Howdy folks.
 Anyone know a trustworthy repair place in the northeast for my Trusty ol'
CS-50? I've 
done quuite a bit of simple repair work, i.e. cold solder joints, replacing
chips, pots, jacks, 
some simple analog tuning/calibration etc. Unfortunately I don't have the
expertise (or the 
time to learn it) for this instrument. If anyone knows a place or person,
please share! I am 
a performer and programmer in upstate NY (poughkeepsie area). Thanks a heap
in advance....

all

It's been years since I've done this operation and I've forgotten how, but
my Multi needs it right about now. Instructions, anyone?

I have a few other questions, but for now this will do. Thanks in advance.

Hi Keith - 
The problem I'm having is: 2 of the 4 oscillators don't sound....right. They
sound like 
they're out of phase; i.e. you can still hear them, they're just very "thin"
and quiet. I let the 
machine warm up for several hours recently and one of the "lost" oscillators
came back 
briefly. Other than that, it's just tuning and calibration; everything else
works.

Can you do it? I will drive the unit to you. Sure as hell beats shipping it
anywhere.

Thanks -
