Worldwide 8-outlet Pedal Supply — Works on Wall Power or X-Link

The Voodoo Lab Pedal Power X8 gives you eight isolated DC outputs of extremely quiet, high-current pedal fuel wherever you take the stage — from Tuscany to Tucson. That alone is impressive enough. But considering you can feed up to a pair of X8s directly from the X-Link expansions of the Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 3 (not included) for a total of 24 outlets of VL-grade pedal power, the X8 is a sound investment in any thriving pedal landscape. Most impressive of all, the X8 is, for all intents and purposes, absolutely noiseless. This unit fuses noise-free linear regulation with advanced-hybrid DC transformer topology to create one of the quietest high-current pedal power supplies we have ever encountered here at Sweetwater. Using its included AC adapter, Pedal Power X8 gives you up to two amps (2000mA) of total current to share between its eight isolated DC outputs. Each of its outlets can deliver up to 500mA of smart current, which means safe operation for your fussy vintage fuzzes and plenty of provision for your current-hungry modern digital delays and reverbs. What’s more, the Pedal Power X8’s international switching gives you rock-solid performance on stages all over the world — as long as your input voltage stays between 100V and 240V, the Voodoo Lab Pedal Power X8 has you covered.

Zero-noise hybrid design

The Voodoo Lab Pedal Power X8 sets new benchmarks for noise, current, and weight. The secret lies in Voodoo Lab’s hybrid DC transformer design. Thanks to its 80ns polarity reversal, it outputs an extremely linear DC charge that is nearly noise free out of the gate. And that’s before its advanced computer-optimized filtering. A premium analog signal path comprised of large ceramic capacitors and organic polymer filters ensures you get top performance from all your stomps, from your high-draw digital delays to your old-school fuzz boxes.

High-current 500mA outputs

Yesterday’s pedal power supplies won’t cut it for today's current-starved modern digital stomps and modeling FX. That’s why every output on your Pedal Power X8 is rated to deliver up to 500mA of current (2000mA shared using included AC adapter). Even if you’ve got a handful of Strymon and Source Audio stomps, the Pedal Power X8 won’t buckle under pressure. Do you play vintage stomps? No problem. Each output only serves your pedals with the current they need, so there’s no risk of overloading.

Additionally, this rock-steady power source also includes an excellent set of updated PPPK-8 cabling in varying length and plug configurations, including:

  • 6 cables with 2.1mm right-angle barrel center negative plugs (18-inch)
  • 2 cables with 2.1mm straight and right-angle barrel center negative plugs (24-inch)

Wall or X-Link powered

Right out of the box, the Pedal Power X8 gives you eight isolated DC outputs. That’s plenty of juice for most travel and stage boards. However, if you expand and need more outputs down the road, then the good news is the Pedal Power X8 is future proof. Chain up to two X8s to the Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 3 (not included), and you’ve got 24 outputs to feed the hungriest full-service boards!

Worldwide operation

Globe trotter? The Voodoo Lab Pedal Power X8 gives you fuss-free performance anywhere you’re likely to play out. If you’re touring domestically or rockin’ across the pond, the X8 has you covered for any performance application.

Reviews

Voodoo Lab Pedal Power X8 High Current 8-Output Isolated Power Supply
This product came highly recommended and has lived up to the recommendation. Very compact and easy to set up on my pedalboard. Can mount it underneath my pedalboard if I need to as my pedalboard grows.
Worth the $$
I have a pedalboard with eight 9v, negative pin pedals (see pic). I originally had a BOSS daisy chain that was underpowered, then upgraded to a 1700ma Truetone One Spot which almost solved the lack of power problem, but I still got lots of noise, especially when stacking drive pedals & the compressor. So I took a gamble and ponied up the $$ for the Voodoo Lab X8. It reduced the noise by about 90% and, at 500ma per outlet, my pedals all have a good strong supply of power - no more fading in and out like with the daisy chains. It even hushed up my Big Muff, which I had believed was untamable.
At just 1" tall, it fits neatly UNDERNEATH my Pedaltrain Cassic Jr (see pic), out of sight, out of mind. I probably could have squeezed it in on top, but I like some space between my pedals. Now I get to enjoy my pedals the way they were meant to be heard and never have have to think about power problems again.
Money well spent. In my opinion, every serious pedalboard should have a Voodoo Lab power supply. I should have bought it in the first place. Would have saved a lot of time, money & frustration.
Music background: 40+ Years Experience
Does Exactly What You Need It To
Bought this to power a pretty straightforward bass rig. Super easy to use, comes with everything you need to get organized and powered, and it has performed flawlessly. It's worth the money.
Music background: Professional
Actually surprised
I was pleasantly surprised by how good of a job this power supply does to eliminate excess noise and hiss from my pedal chain. Money well spent.
Solid value
Solid, straightfoward, and reliable in a nicely compact form factor. My pedals are happy.
Music background: More gear than talent
