Hi. So I've contacted my local synth tech and he said he'd look into doing it for me but asked if I had any links for what to do. Does anyone have any links or schematics for adding CV for pitch? Cheers.

It is capable of producing up to 6 CVs for polyphony. I currently use it to control my MS20 and CS15. It converts MIDI messages into CV via my DC coupled audio interface (modified Presonus Firepod). There is also a dedicated euro rack module available for it.On Fri, Jun 13, 2014 at 12:06 PM, Florian Anwander fanwander@... [yamahacs80] <yamahacs80@yahoogroups.com> wrote:

technical problem.
But the real question is: what will be the source that will control this
modified Synth?
The CS-Series is V/Hz not V/Oct. So you';d need an external
voltage-source, which produces a V/Hz characteristics. Beside Yamahas
own monophonic CS-Synths and Korgs MS10, MS20, and SQ10 I wouldn't know
any keyboard, that is suitable.
Some polyphonic MIDI interfaces like the big Kenton, Doepfer MCV24 or
the EES CV7 can produce V/Hz voltages - but in this case you will be in
the range of a $500-device (minimum).
So: an integrated MIDI-interface makes most sense.
