I've had my eye on a Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 Plus for a while as a clean, regulated power source for my main board is becoming more of a necessity as I add more pedals. Along with quality cables, devices like this really help to cut hum and extraneous noises while keeping pedals consistently supplied with enough power to operate at their peak. The company is extending its product line with the recent announcement that Pedal Power ISO-5 is now shipping. This is a good option, although perhaps not a necessity, for those with smaller boards.
According to the company press release: "With 5 completely isolated, regulated, and filtered output sections, it's the ultimate compact solution for small pedalboards, rack shelves, or as an additional supply for larger boards. Based on the same technology that made the original Pedal Power the industry standard, Pedal Power ISO-5 keeps digital effects and even the most sensitive vintage and boutique analog pedals dead quiet.
Pedal Power ISO-5 delivers clean, consistent power even with poor AC line conditions found on stage. Unlike wall warts that create a large hum-inducing magnetic field, or daisy-chained digital switching supplies that generate unpredictable transients, Pedal Power ISO-5 uses a custom designed, audiophile quality toroidal transformer for stable, pure power. Plus, its completely isolated output sections eliminate ground loops and unwanted interaction between effects, giving you noticeably improved tone, dynamics, and lower noise.
Features include 3 standard 9V outputs, a dedicated 18V output, and a unique 9/12V output designed to run modern, high-current digital effects from TC Electronic, Eventide and Line 6. Pedal Power ISO-5 comes with a detachable AC power cord, all the necessary pedal power cables, and is handmade in the USA with a five-year warranty"
Pedal Power ISO-5 MSRP: $160.00
