开云体育If there would be documentation for all
those addons it might be interesting for lets say 15k. (10k for a
only half working CS80, 5k for the super rare addons).
But guess why there were "a?couple reputable shops[...]who said they didn’t want to work on it". If there is no documentation, then the only chance will be to remove all the addons and restore it into a working normal CS80. Am 23.01.24 um 22:16 schrieb Teo Halm:

whats the lowest price you guys have seen a working cs-80 go for in the last couple years? On Tue, Jan 23, 2024 at 1:36?PM Florian Anwander <fanwander@...> wrote:

quite out of tune, scratchy trimmers, very unreliable switch
contacts, but basically everything working. Not a single chip
failure! I know both, the seller and the buyer (none of them is
me). The synth still is before finishing.
"Investment" until now: 120 hours (done by the buyer). If you'd bill the usual hourly rate of a synth technician here in Germany that additional investment would sum up to around? 10k - 12k Euros. Am 23.01.24 um 22:53 schrieb Teo Halm:

yeah, given the post-scarcity market situation, even 5k is asking a

lot for this, given the massive amount of work every unit needs. back when it was the only really good synth with poly AT, and the only way to get a cs80 sound, it was worth a bunch more. but not anymore. first, a lot of amazing analogs came out, which are objectively just better than cs80. then, a bunch of very good cs80 VSTs came out, so now the cs80 is the only way to get a cs80 sound *in analog*. then, good clones came out, so the cs80 isn't the only way to get the cs80 sound... in any way. meantime, a bunch of very good polyphonic aftertouch controllers and surfaces came out that went way, way beyond what the cs80 can do on its... what, 3-bit? aftertouch. and finally, synths with great performance controls that make the cs80 blush have been around for a long time. meanwhile, the cs80s themselves have been becoming more broken, more decrepit, and more difficult to find replacements for. and the buyer's market *in general* for vanity purchases has dried up. things that would fetch 100k-150k now go for less than 10k (that's how I got my insane quad-amped PMC MB2 XBD setup). people just don't have money at all anymore due to politicians and billionaires stealing it all. the days of high synth (and, in general, collectors' items) prices being possible to rationalize have long gone, sailed away, and they aren't coming back for at least 20 years. there's no scarcity. there's no value proposition. there are no buyers. and there is no money.
