RE: [AnalogueSynthesisers] Servicing an Arp Odyssey

I found black slider caps that work at a surplus store here in Orlando, Skycraft. They’re slightly thicker than the originals, but you really can’t tell. They’re also about an inch long, but I just snipped off the appropriate length with scissors. They fit perfectly and are undetectable in use. Best of all, they were 10 cents.

Nice one mate.

I've got two oddys (A black face &  white face, and I would never part with them)

Does anyone know where to get slider caps for them? one of my Oddys is looking rather scrappy with some missing.

If only chips for brains (on Ebay) would start making them..

break from analog synths. But recently I found an Arp Odyssey in good
condition on ebay.

Upon arrival it was apparent that, while well-cared for, this Odyssey
could use a good cleaning, and the noise generator was broken. I also
wnated to improve the cutoff frequency of the 4075 filter.

I've set up a web page to document the process with some nice, clear
photos, and to provide some useful references:

Here's a manufacturer's link to the ones I found, in case anyone wants a box of 5000. The model VC-125-8 is the one that stretches to fit perfectly. ...

I used plastic caps from ELFA on my mk II - it's a tight fit, and they don't have all the funky colours, but I'm pleased. Catalog number 35-331-55 and...
