There is no way to "beef up the size of, the power one transformer that's in the 900?". That, and it's not a transformer. It's a power supply. Although a transformer is part of such a power supply. I don't know if another Power One power supply with more current will fit behind an MOTM 900. Regardless, you have two options. You can entirely replace the supply you have now with a bigger one that will power everything. Or you can get another supply and use it to power to some of your modules -- perhaps use the MOTM-900 to power your MOTM modules, and the second supply to power your Milton and Blacet modules. What you do not want to do, is connect the the output of two separate power supplies together. 7/25/06 >It's come to my attention that I need to upgrade my power supply. >Upon hooking up my new milton sequencer for the first time >yesterday, I got all the lights on my various modules coming on, but >no sounds from my vcos.
