Looking at the analytics, I have noted that my reminiscence to/analysis of the Keytek CTS-2000 synth has been found by a number of people that surprises me, given that it is an article about a truly horrible, obscure late-80s hybrid synth in a rather niche blog. Given that, I would like to share some proof that I actually played that thing, and on stage, too. And though it is hard to date the old photographs, I would estimate that I held onto it for quite some time.

So I guess at least the CTS-2000’s keyboard was really decent.

The band, by the way, was named “Voice of the Alien”. You won’t find anything Googling it.

I added another photo to the original article.
