Power Supply Recommendations

Quad Cortex
1

Hi folks:)

I am currently building my first Pedalboard setup and I am trying to keep it as minimalistic as possible by putting my Quad Cortex and DVP5 Expression Pedal from Dunlop onto a Metro 16 Pedalboard. Since the Dunlop Pedal doesn’t require any power it is only the Quad Cortex that needs to be powered. I am currently looking for a Power Supply which will fit underneath the Metro 16 Pedalboard and has everything already built into it so that I’m basically only required to have just a single cable without a charger brick in between running out of my Pedalboard directly into an outlet. I am familiar with the CIOKS power supplies, but was hoping maybe for a more budget friendly option.

Thank you already very much in advance for you answers:)

Hi there. Plenty of topics on power supplies in this forum. This thread contains my own solution (which is not a Cioks).

Hi there, I’m very new to QC and pedalboard and I’m looking to build one too.

But I’m wondering why would you need another power supply ? If the DVP5 doesn’t need power, can’t you just use the original cable supply from the QC ?

Thanks a lot !

Thanks a lot! Will definitely be having a look in there!

I could use the original power supply, but I would like everything to be tucked underneath the Pedalboard with just a single cable sticking out of it without the bulky brick. Don’t ask me why, doesn’t have anything to do with functionality, just sheer aesthetics :joy:.

Sweetfoot makes a good power supply and will make it to your specs. I was the first person to get one for the QC and still works great. I have even older ones for HX stomp and HX Effects pedals and they still work great.

That is an interesting Freudian slip there, and I’d definitely agree on the “mashed” part.
He mashed the heck out of the 2 defective ones he sold me.
