ie it will be cool to use the Roland modules loose without the huge

Has anyone tried anything like this with a 1200ma A100p


thanks Dave

Should you manage to get hold of a module but haven't a rack to power
it, there is a solution. If you can handle a soldering iron, then
something like the Maplin +/-15v (100ma) PSU should suffice (part
number LP88V). You need to make up a lead with an 8-pin DIN plug
(part number FJ91Y -- see connections list below) at one end to
supply the module. Warning! Don't attempt to connect a 100M module to
anything other than a Roland rack unless you are confident that you
won't damage the module with an incorrectly wired plug or PSU.
Mistakes can be expensive.

System 100M 8-pin DIN plug connections are as follows:

� Pin 1 PSU +5v
� Pin 2 gate
� Pin 3 no pin
� Pin 4 LED +
� Pin 5 Trigger
� Pin 6 PSU -15v
� Pin 7 PSU ground
� Pin 8 CV
� Pin 9 LED ground

While we're on the subject, here are the connections for the 6-pin
leads that link 100M racks to other racks or keyboards; use Maplin
part number HH29G for the 6-pin plug. If you're linking racks, don't
connect pins 1 and 2, but use all pins when connecting a 100M keyboard.

� Pin 1 PSU -15v
� Pin 2 PSU +15v
� Pin 3 gate
� Pin 4 trigger
� Pin 5 PSU ground
� Pin 6 CV
