Power Supply
No effort or expense was spared here. We don’t know of anyone
who makes good coffee with great beans and bad water, and we
don’t know of anyone who makes great sounding audio equip-
ment with mediocre power supplies. The best parts cannot give
you a sound without dependable power.
The MixDream is equipped with a lavishly dimensioned internal
power supply transformer (77 VA), which is capable of providing
adequate current regardless of any demands you can put on it,
even when running the MixDream pedal to the metal.
The MixDream’s power transformer is also heavily shielded to
minimize hum, and the DC buss is the result of a completely
new circuitry, here including a discrete +/-30V regulator whose
noise level borders on the immeasurable. Extremely fast recti-
fier diodes and 26.000 microFarrad capacitors insure that there
is enough available current at all times and for every imaginable
peak. Additional 470 nF/250 V MKP stabilizing condensers are
present to insure further that any conceivable peak loads will
not affect your mix.
All MixDream relays are supplied by their own separate (12 V)
power transformer windings. Likewise all LEDs have their own
independent 5 V supply. Thus these devices cannot influence
any of audio signal through the power supply.
The MixDream power is provided by the included standard IEC
three-pole (computer) cable. The power chain (cable connec-
tions and transformer) conform to appropriate VDE, UL and CSA
standards. Fuses are rated at 800 mA for 230 V and 1.6 A at 115 V
operation.
