Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

It might be worth checking the voltages whatever power supply you choose is 
actually putting out with a multi/voltmeter before you plug it into the DTX 
module. I say that because I bought such a power adapter from Maplin 
(Electronics shop in England, don't know if they're multinational)... and on 
the 9v setting it was actually kicking out 14.7v. I had to set it to 5v to 
get the required 9v out of it.

Just don't want you to be frying your precious drum module :) Maybe Radio 
Shack stuff's better made/less faulty.

-0400<br>><br>>I believe that Radio Shack makes a universal power 
supply adapter that not<br>>only has selectable tips (with reversing 
polarity), but also has selectable<br>>voltage (up to 12 
v).<br>><br>><br>><br>>It costs I think around 30 
bucks.<br>><br>><br>><br>>Stu<br>><br>><br>><br>>"Life

Replacement - DTXtreme IIs<br>><br>><br>><br>>Hello 
all...<br>><br>>The AC adapter for my DTX IIs module seems to have 
grown legs.<br>>Unfortunately, I need a replacement immediately, with 
rehearsal<br>>tomorrow evening and a show this weekend.<br>><br>>I 
could not find much in the way of specs in the manual, other 
than<br>>mention in the back that it is a 12v.  On page 6 of the manual, 
it<br>>suggests that the adapter may be marked as PA-5C or 
PA-5D.<br>><br>>Can anyone recommend a suitable replacement that I can 
just run up to<br>>the local RShack tomorrow and grab?  Or is there 
something specific to<br>>this one?  Also, whats the diff between PA5C or 
5D and how do I know<br>>which one I had to start with, since the manual 
doesn't tell me?<br>><br>>Thanks a ton in 
advance!<br>>Vic<br>><br>>http://www.MonstersOfRock.info<br>><br>><br>><br>><br>>Community
