MIDI INSTRUMENT

Even though the Typhon is an analog synthesizer, it can be powered with a simple USB cable. Giving the unit

some extra mobility, you can just use a power bank and play anywhere (with a 20.000 mAh power bank you

could power and play the unit for up to 60 hours).

Most homes nowadays have at least a dozen or so USB cables and power adapters lying around (from smart-

phones, computers, printers, and other devices), so we didn't think there was a point including one with the

Typhon and adding to the environmental waste.

So, you're thinking, "Can I use any USB power supply?"

Yes, but there are some things you need to consider. Not having a dedicated power adapter means that de-

pending on the USB power supply quality or your connection, could result in a dirty synth or noise floor. You

can easily avoid those situations though, by following these simple rules:

- When powering the Typhon from a computer, if you use a DAW to process the unit's audio, a ground loop

can be created, causing a noticeable hum. In that case, you should power the Typhon from a different power

supply, and not from the same computer that you're running the DAW on.

- Using a very long USB cable can also cause line noise. For cleaner sounding performance it's also better to

use a USB cable that has a ferrite bead installed.

- Make sure your USB power adapter is rated for at least 500mA

- Poor quality USB power adapters should be avoided.

- And as mentioned above, when using a power bank, make sure it's a good quality one. You can also power

a keyboard controller with the same power bank.
