Daisy Chain Question

[peterjh85]

Does anyone know if anyone manufactures a daisy chain for 2 effects, or I guess really 1 effect. What I'd like to do is daisy chain my Z. Vex Super Hard On off of my Korg Pitchblack. Does 1spot make this? I couldn't find anything on GC or MF's website. Thanks for the help.

would be safe to use a regular power cable that comes with the pp2+/bbe supacharger to daisy chain off the pitchblack's power output?

sure, sounds like you want to just power two effects from one source. what are you using to power the pitchblack? if its a pedal power-type distributor, the voodoo lab cables or stompin-ground.com cables will work fine. if its a single adapter, you'll nee a female to double male cable.

Actually, I just want to power my SHO off my Pitchblack (the pitchblack has a dedicated power output). I'm powering the pitchblack using a BBE supacharger. Wouldn't I need a male-male cable since the SHO and Pitchblack output are both female. (Maybe I have my terminology mixed up!)
Thanks,

oh oh oh! yeah any male-male plug will work, as long as they fit the jack. and zvex pedals are famous for being low current drain so it should be fine. either contact voodoo lab or stompin-ground.com if you need a new cable.

Ah, that's great news. Thanks again for your help.

With a Zvex pedal you probably wouldn't even need to change the battery for a few years. It might be easier to leave the battery in there.

What would one do if let's say they get a daisey chain with more jacks than needed; How do you deal with the unused jacks?

I just tie them up and keep them as far from all electronics as possible. I'm not sure if it actually lowers the noise from them or anything, but it doesn't hurt to do so.

I've got one or two questions about daisy chains, maybe it does not deserve a proper thread fot it so I will post them here :

I've got a T-Rex Chameleon power-supply ans I'm still using the daisy-chain that was included with it.

Could someone advise me if there are more "interesting" models of daisy-chains ?
I mean : mine is cool but the long plastic cap around the plug is really big. It is so long that I ended up telling myself : there may exist shorter ones. Maybe I could save space for seventh pedal on my board...

Thanks !
