Re: [korgpolyex] Re: Check and adjustment procedure

2017-05-16 by Daniel Forró

Any adapter which has the same output (volts, amperes), connector and  
polarity could work - inside the instrument there are regulators so I  
think they would deliver proper voltages to internal circuits.

Maybe yours will work too, when you will set proper voltage +5 Volt  
with VR1 in regulator circuit. -5 Volt rail seems to be allowing more  
tolerance - according to the point 1 it can be between -4.7 ~ -5.7  
Volt. Just try it. If voltages will be out of spec, you should try  
different adapter, more near to the original one.
