Duncan,
most of the circuits in the CS60 are the same as in the CS80 (voice/M
cards, keyboard scanner). There are links from the Links page to
some of the circuit diagrams. Most of these should apply. Crow's
CS80 tuning adjustments (www.cs80.com) should probably work for the
CS60. Any differences anyone knows of?

Different pitch? volume? brightness? When you repeatedly hit a hit,
it rotates through the 8 voice cards (actually, it's a little
trickier than that). The easiest way to figure out which card is
which is to pop the lid up. You'll see the 8 identical voice cards
in the rack (good pic of CS60 here:
www.nougat.org/~cchen/pictures/2002/07-07-Yamaha-CS-80/trythis.jpg).
If you cleaned all the little trim-pots on the voice cards, you've
certainly thrown the tuning to hell.
Hold down a note and then touch each of the circuit cards. When you
touch the card that's sounding, you should hear a little modulation
of the sound. I don't remember where the best place to touch the
card is (it's been a few years). Anyone else?
