I ordered the service manual from Roland USA a few years ago.
I am the "guilty" party - I scanned the manual pages, and submitted
them to MM.  I'm sorry that folks haven't been able to get much value
from them.  If I get some time, I'll try to scan and "hand-scrub"
values if needed.

7.  10 volt calibration trimmer. (5 K trimmer)
    This trimmer (properly called VR27), along with Zener 1S2453 and
    a 4558 dual opamp, generates +/-10V.  The actual 10V reference point
    is "above the opamp, where pin 2 connects to a 10K resistor then to
    a 4.7K resistor.

 Pin 2 -- 10K -- (10 volts here) -- 4.7K -- Pin 6

    +-[10K]---+
 [4558]       |
 [    ]     [4.7K] [4.7K] [820] [4.7K] [6.8K] [VR27]
