Question Powering a Whammy IV

Sign in to disble this ad
Is it possible to use a power supply a la Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 2 with the Digitech Whammy?

The whammy requires 9V AC, whereas the PP2 only has DC outputs. I think there are some other power supplies that have an AC output (the TRex Fuel Tank might IIRC), so that's what you'd have to look for.

Sure, just power it with the wall wart via the courtesy AC outlet. The Whammy is AC, not DC.

Edit: Bigchief'd!

Sweet, thanks a bunch! All this AC/DC stuff confuses me.

Do you know by any chance if the fueltank can be mounted beneath a Pedaltrain PT-2 the same way as the PP2?
