I’m doing another run of the ARP Quadra MIDI adapters and the ARP Quadra Membrane panels, both of which products were previously sold out. ARP Quadra MIDI is available for pre-order (at a discount!) at the link below. Contact me to be notified when the Membrane panel is available to order.
This Jupiter 6 came in with 2 dead voices, making it more like a Jupiter 4 than a Jupiter 6. So in this video we troubleshoot and repair the 2 dead voices.

Got word that the Canadian postal strike was ending, so added Canada back to the list of countries we ship to. We are advised that there is some backlog on shipments to Canada, so delivery may take longer than usual. So please only order to Canadian addresses if you can be patient.
Hey buddy, the US Postal Service isn’t accepting packages to Canada right now because of the Canadian postal strike. So I’ve removed Canada from the list of countries I ship to until postal service resumes. I might not be informed when it resumes, or I might forget to add Canada back onto the list, so please feel free to contact me if you have any problems ordering after your postal strike is resolved. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
