Voodoo Lab Pedal Power

Plug and Play

Absolutely quiet -- no hum at ALL.

Output is delivered at 80 mA (9V or 12.2V for BOSS Pedals). Works great!

Never dealt with. Susect they would be good. Use teir web site for info (voodoolab.com)

It's a workhorse. Got a great deal from J&S Music on this thing (http://jsmusic.com/). They have the best prices on the Planet! Have purchased several items from them -- great service and resonse!!!

The unit is very easy to use. BUT, you should read the informative manual in case you have pedals which require different voltages. You can very easily damage something without following this common sense.

It makes you effects much quieter than the SKB powered Pedalboard. The problem with the SKB pedal board is it is plasti and hollow with a few strenghtening ribs. If you take it apart and put foam in the hollow spaes it makes it much more rigid. And I use a wah pedal on this SKB board and it was flexing the board and the little circut boards inside were getting damaged. After I bought a new one I stiffened it with foam and it has work for a long time. SKB please read this. But I didn't want to take any chances so I use the SKB Pedalboard with the Voodoo Labs Pedal Power for the power. I like the SKB Pedalboard because it is lightweight and has the carrying bag. A custom pedalboard with a lid can be heavy and more expensive.

It is a very heavy duty housing and heavy in weight. I would and will gig without a backup. Only due to the cost. If it was lie $80 new I might buy another. But you pay for quality sometimes and this unit looks like I'll have for a long time without a problem.

neve had to deal with them but they give you plenty of info in the product on what to do if you have a problem.

I love this thing and would reccommend it to any one using the SKB pedalboards power supply. The SKB can quit on you at any time, even when you treat it with care like I did. I went through 3 of them and I don't have all the adapters for all of my pedals so I was out of luck. And SKB wants you to ship it back and then fix and ship it back to you. They must have hired temp help to fix the warehouse full of these things they get back. If stolen I would go buy another.

Not a no brainer, you should read the manual, which is quite good and informative, to prevent damaging your pedals or the unit from misuse. It has 8 9v jacks, and a 200 watt outlet, as well as 8 dip switches to change from reg 9v to a slightly higher voltage for certain boss pedals.

Well it doesnt make any sound, which is exactly why I am giving it a ten. No hum, no buzz, no nothing, just silent efficiency.

Built like a tank, no worries here, though I do have a few of my old wall warts around just in case, you can never be too sure.

Never dealt with them, but there webpage is good.

I play mostly rock, the blues and alternative. I power a myriad of pedals with this thing, including a fulltone fulldrive II tr100, a way huge aquapuss, and a crybaby wah to name a few. It comes with all kindsa cords, 5 longer barrel types, 2 mini jacks, and a battery clip. You can also order more cables of you need them. I bought it cause it was pretty much the only one on the market, and I must say I am very very pleased, no more rats nest!

Easy as pie; just attach to your effects boxes and go.

It's a power supply unit, duh, it makes no sound. I power up a Rat, a CompTortion, a Danecho, a Dano Tuna Melt Tremelo and a Fulltone Choralflange. Everything sounds great, so this thing gets a 10.

I've had it for 2 years, smooth sailing all the way.

Never had to deal with them. (Always a good sign).

If you run a bunch of pedals that need batteries, BUY THIS UNIT IMMEDIATELY! What with the exhorbitant price of batteries, this thing will pay for itself in a matter of months. You will never worry about batteries running down again. If you miss the "decaying battery soud", then just put a battery in your TS-8! The Pedal Power is a godsend and I would replace it immediately if it disappeared.

This is an excellent power supply. Just plug cables and power cords into the pedals and you're set. It can power up 8 pedals and comes with 8 cords:5 barrel-type(boss style), 2 male(I have no idea what anyone would use these with) and one 9v battery-clip.

Well, this really doesn't produce any sound, just powers your pedals, but does it very well. Silent and hum free, the way it should be. My pedal setup is as follows: Morley ABY switch(A) to a Boss DS-1, PQ-4, Tech 21 XXL to amp A, then Morley ABY Switch(B) to DOD Envelope Filter, Dano Daddy-O, BF-2, MXR Phase 90,Dano Cool Cat, Ibanez DE-7 to amp B. This setup sounds awesome, at least in my opinion. The only problem is that I had to order 2 more barrel connectors. But other than that, great pedal. Also, you probably are wondering, I have 10 pedals. THe Pedal Power supplies to 8. Well, I have two adapters for my Cool Cat 'cause it's 18v and then just 9v adapter to my PQ-4.

Built like a tank. Very heavy and durable. Will last a while.

This is a great device and works great. I just with it could power 10 pedals instead of 8. Simply the best $180.00 I spent!!

Open the box, find the right plugs, hook in the power, and wham-o you have just eliminate every single wall wart and 9volt battery you have used.

It doesn't make any sound, which it is supposed to. It only makes my setup easier to use, and my effects quieter.

These things are built better than Boss pedals for gods sake. These are perfect for the traveling musician, who needs something to power their pedal board

I have just e-mailed them to see how they will respond. They are very small company that makes awesome products, I bet they are very good. They offer extra plugs if you need more, and they have a 5 year warrenty, can't go wrong

ITs a lot of money, for just a power supply but it is worth it. Fortunetly I got it for a birthday present, so I could enjoy without opening the check book. I have about 5-6 stomp boxes, and it is perfect for use with all of them. YOU COULD POWER ANYTHING WITH THIS LITTLE BOX. If it was stolen, I would find it, cluck the guy who stole it over the head, with this strong box. The only things that I don't like about it is, that it is very heavy, not enough cables to start with, and it can't go past 9volts, but other than that its perfect.

If there has ever been a better example of the expression, "plug and play," I'd love to know where. Pedal Power fits under the second level of my NGM Custom Pedalboard perfectly to power all my effects that don't already have AC plugs. Works like a dream and not a bit of noise!

As I said, the Pedal Power is noiseless. There are switches on the underside for adjusting the voltage for PCA/ASA Boss type pedals, very useful for you old Boss pedal fans. Each plug is 100% isolated and short-circuit protected as to provide the quietest and safest quality.

It's kinda hefty, but hey, it's a transformer in a case...what do you expect. I've had it for six months, and so far it hasn't given out of me yet, I don't believe that it would either.

Never had to deal with Voodoo Lab yet.

This unit works perfectly for my setup and for my style of gigging. I power everything of mine from my Fulltone Fulldrive2, Clyde Wah, to my Dunlop TS-1, Phase 90, Boss TU-2 and everything of mine. E-mail me if you have any questions.

Can't be beat. Plug in those effects, plug the power supply for the Pedal Power into the wall, and let it rip! Also, don't forget to flip the little voltage switches on the underside of the unit accordingly--I just happen to use a Boss Super Phaser, and this thing powers it, no prob! Also, the Voodoo Lab literature is very clearly written. I'm a mechanical klutz and don't know squat about this stuff, and even I could figure out the subtleties without any hassles.

I give it a 9, only because I wish it had a built-in "sag" control so that I could get my silly tube screamer to sound like it was operating on a half-dead 9-volt battery...but other than that, it's a terrific unit that really helps reduce some of the hum. I'm running my guitar's signal (usually single coil pickups) thru a Crybaby Wah => original Ibanez TS9 => Ibanez DE7 delay => Boss PH2 => my stinkin Boogie DC5. The Pedal Power does not seem to work with my Korg G4 Leslie Simulator. The Korg power supply says 9 Volts, so maybe I need one of those special cables that Voodoo Lab mentions in their manual (and other reviewers have mentioned below)...or maybe I shouldn't mess w/it, because the G4 is no longer being made and I don't want to kill the thing. Overall, this unit kicks ass, and it's worth the $150 I plopped down for it. Wish it were a tad more affordable, but the bottom line is I can't afford to be left in the lurch onstage, and I hate fussing with batteries. Besides, it makes setup a breeze, and I like the fact that there are no AC adapter "wall warts".

No problems whatsoever. Yet. The unit is very sturdy and will probably last forever.

Quick & personable responses to emails. No BS. Very pleased here, especially because this is a small company and I understand how busy these guys must be. Still, they took the time out to answer my piddlin' questions!

If this thing vanished on me, I would definitely buy another. The only reason it gets a 9 is that I'd like some more control over the voltage, if possible. Us guitarists are hard to please, I guess. This is a well-made piece of equipment, and it's nice that something like this is widely available. I've been grappling with power problems for years, so it's good to have a quality solution that's somewhat affordable.

Very easy to use...plug in and play.

No noise at all with the MXR Dyna Comp, Maxon Analog Delay, Boss EQ, and Boss TU-2 Stage Tuner I power. The power produced from this unit does make an impact, but only with certain pedals I have used. The Dyna Comp sounds best if not run directly off the power supply. (I shunt a line off the second power port on the Boss TU-2 Tuner.) This seems to "warm" the Dyna Comp up a bit. *NOTE: Voodoo Lab should consider one or two power outputs with fully adjustable power controls. (A knob that could be turned to reduce power from 9volts to 8.5, 8.0, 7.5 etc.) I know this unit has micro switches that change voltage output, but more options on voltage would be a help.

Unit seems to be very well made. (Heavy steel case.) I should have no problems with this product.

I managed to get this power supply on sale, when Musicians' Friend closed their store in New Orleans. I think that the list price is way too high. I would not spend close to $200.00 on this device.

Just plug the power cable in and connect the small cables to your pedals. Although the barrels are a bit longer than most pedals use, they fit well and if you pin/tie the small cables down as I do, you shouldn't have any problems. It doesn't get any easier to use than this unit! Although, the manual does mention something about polarities and if you're not completely sure, a Voodoo Lab tech can answer your questions (please read down at customer support).

The pedals that I'm powering with this are: Fulltone Fulldrive 2, Fulltone Clyde Wah, Boss GE-7, Tech 21 Tri-OD, and Ibanez TS-7. I will be adding the Visual Sound Jekyll & Hyde to the list soon and I've been told be another Pedal Power user that it's going to work fine.

I have not noticed the noise as some of the others stated (I only hear the noise that I usually hear with my equipment). And I have not notice a difference in tone from my pedals (theoretically, even different batteries should affect a pedal such as the Fulldrive 2). I give the unit a 10 in this catagory only because of the lack of noise so far (obviously not because it produces pleasant sounds).

I've only had it for a few days. It uses a metal casing and it seems very durable. I can't rate this catagory... it's too soon to tell (maybe after I've gigged with it for a few months I can judge better).

This is what I really wanted to mention in my review. After reading the manual and checking my Fulltone pedals, I was very confused and thought that I might need the "reversed" cables (which can be ordered straight from Voodoo Lab). I posted a question at the guitar forum and sent email to Voodoo Lab. Josh at Voodoo lab answered me once from the forum and another from email - both assuring me that I won't need the special cables (which are $10 a piece - as he stated, very costly for something that I won't need). The replies were timely and extremely helpful. It's this sort of support that would persuade me to purchase other products from company.

Overall, I'm very happy. This allows me to build my own pedal board because now I can leave me pedal set up without worry about batteries being drained (in fact, I've taken all the batteries out of the pedals). I save a lot of time from setting up the pedals and tearing them apart again.

If you use as many pedals as I do, even at $130-150, the unit will pay for itself in time just in batteries. And it's very versatile - being able to power so many different units. The package comes with 6 regular barrel cables, 1 with a male connector (tip) and another with a 9V battery type connector.
