Thanks, Kyle, I'll keep that all in mind. I have this question posted on half a dozen forums, including Muffwiggler, VintageSynth.com, moogmusic.com, and the CS-80 Facebook page, and am baffled by the lack of response for such a simple question. Perhaps there's a reason these machines are kept from artists dedicated to the craft of creating music, only to waste away in the hands of hip hop studios and wealthy collectors. Given my financial situation, I am getting tempted to sell my CS-80 at this point if this is the kind of support I can expect in the long haul. C'est la vie, I suppose…guess I'll just muse on something the late, great Kevin Lightner said in one of his final posts: "My suggestion to someone who wants a vintage synth fixed is to have a lot of patience, research everything and have no expectations whatsoever."
