Re: Database of Effects Pedals that Pedal Power operates:

Using an original first issue Pedal Power I am running the following Pedals;

Guitar into; D'Addario Tuner --> MXR 6 Band EQ --> EP-Booster --> S.D. Pickup Booster --> Morley ABY that splits the signal to;

A = CompTortion --> Hiwatt SA112 Bulldog

B = MXR EP-101 Echoplex Preamp --> MXR EP-103 Echoplex Delay --> Marshall 18w 2x10" Combo

The only Pedal not being powered using one of the 8 Outlets is the MXR EP-103 Echoplex Delay since in needs 250ma and the older units only put out 80ma.

Re: Original Pedal Power & MXR EP-103 power issue...

Thank you! It's been a blast being back onstage!

Okay, that makes sense. I was able to use a Grounding Plug Adapter but could only orient the MXR Wallwart so the cord is sticking up = not ideal.

If I were to upgrade to a newer Pedal Power which would you recommend based on the following Pedal compliment?

Guitar into; D'Addario Tuner --> MXR 6 Band EQ --> EP-Booster --> S.D. Pickup Booster --> Morley ABY that splits the signal to;

A = CompTortion --> Hiwatt SA112 Bulldog
B = MXR EP-101 Echoplex Preamp --> MXR EP-103 Echoplex Delay --> Marshall 18w 2x10" Combo

Those Pedals would use up all 8 Outputs available if one could power the EP-103.

Original Pedal Power & MXR EP-103 power issue...

Hello all!

I recently started playing out again after a 22 year sabbatical. Decided to put together a proper Pedal Board which I was very happy with...until I decided to upgrade from my old FX90 Delay to a newer one, the new MXR EP-103 Echoplex Delay.

I'm having trouble with it not getting enough power from my Pedal Power, not a Pedal Power 2 or 2+, the original one. My searching has found answers for the 2 & 2+ but not the original. The Owners Manual is long gone and all I can find is a Pedal Power 2 Manual online...so...

I can get the EP-103 to operate using the supplied wallwart directly into the power strip so I know that's not the issue. The issue with the Wallwart is that with the Pedal Power in the Pedaltrain I can't plug it into the AC Auxiliary due it's orientation. And I wanted to stay away from using the Wallwart.

I have all the DIP Switches set to not "ON", so that must be OFF on the 2 & 2+, for 9v operation.

Will one of the 8 Outputs will supply the proper power?

Thanks in advance!
