Hello and greetings from Switzerland, i‘m new here
My Voyager Old School (SN°272) is causing problems
The top key has contact problems. Cleaning has helped and it works as long as the keyboard is not installed.
I know that in Old School another keyboard was installed in addition to the Fatar keyboard. But I don’t know which one at the moment and in my synth…
I am looking for replacement contact rubber bands for this one and/or the Fatar keyboard
Can anyone help?
Welcome to the Moog Forum, Cello!
Maybe ask syntaur.com. They got contact rubbers in three length online:

They also got a tech forum:

Or even better: ask Rudi Linhard in Germany. He is also in this forum as “RL”.

You can see if your Voyager have the Fatar or the “noname” Chinese keyboard by counting the screws on the bottom plate. Fatar keyboards have 10 screws and the other one 8.
On my Voyager OS #350 (that I sold about three years ago) I had the Chinese keyboard for about 10 years, until it showed some problems with triggering. Fortunately I got help with Linntronics in Germany to change keyboard to a Fatar. It also involved a change of the bottom plate, which might be hard to get.
