Oops.

I called the 1-800-338-4734 number and got some software person.  For
dealers only!  They wanted to know the name of the person from whom 
I got the number (so they can cut their head off)!

Apparently there are no toll free numbers for a person who can compare
products.  The numbers in .0 are for literature once you know what you're
looking for.  

(By the way, I entered .0 twice.  The first time the numbers fresh this
morning turned out to be wrong when called.  The standard phone whistles
followed by "has been changed.  The new number is..." message.  Yamaha
needs to get its act together!)

5.21One number for YamahaDFLAT::DICKSONPlan data flows firstThu Feb 09 1989 19:5910
A review contained this number for Yamaha Pro Audio: (714) 522-9011.
When I called it it turned out to be a generic Yamaha number, and a recorded
voice told me to press "1" for pianos, "2" for digital instruments, etc.
After I pressed a digit the voice gave me another menu, and I finally got
down to "Pro Audio", and it connected me.  Then 3 forwardings thru secretaries
finally got me to the literature-sending people.  It looks like that one
number can get you anywhere.  I don't know if there is an 800 equivalant.

(Actually, what I finally got was an answering machine.  I left my name and
number and they called me back within 30 minutes.)
5.22More info on YamahaNORGE::CHADFri Feb 10 1989 11:564
I called the number for Y* in .10 directly (800) and got the DMI folks
who helped me right away.  That was back in December.

5.40Another List, From USENETAQUA::ROSTPeavey=Mississippi MarshallMon Jul 30 1990 13:12426
    From USENET, another list of addresses/phones.  Some look like they are
    out of date.  This is pretty long, so...
    
    
From: rsk@oldfield.cs.colostate.edu (Rich Kulawiec)
Subject: Synth/keyboard/audio address/phone list
Date: 28 Jul 90 15:33:14 GMT
 
This is just an address/phone list for various gear manufacturers.
For each entry, I've provided the address/phone along with a few
comments.  You'll notice that some of the entries are probably out
of date; well, additions and corrections VIA MAIL ONLY are quite
welcome; my intent is to bring this list up-to-date and then to
post it on a regular basis.
 
Cheers,
Rich

5.52Need a ribbon controller.PROSE::DIORIOA beer's eye viewMon Jul 15 1991 13:377
I'm looking for a source to buy a ribbon controller from. I want to hack up 
my own ribbon controller and connect it to one of my synths. I seem to remember
that the Polymoog used a ribbon controller. So a place that sells parts for 
old Moogs might be a good place to start. Can anyone think of any other old
synths that used ribbon controllers? 

Mike D

The Yamaha CS synths used to have ribbons the whole length of the keyboard
(at least the 80 and 50 did).

While I don't have the address at hand, I thought it would be worth updating the
phone number for J. L. Cooper:

(310)306-4131

BTW- they're now in Marina del Rey, not West L.A.

Dr. T's has apparently moved  -  I got my guarentee reg-
istration card back from the post office as undeliver-
able. The last address was on Boylston St. in Chestnut
Hill MA.

Admittedly, I bought my sequencer (KCS Level II) over 
two years ago and just got around to registering it 
with them.

If anyone has their new address & tel. no. I would app-
reciate getting it.

Thanks in advance,


Scott
