IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS - PLEASE READ

!

Please read the Boomstar Modular Synthesizer Manual completely before use, and retain for future reference.

!

IMPORTANT Ribbon Cable Power Information:

Boomstar Modular combines a set of individual modules to create a complete instrument. The individual modules can be

rearranged, removed, and replaced with any compatible eurorack modules from Studio Electronics and other manufacturers.

!

Boomstar Modular uses a standard eurorack power rail to connect the modules to the internal bipolar +/-12v power supply. Please pay very close attention to

the orientation of the ribbon cable when adding and removing modules. The stripe on the ribbon cable marks -12v. This stripe needs to line up with the -12v

pins on the power rail and the -12v pins on the module. Failure to match up the pins correctly can result in damage to one or all the modules in the

Boomstar Modular. On the power rail, the -12v pins are clearly labeled. On the individual modules, the positive and negative sides of the pin connectors are

labeled next to the power header on either the top or bottom of the PCB.

!

Do NOT remove individual modules from the Boomstar while synthesizer is plugged in.

!

NEVER unplug ribbon cables from the Boomstar Modular, or any other modules while the Boomstar Modular is plugged in.
