Voodoo Lab PEDAL POWER 2 - Manual (Page 9)

Control switching system), we usually mount the Pedal Power
along with the pedal effects on a sliding shelf.
What if my pedal uses reversed polarity (positive ground)?
Because the Pedal Power has each of its DC outputs isolated,
it doesn’t matter whether your pedals are negative or positive
ground. What does matter is that the power jack has the cor-
rect polarity. The barrel connectors provided are for center
negative and the 3.5mm mini plugs are for tip positive. If your
pedal is different from this, contact Digital Music to obtain
the correct cable.
Doesn’t my pedal need a 200mA power supply?
Not if it runs on a standard 9V battery. The adapter available
from the pedal’s manufacturer may be able to supply
up to 200 or 300mA, but pedal effects which will run on a
battery will not draw more than about 65mA.
Can I use the Pedal Power instead of the AC adapter for my
processor or MIDI pedal?
No. The Pedal Power is intended to run only pedal effects
which are normally powered by 9V batteries, so it will only
provide a maximum of 100mA per output. You can plug the
AC adapter supplied with your processor or MIDI pedal into
the Pedal Power’s AC auxiliary outlet.
Can I power my pedal which requires 18V (uses two
9V batteries)?
Yes. Because the Pedal Power’s outputs are individually iso-
lated, you can wire two of them in series for 18V. Be sure to
observe proper polarity. Digital Music can provide you with
a custom cable to do this.
