Patchbay is a three-person studio in Rotterdam devoted to keeping vintage synthesizers making the sounds they were built to make. We repair, service and restore analog instruments from the late 1960s onward, from familiar Moogs and ARPs to oddities with no service manual. Every synth that comes through the door is treated as a working instrument rather than a museum piece. We trace faults, rebuild power supplies, refresh capacitors, clean keybeds and calibrate oscillators, always with an eye on reliability and the character that made the machine worth saving. We document what we do, explain the options clearly and never replace more than necessary. Whether you need one dead voice brought back or a full restoration, we work carefully, at the bench and in conversation with you. Old synths belong on records and stages, and our job is to keep them there.

Patchbay is a three-person workshop in Rotterdam, tucked into an old warehouse where the light is good and the benches are always covered in parts. We repair vintage synthesizers — the analog giants, the odd Japanese curiosities, the machines that were built to last and mostly have. Between us we've spent decades tracing dead oscillators, recapping power supplies, and coaxing behaviour back out of circuits that other people had given up on. We work slowly, because these instruments reward patience, and we test everything by ear as well as by meter. Some arrive barely alive; some just need one stubborn voice brought back into tune. Either way, we treat each one as a piece of history worth keeping in use. If it makes sound, we'd like to hear it again.
