The CS6R is definitly not as easy to use as its keyboard version. I wouldn´t use it on stage as some of the menus are difficult to edit. The CS6R is a studio machine containing excellent sounds that you can edit in every way. The CS1X limitation (only one voice can use the layer function and effects) is gone. Layer any voice you want! The filters can sound really dirty if you use them in combination with the Resonance. The range of sounds is amazing. There are pianos, basses, authentically sounding guitars, synth basses, brasses, warm pads, bad pads, strange noises, electric seqs. Anything.

Comments About the Sounds:
The CS6R sounds like the CS6X: it sounds any way you want it to be. The Filter Section is one of the best I ever heard. This synth is suitable for every musician working in the electric music domain.

(Thanks to Mess for this info.)
