I'm using a cheapo Korean (apparently generic) adapter. I didn't believe the guys at the store who said I didn't need a special LINE6 adapter because they just wanted to sell me the pedal. I was ready to walk, but then I figured what the hell - YOU guys plug it in here (with their cheapo adapter) and if it works, I'll take it. It worked, and I took it. It's a 9 volt AC adapter and I've had no problems so far (a few days but A LOT of hours of playing!)

Now, I'm not telling you to plug it into the pedal power. I'm just saying that what APPEARS (the writing is in Korean) to be a standard 9 volt AC wallwart-type adapter is working fine for me. If you're the type to do some research, It's US Robotics model AP-2091A. BTW, I live in Korea, so that's why the information is in Korean. I hope someone else can be more directly helpful (basically I think you can do it, but I wasn't gonna risk it myself - I made them show me BEFORE I bought it. You'll have to make your own decision). Good Luck!

Now I have a heard 3 different things - grnated the last one - about New Voo Doo Labs Pedla Power to accomodate Line 6 Boxes- I also heard you can use the older style Pedal Power w a y cable using 2 outlets on the Pedal Power is that true? I'm just trying to avoid using a surge protector outlet strip on my board- I hate the way they look overall....On a side note- what do you guys think of the NGM Pedlaboard design? I'm torn btwn that ( I don;t know if it is ATA Spec) one from Pedlaboard.com and a Calzone - which one would you recommend?

Since I last posted, I accidentally tried to plug in my DL-4 with a different wallwart. The female plug of the adapter wouldn't fit on the DL-4's male end. Upon reading, it's a 9volt DC (like battery power)adapter. The one I'm using that works, and fits the DL-4 is an 9 volt AC adapter. So, You need AC power for the DL-4, and a DC adapter's plug shouldn't even fit.

Cool thank you so much - I feel ripped off by VooDoo Labs now damn it..they said it'd power every pedal...jk Looks like it's the ugly Power Strip for me- Maybe I'll get one of those NGM boards (if they are ATA spec) and use the top shelf this to cover up the strip and power supply...Thanx.

Rai168,
I just got a NGM pedal board. If you get one you will like it. With it you can put a power strip in the box where it won't be seen, and put a pedal power supply under the riser where it won't be seen. The power supply that pedalboard.com makes does handle the line6 pedals, but costs more than the voodoo labs.

I've got a pedalboard/case, Juicebox pro, and switchbox from pedalboard.com I couldn't be happier. It does in fact have the Line 6 voltage on it as well as 9v, 12v, 18v, and a sag feature on one of the 9v outputs that you can tweak. It has 10 outputs all together and 4 are totally isolated. Contrary to what Voodoo Labs says, their outputs are not isolated. Also the customer service over at pedalboard.com is impeccable. Good luck.

Just one last thought (I hope!), the Voodoo Labs has a AC "courtesy outlet" (why the hell they call it that, I don't know). You could buy a $8 wall wart 110AC to 9AC adapter and plug it into the Pedal Power's AC outlet. It won't be the prettiest answer, but it would work.

I recommend that get the juicebox from pedalboard.com if you use the line6 stompbox modellers, it is designed to do exactly what you need it to do. I don't use any of the line6 stomp box modellers, so i'm happy with my pedal power. But due to the low profile of the pedal power (fits under the riser of the NGM pedal board) i don't think a wall wart would work well in its courtesy outlet. However, the NGM pedalboard has a ready made, concealed place for a power strip and wall warts to hide.
