Love Truetone. Straight talk, not selling magic fairy dust but well-designed products. My H2O V3 is beautifully voiced, the tone control on the chorus/vibrato side is a great feature to make it play nice with any amp, the small footprint makes it an easy fit in almost any pedalboard, top-mounted jacks are a +, the switches are great and confidence-inspiring, and the power protection (from AC supplies) just shows how thoughtful they are in their design. They are truly great products at a very fair price. And here they are, telling you that you may not need to spend as much as you thought. That's class, folks.

Good info. Long time ( daisy ) One Spot user. Have a CS12 too, different board. The (daisy) One Spot currently powers my 'ambience' portion of my church board - TC Flashback, Neunaber Immerse II, EHX Canyon, Boss Tremolo, and a WOBO TBP 2 channel loop pedal = 0 noise, 0 glitches. I was concerned when purchasing the EHX Canyon, people said it was "picky" regarding power supply - No problem w/ this ( daisy ) One Spot. Great job guys, you've been powering me for many years. Thanks!

The thing that I dislike is people saying that you should never daisy chain. I tend to use isolated power for digital pedals, in case they emit ground noises from internal word clocks. I believe those artefacts may be filtered out with some simple cap/resistor combination. Also, I love the Sauron reference!

Some pedals just don't like sharing. Dunlop pedals are an example (MX-300 reverb and Echoplex for example). You cannot daisy-chain these pedals on single power supply. Fender pedals can be finnicky too. The Dunlops require a higher output power. I just went through this yesterday. Spend the money on a good isolated power supply.

I've heard from some that some digital pedals filter off the high end digital noise and dump it to ground so if you have a pedal that's sharing ground you will hear that dumped sound in the next pedal. Something similar to when you get car engine whine through your stereo when you power your device from the lighter plug. Just another thought.

So if we power say 3 digital pedals with 3 different power adapters, and then connect the pedals to each other using standard patch cables, there won't be noise? 2. Also The adapter has no ground prong (only 2 prongs and not 3), so where is the ground connection? A standard power cable has a 3rd prong which is ground right? but the adapter has only 2.

The pedals that make noise are due to inadequate filtering on the power supply. Digital pedals rely on an internal clock to run the DSP chips. This clock is running at a very high frequency beyond human hearing. If the circuit is not carefully designed/filtered to prevent a phenomena called "heterodyning," (which is the combining of two high frequency signals to produce a lower frequency, usually harmonic content bleeds down into the audible range) then you get the noise you demonstrated. It is also possible to get noise with pedals that take incoming 9VDC and convert up or down to a different voltage. Same issue with lack or improper designed filter components. This is why pedals like these need their own isolated/dedicated PSU to prevent these noises/perturbations from traveling on the incoming power lines to other pedals. There are also power line filters that go between the daisy chain and the pedal to reduce the noise traveling on the incoming power lines back through to the other pedals. It is a simple common mode choke designed to bleed any high frequencies to ground, reducing the noise, but some is still passed back through the lines at a reduced dbu level. I'm just a bass player with an affinity for electronics! 😄

My board has a pair of OneSpots, and I own a couple extras. I use them for lots of gear, not ONLY pedals. The BOSS BR RECORDER and lots of other home audio gear appreciate a solid, reliable 9VDC power supply. Great product. What I wonder is if the noisy high current pedals have some kind of power supply INTAKE design such as a DC to DC convertor, RATHER THAN A STEP DOWN AS THE VIDEO SUGGESTS, that may in fact be injecting noise outside the pedal. DC to DC convertors are typically silicon parts (smt or dip socket chips) that take a variable DC voltage in and output a stable DC voltage out. DC to DC convertors typically operate by a chopping approach, which could lead to the output noise. In RF terms, the DC Chopper is actually generating RF like a spark gap transmitter would. Alternatively the DSP chips may be creating RF in the gigahertz or 500 megahertz to 1 ghz range, and some straight lines inside the circuit board could be acting as antennas that pick up the RF waves and then a single RF pulse coming in repeatedly could set up some kind of 20-100 hz current ripple out of the pedal.

From Truetone Founder & President, Bob Weil Thanks for your detailed technical thoughts about noise generated by digital pedals on a shared power supply. We're actually in agreement on most of what you wrote. When I made the video, I was trying to simplify the information so the average viewer would understand it, without getting lost in the details. Here's what I said in the video, which lightly brushes on what you wrote: "...maybe it has nothing to do with the DSP, but it seems like it does. Then again, it could also be that because some of these pedals have a little switching power supply circuit in them, that creates a ground offset with any other pedal sharing power with it. But it’s hard to know for sure. There are lots of design details that can cause noise when dealing with digital. And the “why” of it is not the most important thing anyway.” We know that if there are two digital circuits operating at slightly different frequencies, and if those differences are in the 20Hz-20kHz audio range, noise will be heard by the user... just like 2 strings on a guitar that are slightly out of tune with each other, creating a "beat" frequency. That's not the only possible source for noise, but it is certainly worth mentioning. As I concluded in the statement above, the "why" of it is not the most important thing... and most musicians don't really care. They just want to know what pedals will work on a daisy-chain and what pedals won't. Thanks for delving deeper though... always appreciated!

This might be a silly question. I’m new to the world of pedals, do I need patch cables when using the 1 spot slim adapter and the multi plug cables? Thanks for any feedback!

You need patch cables to pass audio from one pedal to the next.

Even when using the necessary adapters or inverters, is there a problem with plugging reversed polarity pedals into a daisy chain with other pedals?

There can be with certain Fuzz units.

Hi there. I know this is an old video. But I was searching for solutions to the problem of my pedal board and stumbled on this video. I found it strange why I didn't saw this before cuz I'm a subscriber. I have a popping sound when engaging my pedals. I also have sizzling sound when cranking up my volume. I play at church as a member of a worship team. I have the following pedals: - T3 Boss tuner - Mooer Yellow Comp - King Of Tone clone - Joyo California amp sim - DD7 Boss Delay - Neunaber chroma Chorus - Digitech Supernatural and a Jp Jr vol pedal. And I'm using the daisy chain and the 1 spot adapter for them all. What could be de problem? I'll try so learn from this video about replacing the way the daisy chain can be connected. Thanks in advance.

Try starting with 1 pedal, and then adding 1 effect at at time to your chain, and see when the noise starts. You may need to check out a ground isolated power supply like our 1 SPOT Pro series.

You can use 1 or all 5. Just make sure the metal ends are not touching each other, or a metal surface.

Hi, I'm having some problems with my one spot. I currently have 7 pedals (daisy chained) which are pretty cheap ones but there is this humming and almost small beeping sound coming through my amp, I thought this would be my digital delay, I took it out of the chain and there's still noise. I have these pedals: (not in signal chain order) Flamma Modulation (11 effects), Sonicake vol/wah, Tc electronic delay, Flamma comp, cheap Vintage overdrive, rowin noise gate, and a lekato looper/tuner. Are there any recommendations to stop this noise altogether, maybe it's another pedal? I'm not sure but it is very noisy. Thanks!

I found that I am getting too much noise from my One Spot. I tried using the One Spot to power my Boss TU-3 tuner pedal. I don’t need the tuner…I’m simply using it for its internal buffer because my multi effects pedal (Line 6 Pod Go) needs one if you want more clarity. When I switch to a battery, it is better. I think the One Spot is a great product, but for some reason it doesn’t work in this situation. I have tried different locations. Any ideas? Thanks!

@@TruetoneFX I bought it around a couple of years ago. The only other thing that happened was when I was powering the same tuner and an overdrive pedal with a daisy chain . I play a boss katana amplifier, and when I changed channels with it own switcher, , I could hear the ticking of the delay effect. To rectify this, I quit daisychaining and powered my overdrive from the tuner.

I had to remove mine from the pedalboard. I had the One Spot chained and powering a Digitech Drop pedal, and 2 EHX pedals: Synth9 and Mel9.. This was generating an oscillating noise.. Once I changed to individual supplies thru a power supply block, dead quiet.. I am not saying is the One Spot.. because it only happens when I chain these EHX pedals..

Hey Ernesto - Thanks for your feedback. If you like guitar synth effects, check out the Boss SY-1 Synthesizer. It has tons more sounds than the EHX pedals you mentioned, sounds amazing and works on a daisy-chain, like most Boss effects. Honestly, it's one of the most fun pedals I've ever tried! - Bob

In 30 years of playing guitar and bass, I have never once needed "isolated" power for my pedalboard, because I only use pedals with well-engineered power supply that aren't noisy. If any pedal in my chain made any noise other than the noises I want, it would be immediately pulled from my signal chain and returned to the seller. My current pedalboard has 13 pedals, all on a daisy chain, from Boss, tc electronic, Digitech, and One Control BJFe. The only pedal I've ever owned that couldn't be powered from my daisy chain was a particular germanium octave fuzz with a reverse internal polarity, but regular wiring, a Voodoo Lab Proctavia. For many germanium fuzz pedals, reverse polarity is simply the way they operate.
