Can any kind soul help a pedal IDIOT? Visual Sound One Spot?

Post by GlobalCooling »

I'm planning to power just an EHX Stereo Pulsar, Hardwire Delay/Looper, Analogman Chorus, Modtone Volume Pedal, and some sort of dirt pedal with the Visual Sound One Spot. I'm not a serious gigger, but I do play quite a bit and I'd love the convenience that the one spot seems to provide.

I'm not quite sure what the one spot does or if it works how I think it does?...Could someone just hold my hand and explain how it works? Thank you so much.

There's one adaptor, one wire, and a bunch of little plugs along the way that go into each of the pedals.
Maybe this'll help:

As long as all of those pedals have the same power regulation (9v center negative) then you're able to daisy chain them together. Which is just plugging in the power jacks that you need from the 1st pedal to the last pedal.

That Hardwire is a good piece of equipment. I love mine, which is powered by a one spot.

Find the specs of each pedal and add together the current draw; it's rated in mA and is normally between like 10 and 200 depending on the type of pedal..

If your One Spot supplies more than that, all will be well.

you will be fine with that- use the diff plug on the old ehx stuff
I would have given up already if it wasn't for the impending revolution!
