Did you already have the IC00153? Best regards

I was wondering who is interested in new contact sets for Yamaha CS80. Together with a friend who has a high quality Markforged 3d printer I will produce a one to one copy.
As soon as it is finished and at least as good as the original I will place some pictures.
Please let me know if you also need new contacts for the yamaha cs80 because I can reduce the price by larger numbers
thanks

Hi Scott,
Pardon the disappearance-act, life took over for a spell there. No audible difference when enabling the EXP WAH button, it seems like I have to do some reading online on how to properly diagnose the synth, and find someone locally to help.
Thanks again for all the input!

Re: CS-80: What's the normal stereo output balance between L-R channels?
How about if you push and latch the gray EXP WAH button on the left lower control panel, does it still do nothing?
I would say you found the part of the circuit with the issue. When you plug in the FC7 into the Foot Controller jack, it should automatically take over control of the overall volume.

Hi Scott,
?
I bought an FC7 pedal, but it doesn't seem to work with my CS-80 (or there's another issue somewhere), there's no discernible difference when pedaling.
I did try checking if the relative offset is the same when rotating the volume main, and the answer is yes. I guess this means the PRA-board is the issue?
Reboot Paris, I did check the service manual, but didn't find any mention of this issue. But perhaps the next step is to find someone locally to help me check and calibrate the values indicated in the manual. Or learn to do it myself (won't experiment on the CS-80 though, she's too valuable and fragile).

Re: Early CS-80 - Pitch Shift Issue
Here is a link to the missing CS-80 bulletins.??

Re: Early CS-80 - Pitch Shift Issue
Great info! My CS80, serial number 1449, had this problem. I had it serviced by my tech in 2006 who had a hard time finding the cause. He didn't have access to SB 096 so he had to find out himself, and he did. I bought this CS80 from a professional musician and I never understood how he could even have played on this instrument. This bug made it impossible to play on it, imo. My other CS80, SN 1589, seems to have had the same problem according the SB, but I guess someone has taken action in the past.

? Maybe I can hook up my CS80 to my Kronos and we can talk through this on the phone this weekend.? What time zone are you in??? Hi Stan, I was the one asking about the midi. Here is my original plea for help: I recently had a Kenton Midi Kit installed into a CS80. It looks like something was not done correctly during the installation, since the mod and pitch wheels are not working. I have tried 2 different controllers; notes are being triggered, aftertouch and program changes work, but the wheels do not... It does not matter if the toggle switch is up or down.. I have tried to reset the midi mode, which returns everything to the default settings, but no success. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
Also I am not sure if the red button is working properly. I spoke with Harry at Kenton, and when you enter midi program mode (by hitting the button 2 times in succession) there should be no sound being triggered in the CS80 when you play different keys on the controller, to assign different midi settings. But when I am in the midi program mode, the CS is still playing notes from the controller. The transpose mode does seem to be working. Harry was not 100% sure there should be no sound, since he did not have a CS80 in the shop. Can anyone tell me if I should here notes triggered from the CS while its in midi program mode?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Best regards,
Alex I appreciate hearing all this information. ?My CS-80 needs some work? Mike Borish does it for me.? Both the square and sign wave are on all the time on the top channel.? I also have a voice that is intermittent.? I can still enjoy playing it.? I was going to check my MIDI for a member and lost his name.? If you are still in the group I can check it this weekend.?? I live in Chicago.? Take Care all.? Thank you for the input! Joachim Milson, I have a voltmeter and can do basic diagnostics, but as reboot paris points out, I might be better to leave it to a professional. Though my tech lives in England and I'm in Norway (and I'm not dealing with international shipping again for such a small issue), so would likely have to do the work myself with his guidance. Will think about whether or not I'm the right guy for the job and if not, how I can prepare/train to get better.
Mert, thank you for the response. I think I did get your reply, about trying to toggle the high/low output switch on the back? I tried that, no success so far. Would using deoxit perhaps be of help? Thank a lot for the replies so far,

Re: my afternoon with dave eggar
Just came across this lil' tidbit while searching the forum on boring information about expression pedals a good eleven years after the fact and damn, glad you shared that! Good reminder that the music-making itself is why we all strived (and maybe paid top dollar) to get our hands on one of these beasts. Best, Mathias
