Re: CS80 tuning - How good is good enough?


Daniel Forró
 

Maybe it is possible, but is it good to tune it so precisely? I think a certain out-of-tune behavior is normal, and even desirable, in the case of polyphonic analog synth, also random changes in tuning.

For the exact tuning we have digital instruments, many of them with microtonal tuning ability, so we can emulate random detuning, and there's even Random Pitch function on some DX models.

I have been tuning my CS80 again after several minor repairs and adjustments. I was wondering where to stop knowing, that it's good enough.?

My CS80 behaves different cold to warm and that is perfectly normal. I tune it warm of course I have managed to tune it that when I turn it on cold - I hear banging of waves on several voices. After a warm-up they slow down and begin sweeping slowly.

?Other voices are very stable even cold and they stay that way after.?

I hear very slow sweeping that is good enough for me. Is it Ok or should tuned CS80 stay dead stable without barely any sweeping at all between channels (is that even possible)?
