Dear macmusicians

I need some advice,

I just bought a presonus firebox from sweetwater and had my mom mail it to me here in the canary islands. I have a voltage converter but i am worried about the HZ difference. The firebox has a frequency of 60 hz, here in spain they use 50 hz frequency. some websites say that only electronic clocks suffer from the difference, and that other appliances adjust themselves to the frequency, this is too unclear.

My question is: has anybody used an audio interface from the states in europe without it blowing up? I have a feeling this is a stupid question, the answer being: don´t try it send the interface back to sweetwater and buy a firebox here in europe.

Not worth reading... Read at your own risk.... It was late... I apologize in advance... Funny? Hope so. True? Mostly.

Send an E-mail to Tech Support for the "Right Info"... An Australian! You Kidding? More like, "Bloody Presonus mongrels don't know jack mate. I got a Pioneer Hi-Fi Amplfier I altered that'll leave this Presonus for dead! Gimme $60 bucks an its yours, its outback in me shed, crikey, just remembered the bloody volume knob is missing... gimme $55..."

Lived there 12 years. Great women, weather and fishing too... I miss the three, but I don't miss the:

"We're 20 years behind here mate." "Pull the bloody plug out! No, for gods sake don't touch the Amp! Where's me bloody fire extinguisher... Jeez! Did that light up or what?! Naw, the Presonus is finished mate. Not me mate it was the bloody Presonus, they send this crap over here and it can't handle our conditions. Tell ya what, $30 bucks and the Pioneer Hi-Fi is yours, plus $100 for me labour... No we are not held responsible for any Electrical Gear not made in Australia, that's always been our policy. Want a beer?

This "Story" is 50-50. Hope I don't get in trouble for this?

Oh yes, the Sydney Gay Mardi Gras.
