Subject: Re: Poly 800 MK 1 Short circuit

Yes!
That's exactly what happend. But the Poly 800 was turned on, and the 1/4" jack that hit the power supply tip was connected to the line-in of my laptop. The korg's display went out and I haven't been able to turn it back on. Neither with the power supply i was using, or any other.

I took some pictures of the circuit board, but nothing seems 'burned' or wrong...

PS I know connector CN9A is out of his socket, I did this to give a better view.
