There's been talk about this kind of stuff before. Look at the thread
http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/yamahacs80/message/350. I know
don't the details, but I know you can change a pin on the keyboard
scanner chip to go from 8 to 4 voice (needed since the same chip is
used in the 8-voice CS-80/60 and the 4-voice CS-50). How you would
get voices 5-8 to pick up the voice 1-4 gate/CV could get ugly.
