Those have been around for several years now. He says the battery isolates the power to the board; I would be gobsmacked if they’ve paired a big rechargeable battery with a truly isolated power distribution system. It’s likely that all the pedal power points share a ground point. No games have been changed, except the novel idea to use magnets instead of Velcro, and even then they’ve got special pads you have to stick your pedals to just like the Temple Audio boards. Pass.

bazzbass Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 power is transferred magnetically from the battery to the pedals, no daisy chaining. That is the game changer imho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the game changer imho Not really a game changer imo since you still have to stick a power plug in your pedal and attach the other end to the rail and the battery powers all pedals attached to the rail which makes it a daisy chain and thus a standard (likely much more expensive) battery powered board.

That is the game changer imho Sounds exactly like a daisy chain to me. You’ve got a power plug making contact with a strip of metal... that other pedal power plug things are also contacting. Daisy chain, just without the wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cattytown Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 It's a simple bus - very like a daisy chain. Like basically the same! It even *looks* vulnerable to shorts - i really hope it isn't as vulnerable as it looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
