What is the voltage required by the pedal?
#STRYMON IRIDIUM MANUAL PRO#
For every pedal that you are going to power via the 1 SPOT Pro CS12, you need to know the following: It is important for you to know the power requirements for your pedal. Which output and settings do I use for my pedals? That question can best be answered by looking at the following questions and notes… Utilizing a more comprehensive switching power supply solution, the 1 SPOT Pro sets a new level of efficiency for power bricks, while still meeting the needs of musicians for low noise operation, even in severe conditions where the pedals themselves may generate interfering noise. By offering musicians a solution that was more cost effective and energy efficient, and moving the market away from linear transformer-based power supplies to switching power supplies, Truetone has caused the saving of thousands of watt-hours per musician per year. It provided plenty of power with a very low noise level to successfully meet the needs of musicians. The 1 SPOT power supply was designed to replace many such external power supplies and/or batteries simultaneously. In 2000, we pioneered the use of switching power supply technology to alleviate this condition in an economically-, energy- and environmentally-conservative way. Both solutions for powering pedals were very inefficient with energy, with batteries also contributing greatly to the toxic waste stream. Prior to the 1 SPOT, musicians either used one linear power supply (a.k.a. That total current rating is roughly double the current load of the most common power brick, for a lot less money. That means the total current draw of all your pedals should be less than 1900mA.
With a CS7, the output labels add up to 1900mA total. The important thing is to not exceed the total of all the labels. With a transformer-based power supply, you can’t get away with that. For example, you can connect a 300mA pedal to a 200mA output, without causing any problems. Although we had to put power rating labels on each output to satisfy certification agencies (yes, we actually certified these, unlike most companies), the outputs can generally handle far more than the label shows. With much more space to work with, we were able to completely eliminate noise, provide total electrical isolation between outputs, create multiple voltages, and still give you the ability to use it anywhere in the world.Ī major benefit of using a switching power supply is that it can handle far more current (power being pulled out of it) than any transformer-based power supply. We took the same triple filtered switching power supply technology found in our famous 1 SPOT and scaled it up to make the 1 SPOT Pro models. Normally, you would find just a big transformer and a handful of small electronic components inside a power brick… old tech that hasn’t changed in decades and has a lot of limitations. The original 1 SPOT still works great for most musicians, but for those who need more power and versatility, the 1 SPOT Pro fills the need perfectly.” - Bob Weilġ SPOT Technology… what does that mean and why should I care? Technically, it’s switching power supply technology, which is very different than what anyone has ever put inside a power brick. “It took 3 years and lots of experimentation, but we were finally able to design a 1 SPOT Pro, using our own proprietary technology to give musicians all the features they need for today’s pedalboards. As pedal designs changed and it became more common for digital pedals to require isolation and for others to need something other than 9Vdc, I finally saw a reason for us to design a power brick.” If we were going to make one, we were going to do it our way and have features that nobody else could offer. Second, I didn’t want to make just another knock-off of someone else’s power brick. First, I knew the 1 SPOT could power just about every pedal out there, so I didn’t see the need. Even some of my own staff urged me to do it, but I didn’t want to for two reasons. “A lot of people over the years had told us that we should make a power brick.
