Hi all,

Has anyone tried to use a "proper" regulated power supply on the E-MU 0404 USB audio interface? The stock PSU looks quite flimsy, which leads me to wonder if a beefy PSU could improve the SQ of 0404. The power requirement is simply 5 VDC, 1A.

Thanks!

The search function should turn up several threads.
I'm not sure anyone ever did it though. Lan had a long thread about the 1616M once,and i'm sure there was also something about an improved PSU..

If you find the newer threads (specificaly about the 0404 USB) There should be atleast one thread where people tried to trace the psu rails on the board, the point was to find out whether there are any regulators onboard and the voltage was stepped up.. Unfortunately i dont remember the details

You should check this out first
