Does your pedalboard really need a power brick like the 1 SPOT Pro? 

Love seeing a competent person speaking with pride about their creation!

Well, you've sold me on the CS7. Gonna get one as soon as I can. I really like Bob's down to earth demeanor and straightforwardness. Kudos man. You've made another customer.

Thank you for such a comprehensive explanation and demonstration of the CS bricks in context with pedals.

Just recently bought a CS7 and installed it under my Pedaltrain Classic Jr. Love that it comes with mounting brackets in the box, and everything is reasonably priced. Thanks Truetone!

Just ordered a CS12. Bob is a sincere, very nice guy. He helped me almost 15 years ago with an issue on a pedal he had designed for another company. Gracious and caring. Although I don't use many of his pedals, great respect for his business practices.

These guys have been amazing ! any time I've had questions they have been right there and even helped me with a mod to one of the original Route 66 pedals. I cant say enough good stuff about the True Tone / Visual Sound people. I may just finally replace my One spot and daisy chain with CS-7

I've got a CS12 and I couldn't be more pleased. Never had a problem and sometimes I forget to turn it off after a session and it has no detrimental effect on it at all. All those output options are a real blessing.

yep. im on board with you guys now too. or rather... your on my board with me now! thanks for a brilliant product.

I hooked up my new layout today with the CS 12. I thought my board was quiet with a one spot , with CS 12 notta single hint of noise. I called you guys today for some info and was pleasantly pleased with how nice and helpful you guys were. Thank you very much.

This power supplies solved a huge issue for me. Currently, I am running all my 9vdc pedals with a One Spot and then my 4th gen Digitech Whammy with it's own separate power supply. I also intend to buy a Nova Delay, which needs the 12v just like the pedal you have displayed in the video. So that made me worry about having to run three power bricks. With this power brick, I can run all my pedals and only have to worry about using one main power cable. Thanks for the innovation. This is definitely my next buy!

Such detailed explanation plus the price point, just convinced me to go with this over the main competitor.

Great vid. Buying a CS7 tomorrow and a Pedaltrain Jr. for my Tech 21 Acoustic Fly Rig and Boss AD-2 Acoustic Preamp. Never owned pedals or a pedal board before.

Got My CS12 awhile ago and I'm blown away. So much power for all my pedals and I'm running 5 at 18V (some with doublers). My board and I couldn't be happier!

Just got a CS12 from Sweetwater. Absolutely love it! I have a couple of normal OneSpots as well. Y'all are a great company!

Very clear and helpful video. Thanks!

About to get a cs7 next month. You guys are passionate at this!!!

I’ve never been a pedal guy. In all my 45 years of playing, it was always guitar into amp, with the occasional wah pedal. But, a few months back I purchased a single pedal, a Wampler Dual Fusion and since then I’ve become hooked! That pedal led too a Wampler Gearbox, Faux Spring reverb, an Ethereal, and a Boss SD-1. I’m sure they’ll be MANY more, as I just purchased a Ceriatone ODS. (Dumble clone - Heavenly!!!) I plan on creating an entire board just for that amp, and the other pedal board I mentioned above goes along with my “magical” Marshall JMP #2204. (early version of JCM 800) and I’m telling ya’, everyone who plays that amp wants to buy it. It has something that the others do not. 😎 So, instead of running 9v batteries and having some pedals that only take wall wart power, I decided on two CS-7’s to power all my power hungry goodies and I must say, I’m really impressed at just how quiet my pedals are now. It’s a night and day difference! 🔥🔥🔥 So, yes folks, I am now a believer and Truetone has another convert! Believe the hype, as these are terrific! Especially for the price! A simple no-brainer… Best! ✌🏼

Sold! Great demo! I was going for the Strymon before watching this. Awesome

Sold me on what power supply I will buy, I started with a 1 spot many years ago and keep a few around for a back up and playing at home with non pedalboard stuff thanks truetone ordering now!

Im sold, just ordered a cs7, great video and super cool guy. Definetly feel like this is the best powersuply out there!

Dudeeeee! This is tight! I'm getting me one of these! Great demonstration video. I wish more pedal companies did this. Props to you sir! :)

This video has totally got me wanting a CS7. My go-to was always Voodoo Lab stuff, but this seriously looks like, not only, the biggest bang for my buck, but the best i can get period. I'm pretty much sold here.

Well that settles it, my new power supply is going to be cs 12. Exactly what I've been looking for! It's great to see a company put this much care and pride into what they do and to stand by their products.

1 spot is all i need in my board atm with 13 pedals in it..cant believe how it is still working after all the beatings it took from the gigs. maybe one day i might try one of these if i ever needed one..truetone is the best!

Wow, and wow! Think I'll be upgrading my brick, I've run into running out of outputs since I need 2 spots to power my 18v pedal with my current supply. Been having to deal with batteries for the loss of outputs, looks like that problem will be going away soon! Thanks for making something great again Truetone!

Sold me on this. Great job. Thanks for keeping it cheap!

Outstanding psu! Best one in the market I've got to say. I power all my 12 pedals using my cs7 (i dc chained some of my them). Total improvement in my rig. Noise-less, 12/18volts options, and easy to install and a lot less expensive. I'll prolly get another one, or the cs12 in case i expand my pedal board. Thanks truetone!

I really like these products. They are well thought and just works great. I have the CS7 for my Pedaltrain JR and I have the length of the power cables I need from the box. The product is fantastic and is affordable too compared to other products! Great job guys! :D

Well done! Awesome Product. I have the CS7 under a Pedaltrain Classic 2, powering 12 pedals.

Your attitude about engineering and development reminds me of Hartley Peavey. He said “To be better, you have to be different.” You make really great products.

Must agree with fellow tubers, your presentation was damn good, another customer made, just visited local music store site and came across this. Just what the Doctor ordered.

Bob - so cool to see you! We talked on the phone maybe 15 years ago when I had some questions about my Visual Sounds H2O and Rte 66 pedals. Were you in high school then? 😝 Very helpful video. The CS7 probably can handle everything I could dig up using a couple of daisy chains and isolated supplies for any question mark pedals. A new overdrive pedal was generating noise on a One Spot setup... I suspect it’s the “soft switch” it uses.

you guys do it the best thank you

Sold. I've been shopping around for a power brick and I've read and watched videos and been unimpressed with either quality or price. After seeing this I'm getting a CS7. Thanks for putting out quality gear that's affordable for working musicians and those who's expendable income doesn't exceed most people's gross income Edit: I will also be checking out more truetone gear. You guys seem to always be putting out content for musicians and it's always done top notch. This seems to be your M.O. and I'm sure your gear is no different. Thanks!

This is the best power supply EVER! it runs my whole board including EHX Hog and Whammy.. It cost me to find out that Gig rig wouldn't run my setup... This is awesome and will be ALWAYS endorsing it at the festivals and shows I play on. Big thumbs up guys! Now, how about supplying an affordable pedalboard too? 1m x 35cm with lid would corner the market... Just awesome... lol :-)

A great video, and great products! I already own a CS-6 which I used to power a complete NUX pedal board, and it's amazing how well it works, I'm impressed with the quality and completely sold on these power supplies! I am currently working on building a massive Fender pedal board using most of the pedals on the current line that Fender offers, along with older, discontinued pedals from Fender. When it's complete, there will be a total of 18 pedals, including a loop switcher, and tuner. I did speak with someone there a few days ago about this, and determined that I will be able to use a CS-12 with two V189 adapters to give me 11 outputs from the CS-12, but I will still have to daisy chain some of the pedals on power cables. to supply power to all of them. On your site, the only daisy chain cables I see are meant to be used with the 1 Spot. Do you have daisy chain cables for any of the power bricks? If not, Can you recommend someplace where I might find these? I would like to power this board with just one brick if possible. Thank you.

My one spot is incredible. Powers my Benado board plus 4 other pedals silently. Great product.

i have a CS12 and it's the best power supply i have ever seen! I love it so far. powering the 3 strymon big guys and 9 more pedals!

of course im buying this magnificent commodity for my pedaltrain metro... cs6 of course, love the tutorials!

Great Video!

This video got me insta-subscribed. Great work!

Just ordered one of these. Needed something to power my HX stomp and Strymon pedals. Also enough power to keep everything quite and isolated. Another happy customer 👌

I've recently bought the CS12 and I almost couldn't be happier. Impressive range of features at a very competitive price and most importantly, compared to my old non-filtered non-isolated PSU which was noisy as hell, it adds almost no noise to my system!

I've been a believer in the one spot for a looooong time! I used to power my whole board off of two one spots. Just recently bought the cs7 and its amazing! If only it came out sooner I would have bought the 12 and the 7 to power my board.

16:33 top ten anime plot twists Btw. Awesome product, I'm totally gonna buy it :)

Wow, had no idea you guys used to make the Route66 and Jeykl and Hyde!!

Bought a CS7 a few days ago as I wanted something which would power my 12 volt Neo Minivent and my other pedals. I wasn't expecting such an improvement in sound quality over my old daisy chain. It's also great running the Fultone OCD at 18 volts, a pedal, I had been thinking of selling. It sounds superb now and is going nowhere! Thanks.

Looking to build a new pedal board (or rebuild my current one) but I have some newer digital pedals in the mix so I decided to look into Isolated Power Supplies in order to keep things quiet and also needed a PS that had high current rating for those digital pedals and future proofing. I looked at the Voodoo Labs units (I own some of their stuff already) but was turned off by the lack of total current draw supply and regional AC power models, unlike your Truetone 1 Spot Pro 12 CS12 which I read is world voltage / input switchable, a brilliant touch by the way and one that really sung it for me on top of the max current available and multiple output voltage options in the mix. Can't wait for it to arrive so that I can get to building everything. Congratulations on a well thought out design man! I already two standard OneSpots for daisy chaining so I know your stuff is top shelf.

Nice demo.

Thank you, I’ve been playing a while but feared pedals. Just so many to choose from snd which one should I start with. Well, I started needing pedals and the addiction began. I had an I spot for a short time but soon needed to upgrade to the cs7. Now my pedaltrain is crammed and I’m waiting for a bigger pedalboard to be delivered. I’m afraid the cs7 might not last to much longer, and my husband is just confused by my addiction. But I’m having fun and it’s good to know I have a good quality product protecting my investment.

Damn it! I'm sold.

Next purchase for sure. Can't wait to relegate my standard onespot to a backup psu. Its been wonderful for years while my board keeps growing.

After using for years 2 one spot daisy chain on my pedalboard i finally ordered the cs12.

My Visual Sound 1spot is now 12 years old and is still working fine. The stickers are all worn and torn though so I suggest providing extra stickers or maybe make them more durable that lasts long like the unit itself.

I just ordered the cs12. Looking forward to it.

Truetone selected the best possible spokesman for their company. This guy is great at his job. Interesting that he has convinced me to stick with the lowest cost product that they sell but I tell you one thing I appreciate the honesty and he also convinced me that if I ever upgrade to an isolated power supply I won’t look any further than the 1spot pro because his information convinced me theirs is the best

Thanks bud I had a daisy chain thing and I noticed performance issues that forced me to sell an Amp yet I think it was the power supply to my pedals

I think some boards can be run with two 1-Spot adapters w/daisy chain. But he's right, things have changed. I think I need a CS-12.

Just got the CS12 tonight…for a second I had the red cable running to my Dirty Little Secret 18v 5ma. It fit so looked just like a length difference…but just to be careful I made sure to use the others by size and not use the red cable…it looks like a normal with no brick…just the red seem better to point out 18v only. But I’m not sure given online info…says you can use all the others in the bag. But many are confused to use the red cable on a 9v or 18v plug at all. Better safe than sorry!

Labels on the bottom. Smart! Brackets included. Smart! Now I can have one power brick that will run all my pedals, including my Strymon Lex. No more hunting for one more open outlet.

Pay attention Truetone, you are obviously doing something right. I got about 4 mins into the vid and went off to order one online. Reading through the comments the next day I see that I am not alone. THe straight forward , no crap presentation is working well for me in the Uk.

Wanted to pop on and recommend this product. Certified by independent labs is a huge statement as a manufacturer. Just got a Cs12 that I've had on my "to do" list for like 4 yrs. Tone + Quality of Life = WORTH THE COST

Totally sold me on the CS12 for my bass pedal board, I've been looking for a supply that can handle 10+ pedals and has isolated outs

This is great! Cant wait to put my hands in one of these cs12! Trutone do I need to use any adaptor to power the M9? It takes DC and AC current right? How about the polarity?

I’ve been looking for a power supply to power all my pedals and my whammy 4 in one! This is perfect. 1 Spot forever!!!

Great video and info - thanks and will likely be buying a CS12. Any word on how "quiet" the CS7 and CS12 are from a power perspective? I was thinking of getting a couple of Strymon pedals and already have two pedals that can support 18v (but never used the 18v option as I currently don't have an 18v supply :)

I was thinking, "why the hell doesn't some company just make something simple with a lot of outputs that is switchable?" The power brick is far too few outputs and you can't even switch them. Too little for too much money, then I stumbled on this. Ordering one because you guys actually considered the end user and the way we use pedals.

One doesn't simply call a Klon Centaur "some pedals" without being killed by an avalanche of fire-breathing fanboys.

Ordered a CS12 yesterday and can't wait for it to arrive. I have mainly analog pedals but still, when i use one i have to unplug it afterwards from the daisy chain or it won't be quiet at all.

Looks like a great one. Have you ever tried it with Source Audio products such as Ventris Dual Reverb and their Reflex Expression Pedal?

The CS12 is awesome, I was worried when I bought my Two Notes Torpedo CAB. It's 12v 300MA run it without a single glitch.

Convinced the fuck outta me! got yourself a new customer.

I'm going to integrate a just-ordered 1 SPOT Pro CS7 with a Pedaltrain Classic Jr.. Can't wait to put it them through their paces!

I'm convinced. You're in Springhill? It's a short drive so I will buy directly from you.

alright I'm going to these guys for power needs now.

Getting a CS12 was one of the best decisions I've made in a while.

How to Connect multiple Pedals Tipp one Output? I am researching my Options currently and was really worried i needed Like 3x 12 Connecter Powersupplies :-) great explanations btw.

I have the CS12. Excellent power supply. My main pedalboard has 10 pedals. Two of them run on 18V and 1 of the 9V pedals draws about 350mA. At times, I have even run an additional pedalboard with some effects for my acoustic from the same CS12. It handles all of them with no problem. Highly recommended!

Does the CS12 give off any electro magnetic noise field? I am having issues with my Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 inducing noise into cables and pedals that are nearby & since this doesn't use a standard transformer - could put an end to my pedalboard noise issues!

I bought a CS-7 a few months ago.. best decision I made in terms of a power supply. That thing can handle hungry pedals for sure.. Looking into getting a CS-12 now since my board keeps expanding more.

Very interested in one of these. Do you know if the brackets fit in the Joyo RD-1 pedalboard (it’s very similar to a pedaltrain)? Also, will the CS7 work well to power (digital: 2 x 300mA pedals, 1 x 100mA, 1 x 50mA off separate outlets) and 3 way daisy chain analog pedals off remaining outlets? Thanks

Wicked product. You mention each output can provide more than stated aslong as the total combined draw is less than the max rated mA output. In this case do you think powering a TC Helicon H1 vocal pedal with the CS7 would be fine? (12v 400mA)

I hope you notice my comment, but that last (red) when you said warning warning. Can i use 12 normal 9v pedals? or does 1 pedal have to be more than 18v to get the 12th spot? im buying this as soon as possible. Really really good review on the power suply!!

The Truetone buffer you mentioned being 18v but I have seen pictures of it where I see 9v. Is it different models or the same?

Excelente! Please tell me in wich output can I connect the DSM & Humboldt "Simplifier"?

I bought a 1 Spot about 3 months ago as a backup. I recently tried to use it and it makes a huge amount of noise with just one pedal connected. Unfortunately I can’t return it back to where I bought it. Would definitely not recommend.

That's an amazing video about so much you can do! All of that applies to the CS6 of course right?

Thanks for the great explanation. Can the CS12 power two Eventide H9s and a Timefactor at the same time? These days many people are using multiple Eventide H9 units, so it would be great to know how many can be powered. Thanks again! -Tim

Does the pedals on the right pedalboard get any noise caused by the daisy chain? I really want to get the CS7, because i can not afford the CS12, so i want to put a daisy chain in one of the outputs as you did, to power 2 or 3 pedals. Both of them true bypass (MXR bass fuzz and Aguilar Agro, and maybe a tuner). I really want to have no noise on my board, so my question is, Will i be able to put a daisy chain without getting hum? Pd: You guys make the bests products!

I choose the CS12 over some other fancy power supply. Really unique product, steady and reliable

I bought a CS12 and I am very happy with it (and with the accessories). I just have one question: I understand that the power supply can provide (way) more mA than the label says (as long as the total amps needed don't exceed the maximum) and that you are required to label the outputs... but then why have 4 different labels (100, 250, 500 and 800 mA) ? Oh and a request... could you hook up with AclamGuitars to create mounting brackets for their boards...?

Any tips on finding which pedals are incompatible with sharing power? I'm currently splitting power between a MXR Analog Chorus (13mA), TC HOF Mini (100mA), Joyo American Sound(3.8mA), Rowin Looper (not sure yet, waiting for email response) and Mooer Hustle Drive (6mA) from one 200mA output as the total of that is less than that. My PolyTune is also popping even though it's completely isolated, really strange. Not sure what's going on :(

Hi True Tone, Im trying to build a small board with a Zoom MS50G, Digitech Drop, SD 805 overdrive & a boss TU3. Can the 1spot wall plug handle the power requirements or do I need the CS6? Thanks

Excellent review, really helpful its a minefield out there choosing the right power unit. Cheers

Great info. I've been a fan of Truetone/Visual Sound products for some time. I use a decent toroidal based brick but power requirements mean I've been looking around for something with more juice, I'll certainly look at the CS12.

This is great for value. I thought it cost more than $200 but it is actually affordable. The color coded cables are awesome. I wish each inputs has its own light that could tell (maybe color changes or it dims) me if I’m powering a pedal under mA. I have a considerable cheap power brick that does that but doesn’t power my whole pedal board sufficiently. So maybe when making version 2 of the cs pro, you could put that feature. I know the pro probably won’t even go under power but just saying. It doesn’t hurt to be there and also, the lights can provide a light source which looks cool in a light deprive settings.

Very useful video, thanks! I have ten pedals, all 9v, one 18v on an Aclam board. How wide is the CS12 please? I would put it in the inbuilt bracket under my Aclam board which can accommodate a power supply of up to 20cm/8" in width. Thanks!

Can the multi-plug 8 cable be plugged directly into the Pro to power additional pedals? Wasn't able to see if that's what you did at the end

I got cs12. Absolutely beast!!! Can handle a lot and not even get hot. Question, can daisy chain all my 4 overdrive with only one connector and which one I should use to do it. Thank you!

Hey there! I've seen two vids of yours in which you say that an M9 can be powered by one of the 9V 500mA plugs, directly. On other sites, I'm reading that I also need to use the polarity reverse cable. Is this true?
