Powered Pedals = Noise?

[mccabekyle]

Is this always the case? I'll be honest, I've never tried any of the Furmans or VooDoo labs. Last time I powered all my pedals was with a daisy chain coming out of my TU-2 (powered by a BOSS Power Supply). At first, I thought it might have been the electrical line at our practice spot, but apparently, it's the same everywhere.

I'm tired of dealing with batteries. Help, anyone?

Can't be true I purposely bought a tu2 to power 4 of my other pedals, and they don't make a noise at all... hmmm.... Funny

Get the Voodoo labs Pedal Power and kiss the noise issue goodbye.

you need something that is regulated - I just bought a variable voltage REGULATED power supply from the bay and its fine.

Pedal power II is the quitest one i know off...

im gettin a dc brick on friday, to power mypedals, is it really not as good as the pedal power 2?

A guy I know has a daisy chain that feeds his pedals power through the battery connectors.

Update: It was my POS wah pedal that was causing all of the noise! I pulled the wah and everything seems much quieter now!

By powering anything, youre connecting it to the cities ground grid which can be very dirty depending on the size and density of the power users in the city (I think, I dont remember much from physics lol), but your amp will still have the exact same problem whether you power your pedals or not.
