Re: [motm] Cabinet Power - How To Do It?

2002-08-31 by Simon

From looking at the diagrams on the sythesizers.com website...
http://www.synthesizers.com/power.html

I assumed that the system worked without running mains AC to the front panel.

It looks like mains AC runs through the Q102 AC Interface Module on 
the rear of the cabinet to the power supply, and that mains AC is not 
used for the connection to the Q101 Power Control Module on the front 
panel.

Am I wrong in thinking this? Does this system run mains AC from the 
rear panel to the front panel switch and then to the power supply?

Thanks,
