I have a gig coming up in Belgium, and have an FM9 purchased in the United states. Do I simply need a plug adapter, or do I need a voltage converter for 230V? Also will 50 Hz versus 60 Hz be an issue?
It is on August 24 with Asia featuring John Payne at a festival is Ostend. We're supposed to start at 9pm. Those are the only details I have so far. I'll let you know if any more information comes in.@steadystate Are you open to saying where / when's gig is?
Oh, man...you went there. Yes, it's type E.
You're likely to see two types in BE, shown below. Most common is with the male ground pin as you said.
I looked into your festival, should be great, right on the beach. Hopfully the weather holds out for you. It's been the wettest year on record. Bring an umbrella and a rain coat. Check the weather here before you pack. I thought if you were playing close to Brussels I'd try to check it out but Oostende is far. Fun fact: Marvin Gaye hung out there for a while to get things together, you may find a statue of him there. Anyway, break a leg.
P.S. If you like beer, you'll be in the right place
P.P.S. Don't ask for "French fries", leave off the "French"

Good old AI. He'll craft an answer out of whatever bullshit he finds lying around.I'm getting conflicting information on the internet. Is it correct that a type E connector is used in Belgium, and that the socket has a male ground pin, while the plug has a female ground hole?
For laughs, this is the response I got from ChatGPT 4.o.
