I am powering: Behringer Ultra octave, EHX Big Muff w/ tone wicker, Homemade fuzz face with dc power input (well soon anyway), Boss DD-6 and sometimes a boss super overdrive...taylornutt wrote:What pedals are you powering? It's hard to make a suggestion unless I know what you need to power.
I use the Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 2 mounted under my pedaltrain pro. It works great for me, I am powering different voltage pedals like a DL4, Polychorus, Worm in addition to various 9 volt pedals.
I am sure any similar power brick will work as long as it powers all your pedals without noise.
Hope this helps

So you guys think I should get one of these? They look very tempting...benecol wrote:+1000000 - I bought one of these instead, and it's brilliant.Thom wrote:Yes - this is exactly what you want.

I think I'll get one, whats the maximum amount of pedals do you think you could run off it without any problems? Just out of curiosity...benecol wrote:I'll go so far as to offer you a Victor Kiam-style moneyback guarantee.

Yeah, although I think this might just be his rack mounted stuff, there are plenty of forums that have pics of his whole set-up. The scale of it all is just insane...kim wrote:good for him he's got long legs i guess. i couldn't even reach the third row.

I have a Diago Powerstation and have gigged with it for 2 years and it has never let me down, I run about 15 pedals from it, some at 18v with an adapter made by Diago too and I have no noise at all.
I managed to split the short bit of cable from the power unit to the daisy chain (my fault not a manufacturing fault) and I contacted James at Diago and he offered to fix it for nothing despite me having had it for over a year and the damage being my fault.

my main reason for wanting to get a powersupply is reducing noise. I've heard the one spot's can be noisy (from UK folks however, maybe it works different with their power over there?).
what are the main features I need to look for to make sure it's quiet?
I'm currently daisy chaining off a 9.5v 300mA DigiTech wallwart.

the 1spot is 1200MA I have never had a single problem with it, neither has my bass player or anyone else I know. I dont understand all the hate for it, it works absolutely perfect, there is nothing wrong with it and it is cheap as hell! I was daisy chaining 10 pedals on one of them for a bit and had no problems, a few of those pedals were a very power hungry DL4, memory toy, and a small clone.
They are absolutely perfect.
They are absolutely perfect.

yeah, I understand they're rated with amperage high enough to run many pedals but I've maxed out my 7 connection daisy chain on that digitech PS and never had a problem either. the only issue is noise floor. I don't see how the one spot would do anything to address this. I'm starting to think that there's really no better options than what I have unless I want step up to voodoo labs level PS with isolated outputs.
