VOODOO
LAB
PEDAL
POWER 2+
PROS:
Standard power
supply, so mounting options are
plentiful. Isolated outs, Courtesy
outlet for external effects.
CONS:
Somewhat limited for
larger boards, will have to buy
two units.
There’s no way around it—the Pedal Power
series is the longest-running power supply
in the business, used on boards all over the
world. Though Voodoo Lab has released many
other supplies in the Pedal Power line, the 2
Plus is the one that comes to mind, not only
when mentioning “Voodoo Lab” but when
saying the term “isolated power supply” in
general. The Pedal Power series uses a toroidal
transformer which provides isolation across
several outputs. Four “ACA” outputs provide
100mA of current, while two “L6” taps provide
300 each. Two additional “Sag” outputs let
users vary the voltage via two miniature knobs,
for use on analog pedals, such as fuzzes where
users prefer the sound of a depleted battery.
One of the handiest features of this particular
supply is the “courtesy” outlet on the back. This
lets players hook up an AC pedal or another
whose current draw is too demanding, via an
external mains jack.
