    What is the current draw of the new 9v bass microsynth?
    I know it comes with a 200mA power supply, but surely it doesn’t need that much?
    Please help me, as I am looking to buy a new power supply and need info on this.

    Good Morning All,

    The Bass Microsynth has a current draw of 40 mA. Keeping making sounds that shakes the inner doldrums of your amusement.

    This is pretty unbelievable.
    I tried to feed my MS with the 9v output of the Korg Pitchblack (simplier because I have a very messed up pedalboard) .
    If I use the Microsynth alone (Guitar-> effect-> amp) it works perfectly, but if I put it in chain with the other effects it doesnt’work.
    If I engage it the red led keeps working good but there is no sound…

    update: from the “manual”

    IMPORTANT PLEASE READ: The Micro Synth will not work with the same power adaptor that is daisy chained to other pedals in its signal chain. Please run the Micro Synth off of its own power adapter.

    I read this but I don’t get it. The pedal has the same power supply that only feeds it. ???

    Hi FUZZ! Did you confirm that the power draw of Bass Mycrosynth is 40mA? i have the new version 9V.
    I have also a PowerSupply for my pedalboard, (with galvanic isolation for each port and 120mA), can i attach the BMS into one of this?
