Re: [yamahacs80] Name that mod

2010-12-29 by Fredrik Segerfalk

Holiday is fine! Soon back to restoring a cs-60 and replacing all 
trimmers with new... phew!

Sounds like it could be an external cv input  for the vcf cutoff, plain 
and simple.  I had a a four voice which had a ribbon cable installed 
with a d-sub for external cv/gate.
