Pete	Re: power supply Scott, I just built up a power supply with an universal tapped transformer which supplied a couple of voltages, used a rectifying bridge, put a large cap across the + and ground, ran some regulators of the 9V and 12V taps, filtered it with small caps (couple of pico farads) and into some speaker terminals. Then connect as many effects as you like. Just have to be careful of ground loops. That powers my DS-1 and pretty much any other pedal. It's been working for years. Oh, and don't foget a fuse on it!
