Carl MartinDC Factory Pedal Power Supply Gray
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Carl Martin’s gray DC Factory is a pedal-power unit with five isolated 500 mA supplies. Each supply has two output jacks, creating ten outputs in total: eight 9V DC and two 12V DC. One pedal can use each isolated supply, or two pedals can share its paired jacks when their combined requirement stays within 500 mA. The unit is designed to provide clean power without radiating hum to wah pedals or certain analog drive pedals, and it can be used on a pedalboard or by itself.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Pedalboards that need isolated power for up to five digital pedals.
- Mixed digital and analog pedal setups where each paired output stays within its 500 mA supply limit.
- PedalTrain PT-VDL-MK boards, using separately obtained mounting brackets.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Setups where either pair of pedals on one supply requires more than 500 mA combined.
- PedalTrain PT-VDL-MK mounting without separately obtained brackets.
