Hi, I'm new to the forums and hope someone can help me! I am borrowing a friend's Tascam 414MKII to make my first home recordings. Only problem is, the AC adapter has gone waywardly to Florida with another friend by accident. I tried plugging it into a Yamaha AC adapter, but realized the polariy is reversed for the Tascam PS-414. Now most of you know that Tascam has a warning against using any other adapters for their product. I don't know if this is toal BS or not so I looked into it. I couldn't find anything specific to tascam, but in general it seems that some say you can use any other adapter, as long as everything matches up. I was thinking about buying a universal adapter so the size and polarity can be switched at will. So what I'm getting at is, can a universal adapter be used in accordance with a tascam 414MKII? Thanks for any help. I'm anxious to start recording.
