## Overview

The Yamaha REFACE CS is a compact analog modeling synthesizer featuring a 37-key high-quality mini keyboard, 8-note polyphony, and five distinct oscillator types. Designed for modern musicians, it offers versatile sound design through analog physical modeling, an integrated phrase looper for capturing ideas, and built-in speakers for immediate playability anywhere. With USB and MIDI connectivity plus battery operation, it’s a portable powerhouse blending vintage inspiration with contemporary workflow.

## Description

Yamaha Reface keyboards are designed around the practical needs of contemporary musicians. The name of the series, "reface," is a conflation of the idea of reimagining and the legacy of Yamaha's many groundbreaking keyboard instrument interfaces. Among the innovations that it hearkens back to are the legendary CP80, DX7 and Yamaha Combo Organ. This is the reface CS, which has as one of its chief orientations the exciting timbres from the CS5 synth. The reface series is small. Incredibly small. But unlike miniature keyboard instruments of the past, the reface touch is satisfying and expressive, and the sound is nothing short of spectacular. The reface family of keyboards features built-in speakers and is battery operable so you can create on the go. An aux line in allows you to play along with MP3 players or whatever other audio device you wish to use. Add MIDI and USB connectivity, and the preface's capacity to interface with external devices is vast. Not just another monophonic analog clone, the 8-note polyphonic Reface CS’ five unique oscillator modules create an incredible variety of sounds from warm and fat analog to crisp and clear digital. The intuitive Texture and Mod controls take simple oscillator types and turn them into complex and sophisticated waveforms. Animate your sound with the simple but powerful LFO and EG and add depth, flavor and attitude with the onboard effect and filter. If you’ve got a song idea or want to build a performance from the bottom up, you can capture it using the onboard Looper. For keyboardists and sound designers needing a huge variety of polyphonic synth tones, Reface CS is a mini-key synthesizer with heritage from the renowned CS and AN synthesizers featuring multiple oscillator types each with a unique character. Unlike synthesizers that only offer single synthesis types or only play one or two notes at a time, Reface CS features additive and subtractive synthesis and 8-note polyphony.

Review: Having tried my hand at recording music through Ableton Live, I discovered and have enjoyed DAWless jamming. My current setup is this synth, along with it's brother Yamaha Reface DX, both controlled by a Novation Circuit Tracks. I enjoy the Circuit Tracks not only because of it's tones and workflow, but also because of it's portability. It has it's own battery which makes it nice for carrying to the various synths I own. As time passed, I began to use the Reface DX more and more since it can take batteries as well. I wished for one like it, then remembered seeing this Reface CS. I got lucky and found this here on desertcart. I am no expert at electronic synthesis, but I've been at it for over 10 years so I have some experience. I find this synth to be the most approachable one I've used to date. While this means this synth isn't the powerhouse that others are in this price range, this synth is still capable of a wide variety of tones and sounds great! One nuance that plays strongly to this is it is easy to dial in some historic tones. For example, choose a sawtooth for this synth's oscillator, max out the Texture and Mod slides, open up the filter and dial in some Resonance, and presto! You've got the classic "Supersaw" tone from rock songs in the 80's! Now, since this is a Reface synth, it has the same features as the others: Tiny onboard speakers that are better than nothing, but fail abysmally to showcase these devices' awesome tones, mini 37 keys that I'm sure some would gripe about the feel (I'm fine with them...When I use them), and the odd mini SV port that splits into DIN MIDI in and out via an included dongle. While I run both Reface synths on battery power, I very much appreciate the fact that Yamaha also includes a DC power supply as well. Between this and my other pieces of gear, I have oodles of tonal flexibility. Since this synth can be hard set to be monophonic or polyphonic, even playing it unsequenced is easy. I also gratefully note that just like the Reface DX, this CS behaves perfectly fine being sequenced by the Circuit Tracks. I've been having a blast playing this with the Reface DX and Circuit Tracks and I can't help but wonder how my synthesis journey would have turned out had I started with this CS instead of a MicroKorg and Novation MiniNova. Those are excellent synths but have a steep learning curve if you're new to electronic synthesis. I take pride in the fact that I stuck with them until I figured out how to use them, but I wonder how different it would have been had I started with this CS, given how much more approachable it is. I have one major gripe with this synth though: Programming it is a pain!! I needed it to send and receive MIDI commands on channel 4. Since the Reface DX has a screen, programming that to channel 3 was easy. A quick internet search found detailed instructions for programming this CS via SysEdit commands by connecting it to a PC. I didn't want to bother with that, and kept looking. Thankfully, a gentleman on YouTube has a short, concise video on how to program the CS with regard to MIDI channels. It took me a couple of tries but I finally got this synth dialed in to send/receive MIDI on channel 4, and it's worked fine ever since. But, this is the most un-user friendly side of this synth. Finally, I haven't had this synth for very long, but I've had my Reface DX for a few years and even despite some rough handling and drops, it works perfectly fine, so I expect the same from this one!
Review: Ce petit clavier est immédiatement plaisant. Look vintage, pas d'écran / menu / etc.... un truc qui ne demande qu'à être branché ou mis sur piles et hop. Les sonorités d'orgues sont top, on se fait plaisir immédiatement. Idéal pour faire une jam avec un gratteux sans ramener un clavier, son stand, son ampli et j'en passe. Super intuitif. Le clavier est très jouable. Seuls inconvénients, les haut parleurs intégrés souffrent un peu sur certain sons d'orgues dans les notes basses. Par ailleurs, l'option mini-din pour le midi avec son adaptateur fourni ne me semble pas génial à la longue, je ne l'utiliserai pas parce qu'à mon avis c'est supra fragile. Bon, j'ai commandé son frère le Reface CS et je pense me prendre aussi le CP, je trouve le concept de ces claviers tout à fait génial, se concentrer sur la portabilité et la jouabilité pour des claviers spécialisés sur quelques sons, c'est précisément ce qu'un ordi ne fera pas. Merci Yamaha.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does include the ac adapter?**
A: I don’t have the”CS” but I do have the CP and it did have the adapter with it.

**Q: Can i control a modular synthesizer software like vcv rack with this keyboard? it would be awesome!!**
A: Absolutely!!

**Q: Does it comes with sounds already in it, or is it strictly midi?**
A: It's a sound generator with envelope, filters, lfo, effects, and a looper. It does midi, but it's not loaded with banks of sounds. you design the sound with the sliders. there are a lot of demo videos. You can literally take photos of the way the sliders are set as a way of memorizing good patches easily.

**Q: Does this have a headphone jack?**
A: Yes, it does. I love this little "toy."
