VOODOO LAB PEDAL POWER AC User’s Manual Introduction The Voodoo Lab Pedal Power AC is the finest power supply available for AC powered guitar effects and accessories. It’s the only professional solution for powering vacuum tube overdrives and effects, MIDI footcontrollers, and high current digital processors--without cumbersome and noise inducing wall warts. The Pedal Power AC provides four isolated outputs, two 9VAC and two selectable between 9 and 12VAC.
System Unit Description 1. AC mains auxiliary. Note the 200 watt maximum rating. 2. AC mains power input jack. This is a standard “IEC-type” connector. 3. Power indicator. This LED indicates the Pedal Power AC system unit is operating. 4. 9VAC output jacks (2). Each output provides up to 600mA. 5. Selectable 9VAC/12VAC output jacks (2 sets). Use either jack from each set to select the correct voltage. Each output provides up to 1200mA. AC vs. DC “DC” stands for Direct Current.
Connections The Voodoo Lab Pedal Power AC has four outputs and six output jacks. These accept barrel type connectors and have a 2.5mm center pin. The two individual 9VAC outputs on the left will provide up to 600mA each. The two pairs of jacks on the right will provide up to 1200mA each at either 9VAC or 12VAC. Select the correct voltage by using the corresponding jack. You can’t use both 9VAC and 12VAC from the same pair at the same time. It won’t work. Don’t even try.
Protection Your Pedal Power AC is designed to be fault tolerant. This means that if you try to power a defective device or use a bad cable, it will simply turn off that output until the problem is corrected. Similarly, if you try to power something that requires more current than the Pedal Power AC can provide, it switches off only that output. As they say, “the show must go on!” Frequently Asked Questions Why doesn’t my effect power up? Many guitar effects are switched on by plugging into the input jack.
