The Yamaha CS-80 is an analog synthesizer introduced by Yamaha Corporation in 1977. [2] It supports true 8-voice polyphony, with two independent synthesizer layers per voice each with its own set of front panel controls, in addition to a number of hardwired preset voice settings and four parameter settings stores based on banks of subminiature potentiometers (rather than the digital ...
The Ensoniq SQ-80 is a digital/analog synthesizer manufactured from 1987 to 1989. It was Ensoniq 's update to its first synth, the Ensoniq ESQ-1 . Compared to the ESQ-1, the SQ-80 includes 43 additional waveforms (including five drumkits), an enhanced sequencer, and a floppy disk drive for storing patches and sequences.
Notably, the sound chip at the core of the synth, the 5503 Digital Oscillator Chip (DOC), is a brainchild of Robert Yannes, father of the popular Commodore SID chip.The chip was previously used in Ensoniq's Mirage sampler, later in ESQ-1's enhanced successor SQ-80, as well as the Apple IIGS personal computer.
The YM2612, a.k.a. OPN2, is a sound chip developed by Yamaha.It is a member of Yamaha's OPN family of FM synthesis chips, and is derived from the YM2203. [1]The YM2612 is a six-channel FM synthesizer used in several game and computer systems, most notably in Sega's Mega Drive/Genesis video game console [2] as well as Fujitsu's FM Towns computer series.

It is an 8-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer that was manufactured by Roland between 1984 and 1987. It is the only one of the MKS series of synthesizers to have analogue voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs ...
The Yamaha S80 is an 88-weighted-key [1] synthesizer, produced by Yamaha Corporation. It was released as Yamaha's flagship stage and studio synthesizer in 1999, [2] and retailed for approximately US $3,000 before its discontinuation in 2002. It was superseded by the S90. The S80 is 1,330 millimetres (52 in) long, 157 millimetres (6.2 in) high ...
The design of the Polymoog is a hybrid of the electronic organ and the synthesizer using divide-down technology, much like other string synthesizers of the time. Unlike later 1970s polyphonic synthesizers, such as the Yamaha CS-80 and Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 , the Polymoog cannot create each voice from individual oscillators and filters ...
