Sooo...I just got a Rusty Box the other day. FRIGGIN LOVE IT!!!
But anyway, it's got wonky power requirements. 24v-40v DC, positive center. I use a PP2+, and I have a coupling and reverse polarity cable, typically used to power old EHX pedals. So I was all excited to plug it in..but then!
The barrel on the Rusty Box's power supply's little hole is sliiightly larger than the one in my coupling cable. Which means the little phallic thingy inside the Rusty Box's power jack has a touch more girth than most pedals.
Is it unwise to switch the barrels on the power supplies? XD

Though I'm gonna take the Dremel to it tomorrow and turn it sideways (it'll be fairly simple). I just would prefer the convenience of using the actual outputs for pedals! Nyergh.
I am in communication with Tronographic. They're researching PP2+ capabilities, they say. But I know for a fact it's capable. Someone on a different site tried calling me a dumb*** and told me all about the PP2+ (which I KNOW. I wouldn't own something like that and not know how it works...).
