Which Pedal Power brick for this combination?

Hi, new user here. It's been a challenge to find the specific info on whether I'll have enough power outputs for this combination so I hope someone here can help. It seems like the Pedal Power 4x4 or the x8 should do the trick if I'm not mistaken. Either way, can someone confirm which Pedal Power item(s) would work for all of the following?

Digitech Whammy DT
Line 6 DL4
Line 6 MM4

Then the following standard power 9v pedals:
Boss TU-3
EarthQuaker Devices Bit Commander V2
TC Electronic Spark Booster

Please let me know if I can provide further info. Thanks very much for your help!

You'll want to choose a supply with at least two 12VDC high current outputs as the DL4 and MM4 use 12VDC (or 9VAC).

I recommend either Pedal Power 4 x 4 or Pedal Power 3.

Hope this helps!

Thanks! I was leaning toward the 4x4 since I’ll have the Whammy in addition to the two Line 6 modelers. I’ve been reading that the MM4 and DL4 require something way lower than the 9VAC 1200mA as they show in the back of their housings so needed some confirmation. I’m not the clearest on the specifics of the DC vs. AC specs and how that aligns with this so just exhibiting some caution with not wanting to fry my pedals, haha.

Right on.

Yes, the DL4 and MM4 each can be powered with 9VAC or 12VDC and each has an actual current draw closer to 200mA (1200mA is merely the capacity of their originally supplied power adapters).

Cheers!
