Powering Pedals


I put together a pedal board. I thought batteries would be the way to go but I'm already tired of replacing them and not knowing if one or two are a little weak and hurting my sound.
I have seven pedals in total and I think they all use 9v adapters. Is it feasible to daisy chain them all from one adapter? or should I have multiple adapters and how many?

Re: Powering Pedals


I second the Pedal POwer
I have one on my pedal board, I also cut out the bottom of my pedal board and put some angle iron and have the pedal power sit flush with the top of my board so all the connections are below the board to keep it looking clean

I bought two One Spots with daisy chains. Works slick. They're running nine pedals.

Re: Powering Pedals


I'm a big fan of the Godlyke PA9 powerall. Only takes up one spot on your power strip and can pedal 5 pedals, up to 9 with an add-on cable. Best of all, it's only $40. I've got two of 'em (one for each of my rigs), and they're extremely quiet.

Re: Powering Pedals


Back when i was using pedals, i used the Visual Sound 1-Spot, and i definitely recommend it. Plus, they are great guys at the company. The first one i had was defective, and they just sent me not only a new one, but an upgraded model with no hassle whatsoever. (The old ones had a really thin cord-the newer ones have a thicker sturdier cord)

Well it looks like a Godlyke or 1 Spot will do the trick, and fit my budget. Thanks
