  If it is possible, it's unlikely a practical approach. You'd still need some kind of transformer, and with the current GNX draws (I think 1300-1600 mA on average) it would take a lot of batteries to run it long enough.
  
  You're probably better off getting an external power pack, or a small generator.

  Aren't the GNX power supplies AC, not DC? Pretty sure the GNX3 is, though it's been a while since I checked. So if you had batteries you'd need an inverter as well.

  AFAIR, they all use the same adapter and have the same power specs, except GNX1 maybe.

  It wouldn't be worth the expense to run any GNX on DC batteries. You could, but you need powerful 12 v batteries, power invertor (dc to AC converter) , plus the oem AC adaptor.

  It'd cost a LOT less to get a nice long extension cord. 8)

  Thanks guys!!
  
  I'm glad there are still people here using the GNX4.
  
  Even though mine is broken down (buttons, pedals not working) I still use it extensively!
  
  EDIT!
  
  another question, I posted in the past...
  
  After I record on the 8 track and playback to play along, the volume plays too high on the playback, higher than the levels I recorded with, this is really annoying...
  
  Anyone else experience this & fix it?
  
  Before I used the software with the board plugged into the computer to adjust the master levels for playback, but it is always the same, even when I adjust the levels....
  
  Playback is always louder than guitar levels.... :evil:
