Thought I would update the list on my CS-80 work thats been going on. I had help in fixing some of these problems which is great since some of them to me were stumpers. Here is what has been done: Power supply rebuilt Ring Modulator envelope fixed (bad IG00159) Output hi/low switch rebuilt constant pitch/loss of pitch controls (bad trace on the BA board) Funky 3 would not sound (bad transistor on the BA board) Some things that are left to do and a bit of a mystery: No aftertouch. (The aftertouch worked when I got the synth but now I have none on any key on either channel which makes me think its something global. The voltages seem to be fine on the TKS board....) No voice 3 on channel 2, but ONLY in panel mode???? This seems like a weird issue... And last will be a full calibration.
