Re: [elektron] i killed my sidstation

2003-11-02 by SiD LoHr

i feel ya man.. last week i made the same mistake with my Braintec 
TransistorBass-3.. plugged in the wrong power supply and killed it. 
only difference is, the SidStations are easily replacable of the 
second hand market, and elektron is still in buisness so they can 
repair it, the Braintec isn't. only 400 of em were made (as opposed 
to 1,388 sidstations), and they were made in 1994 by a long-since 
gone under company.. ive been having difficulty finding somebody able 
to repair it because of the lack of information on this rare synth.

worst of all tho is i paid near 400 EUR for it and the day i got it 
in the mail and 1st plugged it in i fried it!!! didnt even get a 
chance to hear what it sounded like!!!

so hey, be glad your not me!
