Default pedal power

what do you guys reccomend?

im using 4 pedals. two boss delays, a tech 21 overdrive, and a planet waves tuner.

oh and also, i play a lot of shows in a wide range of places, so clean power and all that interference and stuff is of concern.

Well i just went through all this and there is another thread running on this topic but I finalised on Voodoo Labs PP2 but then finalised again on the BBE Supa Charger which is a clone of the Voodoo Labs PP2 but 30-40% cheaper. Only got this 2 weeks ago but the board runs well. I run with a Line 6 DL4 that has a high current draw and the BBE has 2 outlets that support this. So far so good.

I've been using a 1 Spot for the past few years of heavy gigging, in many different places, it's been working out fine for me. I have to admit though I want to give the Voodoo lab power a shot and see how much, if any better it really is.

I cant comment for gigging purposes, but at home is was easier having a supply.

The PP2 has eight 9V outputs which will power any type of battery operated effects. Each output is complelty isolated and short circuit protected, filtered and regulated. Result is reliable , no hum and no noise.

It can power Line6 modeling pedals, Boss Twin pedals plus has two variable voltage outlets to simulate worn batteries.

It can also power the Boss PSA type and the older Boss ACA type pedals like the DM2, CS-3 among others.

ex: Boss DM2 by simple flick of the dim switch, on outlets 1-4.

I've always done fine with a One Spot.

Where the BBE falls short is no courtesy outlet which both the Voodoo Labs PP2 and ModTone PowerPlant have. This will allow you to run something like a M9 or M13.

Hmm. Methinks that would be a good name for your delay pedal.
