Subject: Re: [AN1x] Aftertouch range modification

Hi Magnus,

I've been proposing this for years but... nobody seems to have a schematic
so I can start the project.

If I get my workshop set up soon, I'll just open it up and try inserting
resistors in series with the aftertouch strip until I find the range.
Then it would be either a fixed resistor, or for more fine control,
drilling and putting a variable resistor on the outside of the unit
somewhere. (I miss this similar control on my Roland JX-10.)
Unfortunately, IIRC the strip is not set up with any easy way to determine
where it's wires (or connector) enters the main circuit.
