Well, I'm sure I've done this before, but I'll try it again when I get
home. I just looked at the schematics
(
http://www.synthfool.com/schematics/cs80_1.jpg): the switches (SW-9,
along the top of the schematic, about 3/4 toward the right) turn on FETs
that act as audio switches, turn on/off the output of the wah circuit or
the pre-wah signal. The FETs' outputs are tied together, so if they're
both on there will be a short. I'm a little rusty on my transistor
theory, but I doubt this would hurt them. It certainly wouldn't hurt
anything in the CS-80 beyond those two FETs.
