PRE ORDER - Oberheim Matrix 6R_FULL MEMBRANE REPLACEMENT PANEL_OLD SCHOOL STYLE
JUNE 2023 - Original Membrane looks good to go ,once 3 more orders, but this version is not looking like it will go ahead unless more orders +10 are coming soon.
THIS IS A PRE ORDER LISTING AND NOT YET IN STOCK
DESIGN PROTOTYPE AT MOMENT
We think this would be ULTRA COOL. The original style will follow, so please don’t worry, you can be brave !
This will fully replace your front panel and you can always have your rack ears in red too ! ( not included )
We require 30 orders for this first batch before production starts and have added 35 ‘ virtual ‘ panels. If order bank is not fulfilled, or if you do not want to wait, you will have a FULL refund.
This is near finalising, so we were excited to share it with you. This will be followed by Matrix 6 authentic original ( see our DX7, KX88, JX8P, then an Old school panel for the Matrix 6, please see other listings. Also, in preparation are the Oberheim BIG GUNS, the Matrix 12 and Xpander, both authentic original ( shall we do an Old School of these too ? )
These are not OEM panels and we claim no affiliation with the manufacturer. Please note, this is a custom ‘look’, please see original for an authentic replica like DX7, JX8P, KX88 panels etc.
Easy to fit, all precision cut and comes with self adhesive backing and instructions. We recommend you service your buttons before fitting so they are optimum for your NEW panel.
There is a lot of hard work involved and masses of passion to create high end quality products.

Note : Even after receiving your panel, before peeling and fitting it, you can return it for a FULL refund.
Note : This new panel is much more durable that original and slightly thicker. If you try it out over your old panel before fitting, you’ll see everything will work ok, but there will be a difference in the flexibility and travel naturally. So, as you are fitting a new panel to an old synth, there may be several reasons why the buttons ‘still work’ but don’t actually click the same way. For instance, every circuit board will have different degrees of flex, wrong screws in it from past owners, possible different switches, board thickness changed throughout production etc. Please don’t despair - If this happens, simply add nylon washers to the board to step the buttons a few microns away ( 0.2mm - 0.3 mm etc ). We have had many cases when this is just not needed and some do.
Fitting is easy :
You need insulation tape ( or any tape that’s not too sticky ) this is to hold new panel in place while peeling backing.
Hair Dryer to loosen the old panel and glue residue.
Sticky stuff / Glue remover ( when get going, a ball of residue is great ).
A scraper, soft edged so not to scratch the metalwork.
Damp cloth to wipe panel once stripped. MAKE SURE NO bits left. Also the damp cloth can leave moisture that can help the new panel move slightly if required.
Cup of coffee
Aprox 2 hrs - to do a thorough clean, neat factory look job. Please see also fitting of DX7 panel on Youtube for similar guidance.
Thank you.

Thank you
