Hi Chitsujo,
Maybe this could be of help to you: there's an article on sospubs:
The following passage is interesting:
Crumar made the Trilogy not 12x paraphonic, but 6x paraphonic. This means that all the Cs and all the F#s share a contour generator, filter and amplifier, as do all the C#s and Gs, all the Ds and G#s... and so on up the octave
So, now you might figure out which of the filters or ampilfiers aren't working properly.

Finding spare parts for a Trilogy can be hard; maybe http://www.vintageplanet.nl has the parts you need.
Good luck,
Ridzert

Hi, I'm new to this group and was hoping I could get some advice from
the community:
I have a rather beat-up Trilogy that I've been tinkering around with.
It has some problems that I've been working around, but I was hoping
someone here would know if there's anything I can do to fix it
without paying more than I spent for the machine (which was very
little).
The string sound works beautifully, but it has problems with the
organ and synth sounds.
With the organ sound, it makes a popping noise at the beggining and
end of each key press. The sounds are fine so long as you always
have one note going, so I can work around that problem to some extent.
My main problem is with the synth sound. The volumes on some keys are
significantly lower than the rest, most notably the D, E, and A flat.
I'm crossing my fingers that different volumes for each note is some
adjustment I could quickly change inside the machine, but I rather
suspect that getting this corrected will be costly.
Thanks for any help or advice!
