Re: [yamahacs80] Aftertouch problem

Hi Fernando,

It is likely to be the TSB boards. When you press a key the signal  
from the FSR on the key is buffered by the TSB circuit. I'd say that  
some of the 4051 on TSB boards are not working properly and not  
outputting the signal to the multiplexing circuits on the TKC.

It would be wise to completely overhaul the TSB boards, replacing all  
capacitors and CMOS with newer ones. I use Panasonic FC electrolytics,  
WIMA polypropylene and TI CMOS with Mil-Max gold sockets. If you need  
the digikey PN#s send me an email and i'll mail you a spreadsheet.
