First time post, but hoping someone here is knowledgeable to help! I recently had an incident where the power cord for my Minimoog Model D Reissue was sliced through. There is enough cable for me to resolder the original connector back on, but when I pulled the insulation block away from inside the connector housing, it stripped the wires bare and I have no idea what was soldered where. Does anyone know which coloured jacket is connected to which pin? There is a red, yellow, blue, black and drain wire inside.
hi ,
i had the problem that the plug was worn out after a short time of pluging/replugging . therfore i got rid off that china plug and installed a proper neutric plug. additionally i have used shrinking wire to prevent shortcuts between the wires and ground - wich would destroy the power supply and/or the minimoog. i wrote down following connections and i strongly advice to double check if that really corresponds with your plug as well. i do not take over any issues due wrong soldering or other pinnings - you need to know what you do !!!
pin colour voltage
1 yellow -15
2 blue +15
3 black GND
4 red +5 Volt
Shield: cable shield
Thanks for this! Worked a treat. I also took the liberty of using a high quality right-angled Neutrik plug! Though a word of warning for anyone wanting to use the Neutrik NC4 FRX-B plug, you have to remove the aluminium panel at the back of the Moog and swivel the power socket 180 degrees in order to make use of the plug.
