CS80 stuff

CS80 stuff

2007-11-17 by Mo Rosati

Hi Rob,

I have uploaded the yamaha ic giude book to:

http://manuals.fdiskc.com

This is part of the synth manual archive project we started in the
summer

There is a small chance that I might have the ig00153 you're looking for
but I have to do some digging....

Thanks
Mo

REALLY? that's interesting. thanks for that tidbit, it helps. i would
love it if kent could weigh in on this, he probably knows exactly what
im up against. i know for sure that what ive got is: 
-key triggers 
-HPF and LPF work 
-VCA changes level, so i believe VCA chip is good 
 
here's another wierd thing-if i run a scale and separate release and
depression of every key, the bad voice shows itself as silence. HOWEVER,
if i run a scale WITHOUT separating attack and release of different
notes(with legato? dunno the term), or cycle through chords note by
note(held notes stay held while new notes are triggered), i am getting a
wierd thing SOMETIMES:  i wont get a "silent" note, but i WILL get a
note that ONLY has its attack-NO sustain. just a "blip", if you will.
but it is a note, it is triggered, it just doesnt sustain like the rest
of the notes.  
 
the problem is that there is no way for me to confirm this phenomenon is
coming from the normally silent voice. but i suspect that those
conditions are causing the bad voice to behave as such. 
 
man, its hard finding VCO chips! ive scoured the net, no such luck... 
 
anybody have one to sell? i'll pay, i need it!

mo-thanks a ton! PLEASE let me know if you do have an IG00153, that would be amazing, and save me from buying a cheap CS mono and selling it off for parts!(hate to waste perfectly good instruments!).

Yamaha IC guide - Re: CS80 stuff

2007-11-20 by David Rogoff

Mo,

thanks so much - this is great!  It's especially handy having the table
that shows which chips were used in which keyboards (also could be
called the cannibalism guide...).

 David

Re: [yamahacs80] Yamaha IC guide - Re: CS80 stuff

Hi,

No problem, glad to help... 
Although the REAL credit must go to Loscha & Matrixsynth for providing
the scan in the first place. 
I'm just helping with the distribution, along with many other synth
manuals.
Keep in mind, this version of the doc only included gear released in
1979 & older, so I'm really hoping someone has a newer version kickin'
around somewhere.... it is an incredibly useful doc for repair /
cannibalism guide :)

www.loscha.com
maxtrixsynth.com

Attention: Rob

I spent a few hours yesterday going through my ' parts ' synth but
nothing like a iG00153 at the moment, sorry... the search continues.

Thanks,
Mo
