I, of course have dropped one enormous bollock.. By my calculations I need 16 sockets now for my gear and only have 2 x6 sockets available duh!

Damn I wish that synths could run of them power supplies you run your guitar pedals from so you could plug multiple synths on 1 socket hehe

Have you tried? I run 3 303's from one PSA adaptor.

No not yet, I was thinking if I could run x5 TD-3's and a Behringer Crave from one.
They're all 9v as far as I know, don't wanna blow owt up here tho lol

yeah you should be fine for the 9v ones, just check the polarities.
obvs, some of the bigger ones wont as they need more current :)
:ud:

Post

but i have a 10 plus 6, and all my pedals run off one 2, as i have one stupid 12v with an odd sized plug, my pwer pack can do 12 v, just not the right sizes :x

Cheers vurt, any recommendations on power supplies? I'lll need one anyways soon as I'll end up with about 6-8 pedals for FX alone. Would be great to run the Behringers on one as well though, I doubt the AKAI's and Hydra would tho

Funnily enough I did order a mic last week. However it's a €30 USB jobbie for conference calls.

Go for the Roland PSA240. They power half my studio.
All the 303's, the 101's, MKS50 controller, distortion pedals. I'm sure they work on the TD3's too.

Mushy what about the leads from the synth to the power supply mate? Are there special cables as obviously I won't get a 3 pronged plug in to one of these so I'm assuming I'll need x5 cables for the TD-3's I'll google that PSA240 now mate cheers

Post

the roland/boss is cool.
i use a truetone, it offers a couple of other voltage options and an option to power a battery only pedal too...
probably overkill for you, if all you need is the 9s :)

I bought something like this:

PSA240 into the splitter into the 303s.

Actually I think it's a PSA230 which was always confusing given the 240 volts.
