Cgs synth

I suspect that INSIDE the blacet supply the 0 volt line is not connected to
ground.
The connection to mains earth is unimportant. It is the 0 volt lines of all
the panels that must be linked. Using "ground" to do it is just a
convenient, but NOT foolproof way to do it.
Find the 0 volt line on the cgs panel (either of the middle two pins of any
power connector) and link that to the ground line of the serge.

>thank you so much...
>problem is, I am in Japan, and there are no ground outlets here. the whole

country is all 2 prong (and the east is 50hz). I have my whole serge, which
is 16 panels, all grounded to the power supply, and that goes into the
outlet, which is only 2 prong, but i've never had a problem with them. I
also made a cord for the blacet so that the ground could also be grounded to
the same serge ground line, but had no effect.

fantatic set of modules.
