2*A-110    VCO                 = 140 mA      | 140 mA

1*A-121 Multimode VCF   = 30 mA        | 300 mA

1*A-138b Mixer log            = 10 mA        | 360 mA
2*A-140 ADSR                  = 40 mA        | 400 mA
1*A-145 LFO 1                  = 30 mA        | 430 mA
1*A-146 LFO 2                  = 20 mA        | 450 mA
1*A-148 S&H                    = 20 mA        | 470 mA
1*A-160 Clk Divider          = 40 mA         | 510 mA
1*A-161 Clk Sequencer     = 20 mA         | 530 mA
1*A-170 Slew Limiter        = 20 mA          | 550 mA
1*A-180 Multiples              = 0 mA           | 550 mA
1*A-190 Midi-CV              = 60 mA         | 610 mA  total current draw

-BS2 without A-130 (or A-131): 590 mA  
-and then with an additional A-112: 640 mA
So it will work if you remove one VCA.

And by the way: If your modules consume more than 650mA, then not only 
will your A-112 be "underpowered", but the whole system. Unstable VCOs 
(A-110s) will be the cause (as happened in my sytem when the modules 
consumed round 670mA)

cheers,
