try to google for it. Usually these tapes are just a few seconds worth of screeching sound, so in many cases they are sampled and can be found as wav files. You simple load the file into winamp or mediaplayer, send audio out from your PC to the Tape Load input on the synth, find the right playback volume (usually very loud), and there ya go. I've done it many times with my Juno-106.

I've got a Jupiter 6 (not mine) on my bench for a battery replacement (the
battery was dead, so the volatile memory held nothing). The owner thinks
that the factory patches need to be played back into the Jupiter via
cassette afterwards (a la Prophet 5). Is this true? If so, where can this
tape be found or downloaded?

The Jupiter 6 uses a CR-1/3N battery with tabs. These seem to be a bit
difficult to find, but I found someone who has the $20K machine to weld
tabs onto regular CR-1/3 batteries, which are quite common. ; It
is: Electronic Supply, 425.774.5534, speak with Don. ; His pricing is fair.
