Yamaha CS80

The Kenton midi kit as it stands at the moment once fitted reduces 
the polyponic glide and glissendo to mono by controller or on the 80 
herself. This is not a problem for everyone for sure, but it has 
been for quite a few clients who use this feature alot in there 
music. This seems to be the case with the new release of the kit 
rather than the old version.

But in regards of having midi out with aftertouch on a 80.  Well it 
is possible and not to expencive but quite hard to fit, useing a old 
j-wire midi controller fitted over the top of the 80's keyboard and 
cutting into the TSB 1 and 2 boards for the aftertouch. It works 
very well but is a bit messy to say the least. Cold Plays 80 had 
this very same kind of idea fitted to it but they had me remove it 
when KSR80 upgrade was done to it. But it worked and it worked well 
while it was in it.

When my 80 is finished I will put some photo's up of her with just 
this very kind of midi solution  in it  :)
