8-Way Power Supply

Artec is a relatively new star in the sky of effect devices and distinguishes itself with solid quality and really interesting prices.

For example, this Cool Power Brick is interesting. 6x 9V outputs with a maximum of 100 mA each; Short-circuit protection, hum canceling, 3 blue LEDs for romantic lighting of the beloved pedal boards. All of this is housed in a sturdy metal case. The connecting cables are also included - all at an unprecedented low price

There probably is no easier way for pedal freaks to find an integrated solution for their FX Arsenal.

Very good entry level power supply that is definitely a must if you're using more than a couple of pedals in your chain. The box itself seems sturdy and should deliver enough power for the majority of pedals out there. LEDs on the side are a nice bonus that helps a lot in certain situations.

On the downside, selecting the variable voltages of 2 separate outputs with a pot feels a bit unreliable. However the greatest drawback in my opinion is the plastic low end power adapter and its cable supplying the DC 15V input to the Brick itself. The cable is pretty thin and it might be worth to wind a piece of tape or other form of protection around the parts of the cable subject to stress with frequent use as 15V adapters are not so common as 9 or 12V and you might find yourself in a tricky situation at the venue just before the gig. Also the hum cancelling doesn't work very well, probably due to cheap transformer inside the adapter.

All in all a great buy for the price and a no-brainer if you're struggling with multiple power adapters or daisy chaining. However if you have a little more to spend, I'd recommend a product with a standard mains power input and quality transformer.

Very good power supply

aZu 12.11.2020

Very good power supply station, compact, quite versatile with its features.
And durable: I use it, under my pedal board, since years long time and it still perfectly works as on the 1st day.
No hum or other noises induced into my pedals.
I am perfectly fine with it !

Power for your board

Anonymous 10.03.2014

I bought the Artec Power Brick because I was tired of using
a) batteries
b) a dasy chain
c) One power supply for each effect

I was a little afraid if the Power Brick could handle my different effects with differents voltages. Short answer: YES, it can!

It comes with a collections of different cables in different lenghts wich makes it really easy to access every effect on the board.

You can run up to 8 pedals with power supply
It has 1A max, 8x 9V/100mA and beside that 2x 6-12V flexible inputs.
With the short-circuit protection and hum elimination it is really usable.
It also has 3 LEDs wich could be quite bright and this could be really helpful on a darker stage.

I use it with a tuner, 2 Overdrives, a Wah Wah and a Tremolo without any complain.

Save money on batteries! save the planet too!

The LEDs are great on a dark stage, especially if you leave your picks on your board. It powers everything on a small board, and if you're only running analog pedals, or just want to save on batteries, this is ideal. It's really robust, will last a long time until you upgrade to a bigger board/supply.
