About

Write the opening of the About us page for Patchbay, a three-person studio in Rotterdam that repairs vintage synthesizers. About 150 words.

Patchbay is a small, three‑person studio in Rotterdam dedicated to bringing vintage synthesizers back to life. Founded by longtime gear enthusiasts, we combine hands‑on craftsmanship with a deep knowledge of analog electronics to restore, calibrate, and enhance instruments that have been out of tune for decades. Our workshop is a place where old circuitry meets modern precision, and where each repair is treated as a chance to learn something new about the machines we love. We work closely with musicians, collectors, and repair shops across the Netherlands, offering personalized service that respects the history and character of each instrument. By preserving the sonic quirks of classic synths, we help artists keep the sounds that shaped electronic music alive today. At Patchbay, the goal is simple: keep the past humming and give it a future. Our three‑person team blends electronics expertise, music production insight, and meticulous restoration craft.

Patchbay is a small repair studio in Rotterdam dedicated to keeping vintage synthesizers alive. We are three people — a technician, a historian, and a musician — who believe that the instruments built in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s still have decades of sound left in them, if someone is willing to care for them properly.

We work on everything from early Moogs and Arps to Roland Junos and Oberheim OB-series, handling everything from dead power supplies and leaky batteries to full recaps and voice board restoration. Our workshop is small by design. We take on a limited number of instruments at a time, which means every synth that comes through our door gets our full attention.

Most of our clients are working musicians, collectors, and small studios across Europe, but we also welcome instruments with stories we'd love to hear. If you have a piece of synth history that needs care, we'd be glad to talk.
