Guest iep Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 The synth used by BOC often mistaken for a CS80 is a Crumar with a BOC emblem covering the name of the synth on the back. A Crumar Bit1/Bit99? Or another Crumar synth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Assembler Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Weird, I too was taken in by this BoC legend. However, I still think Vangelis used it on the Blade Runner soundtrack... now that's some sweet CS 80 huh? why would he have used a then 10 year old synth on a futuristic soundtrack? The filter sweeps etc on Blade Runner are pure 80's Japanese analogue Maybe this will clear things up: Your browser does not support the HTML5 video tag "Vangelis noodling on the CS80" [source: http://musicthing.blogspot.com/] Jesus, that ring modulation sounds awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds a LOT like Blade Runner and FUCK ALL like Boards of Canada. :on2long: I'm beginning to understand why the CS80 is considered the most fun synth to play...

Guest Iain C Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I would like to touch one because the Blade Runner soundtrack is possibly the first piece of electronic music that touched ME.... emotionally edit: there's such a sense of brooding power under those CS80 chords. Oh yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
