"Here is a restored Jupiter 8, all the power supply capacitors have been replaced as well as the transformer with one manufactured by ROSEN SOUND. The CPU circuit has been replaced with a model manufactured by SYNTHWORKS and the control switch for the LFO/Modulation knob has also been replaced. The controls are in good condition and operate smoothly, and the dust covers have been replaced. There is a modification on the back that I personally never use, but from what I can see it is connected with each of the controller boards to the VCO LFO MOD section and the VCA MOD section. I have seen other JP8s with the same modification in the past but I never asked what it was for exactly. Of course for a 40 year old synthesizer there is some cosmetic wear, but it is possible to replace the side panels with new ones and the heat sink as well. The front panel was damaged at the hatch and rear, but can be dented quite easily and repainted."
