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 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..

After working with an Arp 2600 in high school during the early
70's
and then building my own version using a PAiA 2700, I'd taken a long
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:
