Okay.... This is completely backward with my tuning proceedure.... 1 make sure detuneII is centred and the dual pitch tuning is centred.... mix 1 for 1-8, mix 2 for 9-16... open her up.... As I know it.....the little blue ten turn pot....is the "pitch" of the 2 foot osc... adjust holding A1 with a plastic screwdriver....clockwise flattens, counter clockwise sharpens..... .....the next larger trimpot is the Octave scaling Calibration (guitarist would call this intonation) between lower and upper (set using 2 foot on A5)...Turn clockwise to compress the range-(A1 sharpens as A5 flattens) or counter clockwise to expand the range (A1 flattens as A5 Sharpens)...then re adjust little blue on A1...repeating until all 2 foot oscillators are bang on at both A1 and A5.... from this point it gets much easier as the trimpots aren't so touchy .....the next trimpot is the 4 foot tune offset......counter clockwise sharpens....setfor all then .....the next trimpot is the 8 foot tune offset....counter clockwise sharpens....set for all then almost done champ .....the next trimpot is the 16 foot tune offset.......counter clockwise sharpens.....you will find the trimpots are much easier in this range.... Close her all up and play with the mix in the middle....listening for beating......repeat procedure if neccessary... -----Original message----- From: Scott Metzger scottmetzger3d@hotmail.com Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2008 10:58:38 -0600 To: yamahacs80@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [yamahacs80] Tuning Thanks RJ.So when I first tune step 2, do I tune it across the board for all voices first, or do I just start on one voice and tune from 2 to 16?-ScottTo: yamahacs80@yahoogroups.comFrom: r_j_d_2.phila@...: Fri, 19 Sep 2008 04:12:03 -0700Subject: Re: [yamahacs80] Tuning figure i'd save david a little breath.... -voice 8-correct. 1 note sustained +7 notes triggered=voice 8 -trim pots, from top: -little blue one-scale -2 -4 -8 -16 YOU MUST DO THIS FROM THE TOP DOWN!!! 2' offsets all other octaves. ( have forgotten this several times!) STABILITY: maybe want to redo the thermal grease on the VCO chips? other than that, i would guess you might not be getting consistent voltage supplied to the cards, unless it is the same voice always falling out of tune. good luck. --- On Fri, 9/19/08, Scott Metzger wrote: From: Scott Metzger Subject: [yamahacs80] Tuning To: yamahacs80@yahoogroups.com Date: Friday, September 19, 2008, 2:45 AM Hey David. So my CS80 is out of tune again. It isn't dramaticly off, but it is off a good +12, or +25 centson some voices. Do you know why this is happening? How do we get stable tunning so I don't have to open this thing up every week? Also, where on the card do I jiggle to see which Voice I am on? Thanks -Scott Also, to find Voice 8, I need to hold a note down, then press A untill I find Voice 8 correct? Also, what is the first POT on the voice cards? I think I might have turned those first pots by mistake. :( [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
