Welcome To The World Of CS2x
Control Synthesis
Whether you’re a beginner and the CS2x is your very first professional synth, or you’re a seasoned professional making a living
entertaining the masses — or whether you style yourself as anything in between — you’re sure to find the CS2x to be one of the finest
electronic musical instruments you’ll ever own. It’s certainly one of the most
fun.
It can be said that the CS2x is a sort of
analog-style digital synth
. It takes the best of traditional analog — such as simplicity of use, natural
“hands on” interactivity, broad dimensions of sound, an Arpeggiator, and a wealth of real-time control features — and unites it with the
best of modern digital — such as stable pitch, a full 64 notes of polyphony, one-touch setting reconfigurations, a generous 16 MB of
Wave ROM plus lots of storage memory, comprehensive MIDI features, and much, much more.
Another great thing about the CS2x is that there are no pages and pages of hard-to-get-at hidden functions. Literally everything you need
is laid out right before your eyes. And simply a press of a button — or twist of a knob — away. Since all complicated concepts and
frustration factors are eliminated right from the start, the CS2x is quick and easy to learn to operate.
And if you should ever need to use the CS2x as a multitimbral tone generator, you’ll find it the ideal MIDI system component since it’s
designed to accommodate XG and General MIDI System Level 1 (GM) formats with ease. It also lets you set up your own configuration
of multiple timbres using a unique “4-Layer plus 12-Part” system that lets you keep your Performance timbre intact. There’s even a stereo
mini plug input which lets you “mix” the stereo or mono audio signals of an external component such as a sampler or submixer with
the CS2x’s audio output.
All things considered, the CS2x is sweet and simple — but incredibly powerful. Capable of holding its own in literally any music
situation, it’s an exciting world of modern music that you’ll be proud to be a part of.

GM System Level 1
“GM System Level 1” is a standard specification that defines the arrangement of voices in a tone generator and its MIDI
functionality, ensuring that data can be played back with substantially the same sounds on any GM-compatible tone generator,
regardless of its manufacturer or model. Tone generators and song data that meet the “GM System Level 1” bear this GM logo.
XG
“XG” is a tone generator format that expands the voice arrangement of the “GM System Level 1” specification to meet the ever-
increasing demands of today’s computer peripheral environment, providing richer expressive power while maintaining upward
compatibility of data. “XG” greatly expands “GM System Level 1” by defining the ways in which voices are expanded or edited
and the structure and type of effects.
When commercially available song data bearing the XG logo is played back on a tone generator which bears the XG logo, you
will enjoy a full musical experience that includes unlimited expansion voices and effect functions.
