Here comes my wish list:

Auto Tune, most definitely. Indicator LEDs on each voice board that show you which is active (if theres no auto tune possible and you have to tweak them in tune yourselves). External stabilized and regulated power supply, built to military standards (which might solve some temperature-based problems. If not, it makes the instrument 20 kg lighter... which is a good thing if youve moved house as often as I did in the past). Less noisy built-in Chorus/Tremolo with an input level / output balance pot rather than just on/off. Ventilators (heavy duty computer fans, temperature-controlled). Lighter enclosure 8)... I wouldnt want anything that potentially puts the playability of the CS at risk (like MIDI which I deeply mistrust anyway, but MIDI and CS80 go together as well as Chocolate Sauce and Smoked Eel). No, seriously, folks, I am not one of these snobbish purists whod say all innovation is bad right from the start but I think its just hard to find anything as immediately satisfying as far as musicality is concerned as the CS-80. I wouldnt want to control it from somewhere else, and I wouldnt want to use it as a master keyboard controller, either, as most other synthesizers are not designed to respond the way a CS80 does. Using it within a setup should always bring out your musical wit and your musical skills, rather than having its track perfectly synced to your other stuff. Stephen.
