standard wall adapter or AA batteries. (not included, but the unit has been tested using both options)” Link
“Verkaufe meinen Yamaha CS01 MkII Analog Synthesizer. Der Synthesizer hat eine Minitastatur und auch die optionalen Gitarrengurt Halter. Er kann sowohl über Batterie als auch via 9Volt Netzteil betrieben werden. Obwohl er über eine Mini Tastatur verfügt ist der Sound alles andere als Mini!.
Fetter Analog Sound!!! Gerade die Modulierbare PWM klingt sehr breit. Der Zustand ist Sehr Gut.” Link
” You are bidding on a Yamaha Synthesizer CS01. This item is in great condition and plays great. There are some scratches from wear but nothing significant. The pads on the one back side are missing as shown in picture. This synthesizer is also missing the shoulder strap and attached knob for the strap. Six “AA” batteries are needed and not included. Nine volt adapter will also work but not included. All knobs and sliders are good. The very last key to the right does not work but I am not sure if its is suppose to or if it is just a blank key.” Link
“Hi there and thanks for looking! This is a Yamaha CS01 analog synthesizer. This item is used. Includes keyboard only. Operates on 6 “AA” batteries (not included) or 9V-12V DC adapter (not included). Synthesizer shows some signs of wear all over, including some scuffs and worn places, and a small bit of melted or damaged plastic near the power input, but overall, it’s in very good condition given its age (please see photos below). All keys, knobs, sliders, wheels and switches work perfectly, though some produce a very small amount of noise/static during movement. Original strap pegs and battery cover are all in place and intact. ” Link

“Yamaha CS-01 mit MIDI-Nachrüstung
(English version below)
Angeboten wird ein monophoner Analogsynthesizer aus den frühen 1980er Jahren. Der CS-01 sieht mit seinen Mini-Tasten zwar ein bisschen aus wie ein Spielzeug, kann aber dank PWM und Analogfilter ziemlich fette Lead- und Bass-Sounds produzieren. Dank Batteriefach und Gitarrengurtknubbeln kann man ihn sich auch als Keytar umhängen.
Bei dem hier angebotenen Exemplar wurde mit einem Kit von highlyliquid.com ein MIDI-Eingang nachgerüstet. Damit kann der CS-01 über externe Sequencer oder Keyboards angesteuert werden. So kann man ihn über seinen gesamten Tonumfang spielen, während das interne Keyboard nur zweieinhalb Oktaven umfasst. Die Funktionalität des eingebauten Mini-Keyboards beeinträchtigt der Umbau in keiner Weise. Es musste aber der interne kleine Lautsprecher entfernt werden, um Platz für das MIDI-Kit zu schaffen. Kein großer Verlust: Der Lautsprecher klang eh ziemlich mies. 
Das Gerät ist gebraucht und hat ein paar Kratzer, ist aber voll funktionstüchtig. Auch der Batteriefachdeckel ist noch dabei – die gehen ja gern mal verloren.
Selbstabholer in Berlin willkommen. Fragen bitte vor dem Bieten stellen! Der Verkauf erfolgt von privat und unter Ausschluss jeglicher Gewährleistung.
Schaut Euch auch meine anderen Auktionen an, ich räume gerade ein bisschen mein Studio aus und biete noch andere schöne Musikspielzeuge an. Viel Glück beim Bieten!

Yamaha CS-01 with MIDI retrofit
Up for auction is an analog monophonic synthesizer from the early 1980s. The CS-01 may look a bit like a toy, but it can produce some fat bass and lead sounds. It can run on batteries and has holders for a guitar strap – so you can strap it on like a keytar.
This particular unit has been retrofitted with a MIDI input kit by highlyliquid.com, so it can be played by external sequencers or keyboards. This way you can play its entire tonal range, while the internal keyboard only has two and a half octaves. The mod does not affect the functionality of the internal keyboard in any way. But in order to make room for the MIDI kit, the CS-01′s internal speaker had to be removed. Not much of a loss – it sounded pretty awful anyway.
This CS-01 is in used condition and has some scratches, but is fully working. It comes complete with its original battery lid. ” Link

“Up for sale is a Yamaha Cs 01 analog synthesizer. It is in great working condition, nothing is wrong with it, works perfectly. Does not come with a power adapter but it does have batteries. Buyer pays for shipping.” Link
“I am selling this CS-01 in excellent condition (hardly used), with power supply, a guitar strap so you can move around while playing and it has a breath control unit (also as new) for extra sounds simluting brass and woodwind style instruments. I also have the original manuals and the original pacakging. All items have been stored in clean dry conditions away from sunlight. The CS-01 is a classic analog monosynth from Yamaha. Although originally designed for use by novice musicians or first time synth-buyers, the CS-01 has been recognized by today’s electronic musicians as one fat little bass machine with simple controls. In a nutshell, the CS-01 is simple to use and edit but still has some great features for any situation. It’s tiny and portable, it has baby-sized keys and it can run on mains power or batteries, and there is a built-in amplifier and speaker which is quite fun or line-out connection. As for sounds and synthesizing, the CS-01 is the perfect monosynth for bubbly and growling bass! It features a very nice 12dB resonant VCF filter. In addition to the oscillators’ sine and square type waveforms there is PWM and noise. There are also LFO controls, glissando (like portamento), a typical ADSR envelope generator, pitch & mod wheels and a breath controller input. The CS-01 may look simple or toy-like but it is still able to create cool little analog bass blips, bass lines and bass bubbles that are just perfect for today’s electronic musicians. It has been used by the Dust Brothers, Underworld, OMD, Richard Barbieri and Chick Corea. This little baby just wants some-one with musical talent to put it through it paces and lay down some serious sounds ” Link
“You are viewing a vintage analog Yamaha CS-01 synthesizer. I recently had it refurbished, so it is in perfect working condition. The technician who worked on it added one unique touch: when I purchased this synth, it had no power adapter input, and consequently he added an RCA power input as pictured above. I will include the power adapter with the keyboard.
One note: it is best not to leave the batteries in this CS-01 if you will be using the power adapter. The batteries can get really hot as a result.” Link
“up for auction is one yamaha cs 01 mkii vintage analog synthesizer. works excellent. battery powered analog awesomeness you can bring to your next camping trip this fall. dead simple to use and an absolute blast. very very fun.
absolutely no functional issues whatsoever exist. however, there is one cosmetic issue: a large scratch to the right of the keyboard (see last picture). i have no idea how this happened, as i bought it like that. but other than being a bit unsightly, its no real cause for concern.
i don’t have the power adaptor, manual or breath controller, unfortunately. but i’m 99% sure you can buy a power adaptor for it at radio shack and anyway, it’s made for use with batteries so play it that way! ” Link
“Excellent. The unit shows some signs of normal use, some light nicks and dings, but is overall in terrific shape, especially considering its age. Works perfectly and sounds awesome!” Link
“For your consideration is the very rare Yamaha CS-01 MKII.
The unit has been gently used and shows almost no cosmetic wear(see pics).
The MKII version has a much more versatile filter than the standard CS-01.
No other synth packs as much analog goodness in such a small package.
The unit has been fully tested, everything works great, and it sounds amazing.
Guaranteed 100% working and in one of a kind excellent cosmetic condition.

“Yamaha CS-01 mk1 1980s vintage analog synthesizer
Note this is the Mk1 version with a grey case and a 12db filter with switchable resonance from Low to High settings.
Cosmetically in good condition – a few light scratches as you would expect for a synth of this age – the most obvious one is under the PWM Speed slider (see photos).
All knobs keys and sliders etc. working as they should. The battery compartment looks clean but I’ve only ever used it with a power supply. I don’t have a breath controller so haven’t been able to test if the breath control functions work but assume they should be fine.
No manual or original box. I don’t have the original power supply and have just run it using a standard 12v power adaptor which seems to work fine (which I can include if you ask me to – please remember to do so when you pay for the item).” Link

“Up for auction is my Yamaha CS-01 MKII.
Don’t let it’s size fool you. This little monosynth puts out a mean 50/50 duty cycle square wave bass sound. very similar to the SH-101 tonality.
This particular unit is the MKII version featuring a 24db lowpass filter (rather than the 12db filter of the MKI) as well as a proper Resonance slider rather than just a High/Low switch.
This unit functions 100%. No scratchy pots or sliders. Feel free to do a youtube search on “Yamaha CS-01″ to hear what these units can do for yourself.
It comes with the guitar strap pegs installed. No power supply is included, it runs off 12v DC @ 300mA but you can find the proper unit at any local radio shack or proper electronics store.
I personally always used it with batteries. No rusting or battery leakage in the compartment.
ALSO, this unit comes with a Highly Liquid CS-01 MIDI kit to retrofit midi control for the unit. It is a complete kit, unistalled. Any competent technician could easily follow the instructions to install it. I personally never had the time. ” Link
“Ich löse mein kleines Heimstudio auf, deshalb biete ich hier den Synthesizer Yamaha CS01 II (2) an. Das Gebrauchtgerät hat 32 kleine Tasten, einen eingebauten Lautsprecher und kann mit Batterien oder Netzteil betrieben werden. Leider habe ich das Netzteil nicht mehr, es ist also NICHT im Lieferumfang enthalten. Es eignet sich fast jedes Universalnetzteil (Input 220V, Output 12V 300mA). Dafür kommt der CS01 in Originalverpackung.
Der Synth ist nur einstimmig/monophon spielbar und besitzt ein VCO, VCF, LFO, VCA und EG (siehe Bilder). Ferner sind zwei Modulationsräder vorhanden: Pitch Bend und Modulation. Die Version 2 dieses Gerätes hat im Vergleich zum Vorgänger keinen Resonazschalter (Hi, Lo), sondern einen Resonanzregler.
Der CS01 II besitzt einen Eingang für einen Breath Controller. Da ich einen solchen nicht besitze, kann ich dessen Funktion nicht überprüfen. Deshalb verkaufe ich den Yamaha-Synth vorsichtshalber als DEFEKT. Ansonsten funktioniert das Gerät, es weist normale Gebrauchsspuren auf (siehe Bilder). Die Schieberegler sind nicht ausgeleiert, knacksen aber an manchen Stellen ganz leicht. Neben dem Anschluss für ein Netzteil, sind noch ein Line Out und ein Kopfhöreranschluss vorhanden (beides große Klinke).
Und wie klingt das Teil? Wie bei allen monophonen Synthesizern liegt der hauptsächliche Schwerpunkt auf Bass- und Leadsounds. Natürlich kann der “Kleine” nicht mit einem Minimoog mithalten, aber man kann ihm durchaus interessante und satte Klänge entlocken. Einfach mal auf einer bekannten Videoplattform (you…) suchen, dort findet man einige Soundbeispiele. Besonders der User syntezatory (pl) schöpft das Klangspektrum voll aus, erstaunlich was er aus dem CS01 II holt.” Link
“You are viewing a Yamaha CS01 synthesizer – a collectable / classic item from the 80s.
This item is in very good condition for its age, still in its own original box and in full working order. It’s a great piece of kit with a wide range of sounds and effects. Being lightweight (for something like this) and very portable it is ideal for someone into serious sounds or for someone who just wants to have some fun.
The unit requires either 6 AA batteries or a mains adaptor – neither are supplied.” Link

THERE SEEMS TO BE A LITTLE BIT OF CRACKLING THROUGH THE INBUILT SPEAKER WHEN YOU TURN IT OFF AND ON SOME OF THE SLIDERS (I GATHER THIS IS PRETTY COMMONPLACE) ALTHOUGH THE MORE I HAVE PLAYED THIS HAS PRETTY MUCH STOPPED, I PRESUME BECAUSE IT HASN’T BEEN USED FOR SO LONG. A LITTLE CONTACT CLEANSER WOULD REMEDY THIS IF YOU HAD THE INCLINATION.

“I bought this in 1984 but, after an initial burst of enthusiasm, that was it as far as my keyboard playing aspirations went.
It’s been virtually untouched for the last 26 years and everything’s still in absolutely perfect working order. With some regret I’ve decided I might as well sell it to someone who’ll appreciate it for what it is – a great, retro sounding, genuine 80′s synth.
It’s in excellent condition – there’s only a few minor marks to the finish, mainly on the underside, and comes in it’s original packaging and box, together with the User’s Manual. There’s even the bill from ‘Windows’ of Newcastle dated 2 June 84!
It runs on mains (adaptor included – though not an original) or 6 AA size batteries.” Link

Synth from early Eighties , no longer used
Works with Power Supply ( included in this sale : 12v DC ) ( never actually even tried it with batteries )
Includes Users Manual as PDF on CD ROM
Battery cover missing ( this went missing years ago , but have always used it with power supply )
It is in working condition but has a few issues which i’ve listed below :
( im sure somebody with a bit of electronics knowledge could sort it , but that sort of thing is beyond me )
In the VCO section it wont select up to 4′ feet and also won’t select the triangle waveform , although this still leaves Sawtooth , Square & rectangle waveforms working ok and the PWM.
Finally the Frequeny cut off no longer does anthing ( as you know this is the one that gets the use , but again can probably be sorted if you know what your doing )
Other than those issues it plays & sounds fine . ( and not too bad cosmetic condition for age – see pics )
I have tried to test it to the best of my ability & be totally honest with its functionality” Link

Welcome to my auction. You are bidding on:

Soft Carry Case and Box
User Manual and a Yamaha book called synthesisers
A new and unused MIDI Kit from Highly Liquid (requires fitting, for instructions see http://highlyliquid.com/kits/cs01-midi/)
Synth is in very good condition with a few tiny marks.
Only problem is that 6 of the keys do not appear to be working (Lower C Sharp to F Sharp)
I have just pulled this from the cupboard to test before sale and think there maybe a loose connection (could be easy fix for someone with electronics knowledge)

“Ich verkaufe meinen Yamaha Synthesizer CS-01. Der Synthesizer ist voll funktionsfähig, ohne Netzteil, jedoch funktioniert er mit Batterien ca. ein halbes Jahr, da die Stromaufnahme sehr gering ist. Der Glissandoregler war leider defekt, und ich habe den Schieberegler durch 2 Schalter ersetzt. Der eine Schalter schaltet den Glissandoeffekt ein und mit dem zweiten Schalter kann man zwischen 2 Glissandozeiten wechseln. Den Pitchknopf habe ich abgezogen, er dient zu Stimmung des Synthesizers. Beim Spielen kann es vorkommen, dass man den Synthesizer mit aufgesteckten Pitchknopf leicht verstimmt. Der Knopf wird natürlich mitgeliefert. Der Yamaha CS-01 klingt sehr satt, richtig schön analog. Man kann geile Bässe, Melodiesounds und bestes Meeresrauschen erzeugen. In der Stellung PWM, wird ein zweiter gleicher Ton dazu gemischt. Den zweiten Ton kann man mit dem Regler PWM Speed verstimmen. Es kommt zu geilen Schwebesounds, die richtig fett sind” Link

“yamaha CS 01 vintage synth FAULTY!
I am listing this as faulty, however, it has been used in my studio with no issues up till a few months ago when the dc input socket became dodgy, this gradually got worse and it now wont power on.
I have taken it apart as i know a bit about electronics and i think it is the power ic on the power stage that has blown due to the dodgy dc input socket.
I have spoken to yamaha and obtained the 2 part nos for both of these parts and they come to a total of 10 pounds.
I am listing this item as faulty as i can not guarentee that these parts will 100% fix it but i am confident that anyone who knows a little bit about electronics will be able to fix it.
its an awsome little synth when working and a collectible classic. I would hang on to it, but it has been hanging around my studio for a while now and it looks like im just never going to get round to ordering the parts and trying to fix it, which is why i have chosen to list it.
i will provide the part nos which i think are faulty with the sale and the service manual can be found online” Link

“Hello. For sale is the ultra rare red Yamaha CS01 analog mini mono synth. I absolutely hate to get rid of this, as i have never seen another red one for sale, but times are tight and i need to sell it . Its not in the best condition, but it is (mostly) functional, and its red!! Cosmetically its a bit rough – there’s an indentation on the speaker, and there’s tape and gunk residue, as well as scuffs. There’s some velcro on the bottom of the unit. Its also missing the battery cover. It has a few functional defects too — the speaker doesn’t work (related to the indentation?), and the modulation and LFO doesn’t work. (i know – bummer). Maybe an easy fix?? Never bothered to look into fixing it. I have no way of testing the breath control as i don’t have the breath controller. Otherwise, everything else works — pitch bend, glissando, all voices in all octaves, all keys, freq. cut off, white noise, resonance, ADSR, etc — everything else works great. It has a fantastic sound – the PWM and Square voices are especially great – thick, meaty, juicy. The outputs work fine. It even still has the guitar strap on pegs. If you’re looking at this, you know how cool of a keyboard this is, and i will probably regret selling it. Sold as is.” Link
“this Yamaha cs-01 analog synthesizer and original breath controller are in great working and physical condition. this synth produces a fat analog sound, and the breath controller allows you to control the VCA and VCF. all the pics in the listing are of the actual unit. a previous owner scratched the word “J ROGUE” into the bottom of the keyboard, but i couldn’t get it to show in the pics. this listing is for the unit, breath controller and breath controller case. this thing is amazing!” Link
