We’re sorry to announce that we have to pause accepting the bigger old digital*  synth beasts for service. Making ends meet demands a smaller parts stock and faster turn-around, so we have to keep things simple for the foreseeable future.

As a rule of thumb, this means anything old, big and heavy with presets is out. Some models with hard to source parts are out. Most things all analogue are still in.

Examples (Not exhaustive or complete):

Out:

• Anything Casio, Ensoniq or Kurzweil
• Roland Jupiter 8
• Roland Jupiter 6
• Roland JX anything
• Sequential Circuits Prophet 600
• Sequential Circuits Six-trak
• Yamaha CS80
• Yamaha CS60
• Yamaha CS40M

In – with parts in stock:

• ARP 2600
• ARP Odyssey
• Korg Delta
• Korg MS20
• Korg MS10
• Moog Minimoog
• Moog Prodigy
• Novation Nova
• Novation Supernova
• Roland SH101
• Roland Juno 6, 60, 106

Always get in touch prior to coming by, to see if we can help you with your particular instrument. In extraordinary cases, we will still try to help out with said monsters.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

* Digital as in anything with memory for presets

We’re overbooked and way too keen to get some sun, so we’re taking no more service orders until mid-August. Enjoy the Holidays. Cheers!

Our new repair shop at Grünerløkka is now open. Manned 10 – 16:00 every work day, but call in advance in case we’re out doing field work.

At least one tape delay comes by our repair shop every week for some tlc, and we currently stock WEM, Korg, Roland, Dynacord and Klemt tapes. Full motor rebuilds no problem.

We’ve joined up with the Nihilist Assault Group and mEMetic ASsembly to revitalize the long dormant NAG Records. New releases are planned for 2018, and we’ll make sure to add to the sonics involved. Details to come. Cheers.

We are moving our office from Karlstadgate to a new location at Gøteborggata 23 during December 2017. We’ll be open for business again from the 2nd week in 2018. See you there.

In december, we’re moving to a new location. We will not be accepting orders until we’ve reinstalled ourselves in a suitable location.

Studio services in Studio Sibir are closed as of Nov 3rd 2017. We still offer the same services through Earport Studios (Fornebu) and Dropsfabrikken (Grünerløkka).

Our headquarters since 2003 is being torn down to make room for apartments.

We therefore urgently  need a new location for the Oslo repair shop. Must be able to house

• 1 – 2 men working full time
• 10 – 15 amplifiers
• 10 – 20 synthesizers
• a couple of visitors at the time

It must be possible to test amplifiers and monitors at full volume, and ventilation is essential. We will of course supply necessary sound proofing. Possibilities for studio work is a big bonus. Access to a recording area would be great.

We keep our floor and finances tidy, and promise there will be no bikes, mustache wax or micro brew.

We are now an official service shop for Thermionic Culture Ltd products, thanks to High Voltage Audio AS.

We offer repair and maintenance with certified parts, valve testing and calibration. We also offer brand new units, fresh from the factory.

We’re in the process of setting up a web shop and show room for our new expansion in the audio pro community – As dealer and distributor of an exclusive selection of our favorite brands.

We’ll keep the suspense going for a little while yet, before we announce it properly, meaning vague hints and tweets for those who haven’t already visited our offices. Stay tuned.
