schematics for the Trilogy

schematics for the Trilogy

Hi this guy is suggesting that he has the schematics for the Trilogy.

I know the sounds do not have big Moog sound that one expects upon 
seeing such a big layout. The organ can be tweaked to sound pretty 
good if you layer it with a bassy-toned synth sound and mix them to 
the right levels. Keep some of the highs out of the on-board organ by 
lowering the upper pipes slider.

The strings have a very 70's imitation sound that works great for 
Studio 54 disco era stuff and Isley Bros tunes.If you were looking 
for current heavy electronic sounds or Emerson, Lake and Palmer- I 
agree that this unit is not the one! It has served me well for a 
keyboard that played multiple sounds at the same time that allowed 
one of those sounds to be changed while the others were still being 
heard. It is thinner sounding because of its design. It is not really 
a true synth in the classic sense. It uses a oscillator that is 
divided down to obtain the lower pitches. This is the same tchnology 
that was used in some more corny sounding old home organs that had 
the "cheesy Drums" on board. This was a must to keep the cost down 
while providing all of the options that it has. Its strings were 
considered Pretty OK at the time of its release and their exact sound 
is very hard to find in units of today. One user thinks you should 
just sample the sounds on it and not worry about actally having it or 
playing it for real. I have the schematics for the unit and have only 
had to fix mine once in 17 years while taking it on well over a 
hundred dates in three states under some tough conditions. I didn't 
buy a road case but only the carry bag that came with it and it has 
still held up. Hope all of this is of some use to you. Good luck and 
I believe you will be able to sell it if you like. In fact, get a 
hold of me if you want to. I could use a spare!
