Started reworking my pedalboard. I got this all wired up but something is fouled and I realized that I want the OC-2 in series with everything else and the Supercollider in it's own loop (A->Bypass). I think the foul up is occurring because the OC-2 is an ACA pedal and needs to be in line with it's daisy chain. Either way this should be how it will come out in the end. Aside from the Bass MuRF and it's expression pedal,...this is every pedal I own.
It's getting too late to stay up any longer and troubleshoot. I need to pick up some more George L's plugs tomorrow anyway. I like the riff raff on my dinner table though.

yah...... you have many, many options in the power supply arena.
DC Brick is a good cheap choice.

Here's mine.
1. Artec 6 bands EQ/ Tuner: I only use it for tuning.
2. Bass Big Muff: use for distorted sound, apparently
3. ODB-3: Actually, I use this one for clean boost/ EQ. It's pretty darn good, if you ask me. Better than using it for overdrive, IMOP.
4. DOD Bass flanger: Normally, I use it when I do "clean" solo. Other than that, I stomp on it when I feel like to.
5. Guyatone NR-2: It's a noise suppressor, since most of the time I use passive bass, it helps though.
But I rarely use this board anymore, since I didn't gig regularly as I used to.
Now, I just use Boss ME-50B for most of the time. It's just easier and It didn't sound so bad.

Oh yeah, another Artec.
Have you noticed that if you have too much gain on afterwards when using the tuner the LEDs will create an audible tone or humming type thing when they are on?
Another change last night at rehearsal, swapped the Boss phaser out for my sweetheart, the Morley. (lushest phaser I've ever heard). Looks like my OC-2 won't be here in time for my gig on Saturday. 
I'm gonna have to use the whammy for octaves that night.

Would you be able to put up any sound clips of the Leeds? I'm really curious about their sound on bass.
I've got one of those SoundLabs power bricks too, and haven't had much problem with mine. Last gig I played I had some grief from the soundman, but seeing as the hum he could hear only came through his headphones in the PA and not through the amp, I'm blaming him for that!
For the price you can't beat it, I'm sticking with it until I have the money for a Jim Dunlop DC Brick, or something similar. £80 is a lot though!
Here's my latest board. I built it to match the DIY amp I made a bit ago in a natural oak finish. Pictures of the amp here if you care to see them: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=602691
It's pretty simple and has most of the same things as my last pedal board: build in mic stand to save space on stage, two tiered build, holes in one side for the power and mic cables. This time I put the power supply and my wireless under the shelf. I also put the two switch controller that turns the FX on our PA on and off on my board, as I'm the one who does that in between songs when we use our own PA, which is about 75% of the time. This time I tilted the shelf a little bit so I can see right down on those pedals when I'm standing in front of it. I also went against the manual and put my EQ in front of the VT Deluxe so I can use it for slight tweaks in my sound depending on the room w/o having to mess with the presets on the VTD and still use the balanced output on the VTD to get back to my rig, which just uses a power amp as a head. We'll see how that works out.

I have the gator case designed for some kind of amp head. The pedal board and my suitcase with my strap, cords and all the extra crap I have fit in it perfectlly. It's got a pull handle like a carry on suit case. Works out pretty well actually...
hurm. VERY cool. i'm such a goof adding velcro'ed on risers in the back row of my PT-2 was pretty much my limit.
super envious of y'all wood working skilled peoples. that's a nice cab too!
wanna build me a fEarful? give you 20 bucks!!
