.[1]

The CS1x employs various arpeggiator presets and effects such as reverb, chorus (including flanging and celeste) and "variation" (a combination of reverbs, delays, modulation effects and equalisation).[1]

Sequencer

The Yamaha CS1x can be expanded with a small sequencer workstation module. The CS1x, CS2x and AN1x synthesizers all have a small lip on the right hand end of the front panel to accommodate a QY or SU sized module.
