So much cursed. Cursed USB to 12v cable (because the output is not switched on usb power good, so it starts at 5 v and then jumps to 12 v after a couple of hundred milliseconds). Cursed home made adapter that switches positive from the tip to the ring. Cursed piano because it wants positive on the barrel.
