Wow, that wasn't so hard.

Well I finally grew balls and tried to tune my CS80 by myself.  

I picked up this software:

That strobe tuner is a must have, but it is really hard to get an accurate display at step 16 on A4.  I think I have it right, I would listen for beats, and it would be a very very slow pulse at step 16. 

Also I noticed that on Some voice cards, if I moved my hand away from them after tuning, they would  be sharp of flat.  It must have to do with my hands being magnetic or something I have no clue.  Anyways, I over compensated a bit, and it turned out great.

Also, my VCF doesn't hang on aftertouch anymore.  I am not sure if a wire was kinked, or something.. But I closed it, and everything  works great.  (But I still would love to have some extra parts just in case.)

I want to thank David, and everyone else in the cs80 group.

Thanks!

-Scott
