CS80 1, 2 & 3 & a KORG MS20 MS10 Frankensynth
video upload by noddyspuncture
"CS80 #2 just lost a voice yesterday. I 'scoped the triggering section on the KAS board and as I suspected, one of the associated 4050 IC's has gone bad. These IC's are original - nearly 50 years old - so they could do with changing anyway. The last problem I had on CS80 #2 was also a 4000 series IC on one of the the aftertouch boards. One went bad and I then changed them all... so I might as well change both of these while I'm at it. So, I thought I'd show you CS80's 1&3 as well while I had the camera out..."

"The Tonestar 8106 is a compact Eurorack synth voice based on a combination of the Juno 106 circuits and the ARP 2600. The voice sounds fantastic and has a single VCO, LFO, filter, VCA, and two envelopes. There is a nice feedback control that allows the output to be routed back through itself for some fun unpredictable results. The sections of this synth voice are normaled together but can be interrupted and used independently. This module is in great working condition but has some rack rash. This is the grey version."

"Model 101 Synthesizer: analog mono-synth with CV / Gate in and out, and external audio input. The keyboard works as it should. No double triggering. Some noise on one or two of the faders when they move, but I have never seen this as a big problem. 230V.
Model 102 Expander: Analog synth module with CV / Gate, almost identical to Model 101, but this one also has Sample & Hold. This unit is in very good condition and little used. Very rare. 230V.
Model 103 Mixing Amplifier. 4-channel mixer with built-in spring reverb and connection for one external effect such as a delay. This device does not look very pretty, but it has been serviced by a former Roland technician in Japan, and works 100% as it should. 100V.
Model 104 Sequencer. Analog 2x12 step sequencer with 2xCV / Gate out. This one looked mint when I got it from Japan a year ago. 100V."

"You are looking at a vintage ARP Odyssey REVII Synthesizer, Serial number 2813, manufactured in the late 1970's. If you are looking at this listing you know what it is, this is a real ARP Odyssey, NOT the modern Korg remake.
"This specific unit is in excellent shape and has very recently been professionally serviced, which includes new key bushings, calibration/tuning, slider lubrication & cleaning (this is VERY important with these units), PSU updating, capacitor replacement, as well as many other tweaks.
This specific unit plays beautifully and sounds absolutely magical. Cosmetically there are a few minor blemishes that I will describe as best as I can so there are no surprises:
(1) There are some very small white scuffs on the edge meeting the front and rear chassis.
(2) There are two missing screws on the left & right side: this was done on purpose; the threads had worn out so the screw-holes were repositioned to the outer chassis
(3) The jacks on the rear have some minor corrosion but the electrical contact has been tested and gives good continuity.
I have tested this unit over and over and it is rock solid. However given the age of the unit and overall sensitivity of older electronics I am unable to guarantee that at some point in time it may require re-servicing.
I will also include the RCA Cable + Adapter required to use the 'High' output in the rear of the unit. It is HIGHLY recommended that you use this output, it gives a much stronger & cleaner signal"
