Holiday

Due to a holiday there will only be limited support between the 14th of December and the 14th of January. Please check the forum for answers and ask questions there. Send shipping related questions to shipping2015@tubbutec.de.

Shipping will commence normally. Orders arriving in the week between Christmas and New Year will be shipped in early 2016.

VAT prices 2016
Depending on where you are ordering from, we may need to add VAT to our prices in 2016.

This does not concern you if you
a) Live outside the EU
b) Live inside the EU and have a valid VAT identification number
In these cases prices will remain the same.

For private people inside the EU, 19% VAT will be added. We are bound by law to do so, but believe even including VAT out prices are still fair with a very good price-performance ratio. Apologies to everyone whom this concerns.

Christmas shipping times

Please note: due to Christmas, shipping times might be longer then usual in December. In extreme cases orders might take up to two weeks to arrive.

Attack magazine voted Tubbutec Polysex on of the ten best synth mods.

At a glance, you’d be forgiven for missing the fact that a Korg Polysix had been upgraded with Tubbutec’s Polysex mod. The additional controls are so neatly added to the front panel that – as long as you can find three original knobs to slip onto the new rotary pots – you have to look closely to realise it’s a custom addition.

Berliner Tobias Münzer produces a small range of MIDI-based mod kits for synths including Korg’s Poly61 and Mono/Poly and Roland’s Juno-6 and -60, but his analogue upgrade for the PolySix is our favourite. Released in 1981, around the same time as the Juno-6, the Polysix was a much more affordable synth than anything Korg had made before. With a single VCO per voice, each with sub-oscillator, great filters and built-in modulation effects, the Polysix is good in standard form, but Tubbutec’s simple but effective Polysex mods lift it to new heights. The pitch mod feature routes the envelope generator to oscillator pitch, while the voice spread feature detunes the oscillators for thick unison sounds or wobbly polyphonic patches.

UDPDATE:

The DCB cover panel for the Juno-66 was designed to fit the Juno-60 here in the Tubbutec headquarters.
As it turns out there are however either two different versions of the Juno-60 (with respect to the panel mounting).
While our Juno-60 uses self-cutting screws to mount the panel, one customer reported that his Juno-60 uses machine screws.
There are multiple possibilities to use our panel – which was designed to work with self-cutting screws.

1. Cut a thread. This is by far the cleanest solution. By using a die for M3 screws, cut a thread in the two holes on the sides of the Tubbutec DCB panel. The holes are large enough and no additional drilling is needed beforehand.
2. instead of cutting a thread use a 3.5 mm drill to enlarge the two holes, then use the original Juno-60 screws in combination with 3mm nuts to mount the panel.
3. Use black self-cutting screws instead of the original ones.

We apologize for the inconvenience. From now on the panels will ship with a thread so it will work with both, machine screws and self-cutting ones.
