Yamaha CS80

Hi guys,

I seem to remember, maybe it was Crow, saying that there were CS80
compatible 'useful' parts inside your basic Yammy home organs. Could
some one please expand on this please. I have the option of stashing
some Yammy organ bits but only want to do so if it really is worthwhile.

Any info greatly appreciated.

Cheers.
TOM

No answers to this question of mine yet, just incase you missed it
first time...

Many of the early/mid 1970s to early 1980 Electone organs used parts
that the Electone team also used in the CS line. Many of the C-, D- and
E-series organs from that time will have chips, controls, slider caps, and
so on. The CSY-1 and CSY-2 have SY-1 and SY-2 mono synthesizers in them,
so they should be preserved. (Although, I would gut the CSY-1/2 of the
organ electronics and do something like a string machine with the lower
manual. ;)

The C-40, C-60, C-80..on up to the E-70 tend to have useful parts.
