Hey,

saw some comments about this site. Awesome prices. However, what's the scoop for electrical requirements...

I wanna order my Q rack from them, but do I need a step down transformer?

"We have 230 Volt in Germany. You might need a step-down transformer, or some items you cannot buy from us-check. And: A good deal is only a fair deal. For you and us."

Also, do I get to eliminate German tax or not...

I gotta tell you, those Waldorf prices are freaking incredible.

Doh. I am in the USA (California)

That should help the electrical question...

You're either going to need a US spec power supply for gear with external transformers, or a step-down if it's an internal power supply...

You live in the US so you don't pay German taxes.

The Q Rack has an internal universal power supply, check the waldorf website for more info:

Then buy one and be prepared to spend weeks if not months discovering the hidden depths of this machine, it really is unbelieveable.

cheers

No German taxes. Incredible!

The only thing that I noticed was that their return policy was rather stringent. No Returns.

If it is broken, then you can return it at your expense and then they will send it back fixed or a new one at their expense...

I'd be interested to know Pongoid's experiences with them as it appears as though he ordered his Q Rack from them.

And do not Buy "Little Parts" from Musicians Gear as they do not stock them and cant get hold of them and spend months and months not returning your money.
Although my Esi-2000 arrived fine.

It should be here tomorrow. Hoping no bull. Paid extra for the rapid delivery. Keep trying out the boards in different store, but all have the old OS. Not sure what the term 'drum map' means yet. not sure if it's a single sound, or a set mapped out across the keyboard i.e. kits. This is important as it only has four note multitambrality.

I think you have to pay it, then it's reimbursed as the item leaves Europe.
