how to use the daisy chain

[Horrorflicked]

how do i use a daisy chain?
is it correct if i use a single adaptor and multiply it using the daisy chain to power all my other pedals?
i heard that it wont provide enough current or sumthin..
anyway..
what would be the correct way?

yes tt is how you use a daisy chain.
i assume you're using one spot. one spot provides 1700mA of current. calculate the total current drain on your pedal. of it doesnt exceed 1700ma then you're safe

 

[Horrorflicked]

that's it??
cooooool..
so whats those power supply pedals for??

Make sure your adapter has enough current for all the pedals. The 1spot does have a lot, but the more generic ones like the Boss ones sometimes only have 200mA.

The power supply pedals are for making fun of and for cheating people who don't know better.

big thanks!
woohoo!
anyway how much would a one spot adapter cost?

$35 at Guitar 77.

Currently it's out of stock.

The daisy chain costs $15.(Visual sound perpendicular heads)

regarding the 1spot adaptor...
can one 1spot adptor power up 2 different pedal with diff polarity?
eg-boss ds-1 and EHX holy grail???
and what's with the visual sound reverse polarity converter?
