EG and VCF functions seem to work properly, but it is 1 octave lower.
i assumed i would just tune it up an octave, but then realized that
those metal trimmers, i believe, are not "infinite" pots, i.e. i dont
think i will be able to tune them up. is there something else i should
be doing? a jumper/mod on the board? thanks alot for your help.

There are some resistors that are different on the CS50/60 version of
the M-Board.  Look at the tables on the right side of the schematic
here:

Assuming you have the M-Board you replaced, grab the resistors from it.
