Born 2B Mild Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) A question for you pedal experts... I've got a Dunlop DC10 power brick and want to power seven 9v pedals from it. Sadly, I've lost the cables and need to order. Should I buy seven separate cables, or can a single daisy chain lead work from just one of its outputs? dunlopbrick.jfif Edited April 28, 2020 by Born 2B Mild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cathode_Follower Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 You could daisy-chain the DC10 as the 7 x 9v outputs are not isolated from one another, however best practice would still be to use separate cables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will certainly do what is safest, but seven cables might be more messy than one. Thanks for your comments. I've not dared use so many pedals before but I want to stereo in to two rigs with different FX per channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cathode_Follower Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 The stated maximum current draw of 375mA seems conservative for 7 pedals, you may risk overloading the supply. You may want to check the specs of all your pedals so make sure you wont exceed this. http://stinkfoot.se/power-list is a good resource if you cant find info on the pedal itself of from the manufacturer. However it is also worth mentioning that if you're going to be bi-amping you will very likely run into some ground loop issues if running everything off the same supply.
