My diy building is starting to slow down now and one of the first things I wanted to do was to build my own 9v power supply for my guitar pedals.
I've read a bit about floating earth? And I'm none the wiser about what this is other than trying to replicate how a battery works.
Pedal wise I have a tuner, vox wah wah, whammy pedal, line 6 MM4 pedal, giga delay.
I'm replacing the line 6 modulation pedal for 3 pedals I've made, Univibe, MXR flanger and Phase 90.
I may add a chorus pedal at some point as well. So I would need at least 8 x 9v.
The line 6 is 1200ma, korg DT-10 is 43ma, Vox wah wah 54ma, DD-20 = 200ma, whammy pedal = 750ma, univibe = 100ma or 200ma, MXR flanger = 200ma, phase 90 = 5ma
I'm happy to wind my own transformer as from what I've read it's best to have several secondaries.
So it looks like I would have to have 6 at 200ma and two at 1200ma or 1500ma just to be safe.
Could anyone pitch in to this please as I would like to know the best way around this.
Good clean 9v Dc please.
