Hmm, I thought your question was about single vs dual supply, so
that's what I replied to. You're right, there's not much mentioned
about the voltage ranges. The only reference I can find is in the
schematic, where it says +/-15. So maybe it's +/-15 only... Better
wait from a response from Ken.

What I was mainly worrying about is since the device is meant to run on +/-15, perhaps it wont get enough power on a eurorack to have the desired distortion without perhaps some modification.
