AMAZING TONE STARTS WITH THE PEDAL!
Filter, tune, isolate and protect!
Pedal Power 2 PLUS does it, and does it well, because the less it degrades the performance of your pedal. Players around the world are switching to Pedal Power 2 PLUS because it powers what conventional power supplies can't. The Pedal Power 2 PLUS is handcrafted in the USA, comes with cables, a removable AC power cord, a 5 year warranty and simply makes you sound better!
Isolation is more than just fixing ground loops.
Ground loops cause hum and the solution is to break the unwanted ground path. Isolation is the best way to do this. Unlike other power supplies, Pedal Power 2 PLUS isolates EVERY output. This eliminates tone stealing interaction between units. Now you can drive everything from vintage overdrives to modern digital marvels that others just can't!
A proprietary balanced transformer makes it possible.
A typical transformer, like those used in a wall wart, creates a large magnetic field that causes hum on any nearby audio path. The Pedal Power 2 PLUS uses a custom-designed, ultra-low noise toroidal transformer with separate balanced windings for each output. Now even the most sensitive pedals can be silent.
Switching power supplies isn't for everything.
What's good for charging a cell phone is NOT good for your pedals. While digital switching power supplies are small and inexpensive, they also generate unpredictable transients and external noise. Pedal Power 2 PLUS uses an audiophile-grade linear power supply for stable, clean, pure power.
9 / 12V (x4) - Standard ACA 9V and 12V Boss
With each of these four 100mA outputs, you can easily power any battery-powered 9V pedal. Boss pedals that specify the PSA adapter operate at 9V like most other pedals. Boss pedals that require the ACA adapter run at 12V, which can be selected via switches under the Pedal Power 2 PLUS. Each of these outputs can be individually selected to operate at 9V or 12V.
9V (x2) - 9V and Line 6 High Current Modellers
These two outputs each provide 250mA, allowing you to run high current draw effects like the Boss DD-20 Giga Delay or Line 6 DL4 Delay Modeler. Via switches underneath the Pedal Power 2 PLUS, these two outputs can be configured separately for regulated (Boss Twin Pedals) or unregulated (Line 6 Modelers) power, allowing you to run both units if desired. These outputs can also power all standard 9V effects.
9V (x2) - Standard 9V with battery sag control
These outputs each have an available power of 100mA, but also allow you to collapse the voltage from about 4V to 9V. This function can be activated via the switches on the bottom panel. The SAG control is most useful for circuits based on fuzz, octavia and distortion transistors, as most modern opamp designs are little affected by supply voltage variations. We recommend turning off SAG if you want to use digital pedals like delay, chorus and reverb.
18V / 24V - Using custom cables
All outputs of the Pedal Power 2 PLUS (and the original Pedal Power) are fully isolated allowing you to create different voltages. You can run effects like the current MXR Flanger by combining two 9V outputs to create a single 18V supply. By switching two outputs to 12V ACA mode, you can combine them to create a 24V output to power many Electro-Harmonix pedals, including the Deluxe Memory Man.
