Aloha all,

I am hoping to get some help from the group on how to best setup my first pedalboard. I have never really been an effects guy, but took the plunge recently because, well, all of the coolest stuff I want to try out, does not come in rackmount : /

The power requirements are my main focus of asking for help, and will gladly take any advice on how to best route everything :)
I have a Cioks DC7 power supply (Thanks Zach/Sweetwater!) and just three pedals:

1. Line 6 HX Effects.
2. Supernova Nobelium.
3. Effectrode La-1A Comp.

When I have been testing everything out, I have just ran everything to the Demeter input, but my board came in the mail yesterday, and would like to find the best setup.
The Nobelium and Compressor will be set and forget 99% of the time.
The Effectrode comp manual says NOT to use any other power supply besides the one that came with it, so I'm not sure if I can use the Cioks power supply.

I have two effects loops available on my setup, one on my Trickfish Bullhead .5K amp, and one on the Demeter HBP-1 preamp that has a level adjust for send and receive.

Thank you in advance all!

J
