Ultravox Hymn 1982 The Hymn' starts with a vocal intro accompanied by a throaty vocoder-type PPG preset mixed with multi-tracked vocals — sounding like a choir. The chorus section main theme is done by Billy on the CS80 (with the ribbon controller — a trade mark of ours!)” E&MM 1983 YouTube

Vangelis The Long March Vangelis: "The solo line in “The Long March” from that album creates the impression of a string instrument very strongly. I think I did that with the Yamaha CS-80. I used that a lot on that album." Keyboard 1982 YouTube (Solo at 1:01)
