Moving Classic 1 to Europe?

Thinking about moving a (standard 110V/60 Hertz) Classic 1 to Europe with me, into 220V, 50 Hertz-territory. Would it work there using a (European) VPI ADS or a Heed Orbit? Or would the Hertz get in the way?
Thanks for any thoughts you may have.

a proper voltage converter with enough watts (get more than needed)

I just got one to convert Japan 100v to USA 120v. Not a speck of hum. Make sure you can return it, just in case it hums.

Assuming you have the Classic 1 with the 120V synchronous motor, a VPI SDS power supply works with all voltages. The Classic 1 SE uses 24V DC ADS.

Thanks for your comments! @noromance I am glad that the SDS (or the ADS?) would work. @elliottbenewcombjr, interesting that a voltage converter would work, but I suppose in your case Hertz is the same?
