hmmm, i also worry that this might be the case. i am just wondering why all my other stuff works with that voltage converter. it seems they have another voltage converter in the venue i will be playing tomorrow, so there is still a chance it will work. i didnt have problems before when using the md with voltage converters. but those were more "big". the one i am using now can convert up to 85 watt, which should have been enough, since the md is just using 15 to 20 watt, if i remember the documentation correctly. this behaviour is kind of disappointing to me. i have to rely on my equipment while being on tour, and i cannot afford travelling with a choosy "Princess".*grin* anyway, does somebody know what kind of specs a power adapter unit needs, thats able to power up the md. maybe i can buy a japanese one here, and use it.
