Using Split Mode 4-2 or 2-4, the two voices non-working are in the zone of the 4 voices.
One of these days I'll go to the LEMI repair center in Torino, Italy, because I can't repair it by myself.
Anyone has installed the Europa upgrade on the Jupiter 6? Does it works well?

thanks, this evening I'll try to use thr JP6 in split mode (the only thing I didn't tried)
Unfortunately the JP6-Europa mailing list doesn't work.

Agreed! It makes the Multitrak look a bit more like its sibling the
SixTrak.

There are a couple things which could be coming into play here. The Jupiter
6 can somewhat be thought of a 2+4 voice board, in that one of the voice
boards handles 2 of the voices, and another one handles the other 4. The
2/4 division also comes into play depending on panel mode (e.g., splits).

The first thing to try to rule in/rule out is whether perhaps the keyboard
is just in '4-voice' mode and/or if there's something wrong with the 2-voice
voice card (in general).

If not already installed, the Europa upgrade for the JP-6 is very
attractive:

(If nothing else, the JP-6 mailing list noted on that page may be a very
good source of information/support to help diagnose the voice problem).

Good luck with the Polaris velocity issue.

I have one installed, and I've been very happy with it.  Even without taking 
into account the new features, the code is more robust than the original 
Roland version.
