Got the power supply from here: https://retrogamesupply.com/products/po … c-original

herr_prof, I wish the next time the magic smoke comes to help me I'll still have a functionable DMG in my hands! wink

So yesterday I got myself a power supply for my DMG to save some batteries. It worked fine and I was also happy to see that it got rid of the contrast fluctuation in LSDJ on my backlit console.

Today I wanted to take my DMG out, however, and I put some batteries in it. Then I came back to my desk and thought "well, I might just leave the batteries in" and plugged in the power supply cord. Turned on LSDJ and during a few seconds I watched how the screen gradually turned darker until it was pitch-black and a narrow strand of black smoke came out. Quickly took out the batteries and tested with the power supply only. The power light comes on, but the screen remains black.

Now I'm waiting to see what the fumes I inhaled will cause. I feel a bit dizzy, but it might also be due to the head-banging caused by the realisation of the fact that I destroyed my Gameboy. I have a Gameboy no more. No LSDJ tonight. sad

So what exactly got scorched in there? The backlit biverted screen? Is there some way to save the DMG?

Thanks for your input all, and a huge thanks to XyNo for your tips! I would've never thought about plugging my Gameboy into the Audio in of the E2 (which I got yesterday and am now keenly learning)! It works with the analog sync too, but I'm also getting an arduinoboy to have more options.

Have a great weekend!

Hi!

Has anybody done analog sync with LSDJ from Korg Electribe 2? I was assuming that the sync ports on the device would be similar to those on the Monotribe and Volcas and syncing would work the same but I didn't find any information to back my assumption and the device isn't listed on the analog sync compatibility chart I found on the LSDJ website.

I have this sync cable: https://evadeanddualitymicro.bandcamp.c … slave-mode

Thanks!
