Indeed. I think the only responsible advice is to get an electrician out there and discuss the issue with him. This isn't like asking for advice on how to best route MIDI, this stuff will kill you or start a fire if you're not careful. Hey, you may get lucky. If the wiring is below spec you may be able to get the landlord to pay for the wiring upgrade. Ask the electrician about this. Let the proffessionals handle it. The last thing we want is a dead looper; especially one as talented as Zoe. Todd On 2/18/06, Fluke <fluke@gotadsl.co.uk> wrote: > Forget the musical equipment.
