So dumb but I can’t figure this out AC/DC

Post by Pacomgl »

I’ve been running 3 pedals off my skb powered pedal board which states “9V DC Regulted Outputs”

BOSS DD-6 9VDC 55mA
Whammy DT 9VDC 288mA
CAE Wah 9V AC! 6.9mA

I’ve been powering them all with the supplied jumper lines. I’m looking to purchase a new board and I need a power supply but that AC for the WAH has me a bit confused, to be honest, I never even paid attention before and now I’m not sure what I need for power.

Do I use a barrel connector with a switched polarity?

In fact, your CAE Wah simply uses "standard" power (the same as the other pedals you've specified).

Cheers!
