I set my Axe Fx rig up on Sunday morning ready for the church service. Went to work and when I popped out during my lunch break to play at church my ground control pro midi controller wasn't powered up.
I power it via a 7 pin midi cable and the power adapter hooks up to the Axe Fx When I got everything home I found the power adapter was blown. It was over 10 years old so I wasn't shocked. Got a new one yesterday and it lasted 10 mins at most, Something in my set up is blowing power adapters. I checked the midi cable and can't seem to make the power pins short, so it's either the GCPro or the Axe Fx causing it.

Yep I did, though it doesn't strictly need the correct amp, the device will draw what it needs, so as long as the power supply isn't underated it's fine.
I hoped it was the midi cable (cheapest and easiest fix) but I can't make the power pins short. The Axe Fx only connects the power supply connector to the midi cable, so I doubt it's that so I'm guessing it's the controller. especially seeing as it works for a while before killing the power supply. Now I have to try and make a do all kind of patch until I can get this fixed -------------------- My SoundCloud

Sorry to hear this man! I can't help about this issues, but every time I have an issue like this I visit a friend who is Engineer and always solves these type of problems easily. Try to contact a professional who can help you without the risk of ruining the device!

Embarrassingly all my training is in electronics but I just don't have the equipment to troubleshoot it.
