What a story !
I work w/ an Xpander as 1st owner since I buyed it new in 1987
replacing my OB-8 then.
Never had probs working in studios or touring international w/
it,- never had tuning problems til today and it sounds still good
all day.
Tactswitches replaced, encoders cleaned and some caps in PSU
replaced ...
Its a workhorse since 26 years,- well ...
:-)

Hi folks,
A few years ago, I bought my Xpander from America and
imported it to the
UK. I noticed soon after buying it that the synth sounds
better in 120v
mode.
I just want to recommend to anyone with tuning problems,
in a country @
240v, tries the Xpander in 120v mode with a stepdown
transformer of some
kind. EG:
But always make sure you set the switch at the back
correctly, or a 240v
plugged into a 120v xpander would blow the fuse (though
you can get the
fuses cheap from Maplin). I take no responsibility if this
happens.
Cheers,
Jeremy.
