So after lusting after one for a while i took the plunge on one from Japan without thinking about the fact that it would come with a Japanese power supply…
I got in touch with a UK based company that others have dealt with in the past (Pulsar) but the 6V adapter isn’t produced anymore. Has anyone had any luck sourcing a replacement power supply, preferably not from a sketchy company in China? Failing that, does anyone have a power supply lying around from a deceased MK1 that they don’t need?
Thanks!
Try reaching out to Elektron directly, they may be able to provide one or at least point you in the right direction.
Welcome to the community. You might want to try Elektron directly. Won’t be cheap but it’ll be the official power supply for the machine
You beat me to it by a matter of seconds haha
We’re all just such a helpful bunch here
Thanks, good idea. I did contact them and they recommended me the replacement that isn’t being made any more, and when I told them that their suggestion was “if you follow the specifications I guess it shouldn’t be too hard to find one”.
Any other thoughts? I’m stumped, and at the moment my Machinedrum is serving as a very expensive paperweight.
It seems like you found a power supply: could you let the forum know where you found one?
would this work with the mk1 MD & MnM?
