Will instrument "X" work on my local power ?

Multi-Standard Designs:

Fortunately, most musical instruments today come with power supplies that can be used in almost any part of the world. Check the manufacturer's label to see what type of input it can handle.Those designed for use just about anywhere have a section on the label that looks something like this : INPUT: AC 100V- 240V~ 1.0A 50 / 60 Hz
This shows that the device was designed to be used over a wide range of voltage levels and at different electrical frequencies. In this particular example, the instrument can accept “nominal” voltage anywhere from 100 volts to 240 volts and can operate on either a 50 Hz or 60 Hz system.Although most power supplies are intelligent, some power supplies have a switch right on them to change the voltage. In both cases, all you would need is the proper power cord to go from the power supply to the outlet.Non-Multi-Standard Designs :Although all recent designs are multi-standard, not all instruments are available on both voltages. When You place an order on our site You can specify the voltage current of your choice (110/120 V or 220/240 V). Please choose the appropriate voltage when ordering an electronic instrument. Note : not all instruments are available on both voltages. Please contact us if you want to be sure.

We do have step-up/step-down voltage converters available, like :· VC-85 (85 Watt)· VC-100 (100 Watt)· VC-200 (200 Watt)· VC-300 (300 Watt)· VC-500 (500 Watt)· VC-800 (800 Watt)· VC-1000 (1000 Watt) More InfoPlease contact us for more information regarding a specific instrument. See also the instrument description on our website for more info about voltage or adapter requirements.


I find it hard to believe that synthplanet wouldn't be able to cater for foreign voltage requirements. A "check before you order" wouldn't be too much trouble would it? Ans even if it wasn't, there are adapters available.
