    Very good but not perfect

    I use it for 2 years now.
    It comes with a full tank was super package of cables, even reversing polarity (yes there is!), Cable color to differentiate (it avoids hook a 9v pedal in a hurry at an output 12 for example ...). We even have the old plugs jacks with EHX pedals.

    The dipswitchs are super convenient to have several 12v outputs. It's really useful for anyone using overdrives that respond better than 9v 12v (if they support the 12v or they crament !!!).

    Everything is explained on the back of the PSU.

    Me me she used to feed 10 pedals.

    A 9 pedals no buzz.

    10 pedals a slight buzz. Whatever the pedal plus pedal consumes mA plus the buzz is big.

    So I put a battery with an adapter (battery / jack) on my wah. A wah food that does nothing so the battery stays long ^^.

    So yes outputs are isolated, but apparently there may be some problems as indicated these discussions forums:

    "The Fame sold at MusicStore which is none other than the Biyang Pedal Power ...

    For some more scientific testing.
    I just checked all the connectivity betweens outputs with a multi meter.
    On the T-Rex supply, there is no connectivity betweens Any of the pines or Any of the outside rings.
    On the Biyang supply, all of the pins HAD full connectivity (read 0ohms on my multi meter) and the outside rings Would register a burst at about 5kohms at first touch Within a second Then go to no connectivity.

    So, I do not know what That means clustering, drank It May tell someone something.

    That means clustering is what the unit is NOT isolated. The unit HAS shared ground. The five ohms That Suggests That drops Each output is regulated. Does not this mean the unit is crap, it just puts in in the bracket with the Dunlop DC brick, Brick Artec, OneSpot and --other a-isolated units. I emailed to ask Biyang, and WAS Told the unit was "100% isolated and can do anything the Pedalpower 2 can '
    This is completely Call incorrect information from 'em. ".

    After these dates there are discussions of a few years. After is it true is it true.

    I also read on another forum a guy who measures the voltage outputs of Fame DCT-200.
    Apparently it would not be on the 9v but the 8.3, 8.5, 8.2, 8.7 etc ... As a stack anything.
    After do this is normal or not ... Yes I think (regular 9v is quite rare and expensive). Is it a problem for you to judge.

    Anyway, after it cost me € 39. She did her job really well until the 10th pedal (a does one need 10 pedals ... No I do not think but hey, it's going to force-feed me and I will reduce).

    It is great provided cables were wide possibility of voltage, the maximum mA for 250 on outputs 5 and 6 (otherwise it's 100ma 9V). We even have a 12VAC and 12VDC one.

    It is a little big, but for me it fits in my pedalboard, even at the top.
    And it's true that the entrance of the IEC power plug is a bit fragile, do not shoot like a nag or it may break.

    Good paint is not better, but seriously it is important to feed the pedals?

    In short, you get more than you pay for the switch 115v / 230v is convenient for traveling musicians (and yeah).


    If I bought it I liked it for its isolated outputs, its many output, its price and its potential for various voltages.

    After if I ever tested another power supply with the other power my pedals sound better or anything, I would come to EDIT.

    Remember not you reconnect the DCT-200 to an outlet that gives a good electricity.
    So avoid the Strip cascading 10 and plugged the DCT on the 11th multi-outlet right next to the port on your receiver. Because that Voodoo Lab or not, € 200 or € 39, it's never good.

    Extraordinary for the price

    Basically you take the voodoo lab and 9 and 12V isolated outputs, its outputs to feed sub-fuzz ... And you divide the price by four.
    Only drawback: it takes a lot of room. At this price, however, difficult to blame them.

    Good point: I feed a line even with a single 6 m5 output of this power supply '(after adjusting the trimpot on exit 6)

    perfs of "high quality, low price!

    I use this pedal since yesterday ... then I know that this opinion is worthless on the length, but like the first, I'm starting. I will not forget to add items over time.

    So I know "good" for the VoodooLab seeing in Pedalboard guitarists (I'm bass player). But now, as the Voodoo 2 is a beast race universally appreciated, as I had no money to invest for that now.

    What I like most is the many opportunities available for under 50 € and a nice mouth, indeed side dimension is 171 x 111 x 68 mm, a large tank. I like, but you may prefer something more discreet.

    The features are:

    Blue LED is on when
    115V/230V a switch on the back
    an ON / OFF button (which, I believe, is NOT the voodoo!)

    The features are:

    Blue LED is on when
    115V/230V a switch on the back
    an ON / OFF button (which, I believe, is NOT the voodoo!)
    -8x 9V DC outputs (100mA for the first 4, 250 for 5-6 and another 100 for 7-8)
    1x 12V DC-output
    1x AC-12V output
    -Max Amperage: 1600mA (what to do so)
    There is the possibility of using small cursors (DIP switch) in the animal to change the voltages as follows:
    - 1 to 4: max 60mA and 12.3V
    - 5-6: 14.5v/12v (50mA/200mA)
    -7 To 8: 4v/9v adjustable (I do not know what's the point, here's the answer: "4v/9v output is used to give an effect in lowering the dead battery voltage which can be interesting for some pedals" Alx33)

    Comes with two complete sets of cables (2x8), plus two cable jack for pedal type EH (Big Muff and Co.), one for reverse polarity and two colored red and blue, which may have a specific purpose other than as- be colored, but I'm missing (again, if somebody knows what it is).

    In addition, each output is isolated, so it's quiet noise level, buzz or whatever it is, there is nothing to report. That's what made me choose this model rather than the latter Fame "chrome tank."

    In use, in my pedalboard with a EBSMulticomp, two Behringer (BEQ700 and BUF300), two Boss (UT-2 + DS1) and a big muff, I can only bow to the work of Musikstore and FAME. That is excellent, and besides, it looks strong, I jumped on it several times to see ...
    49th to nine, is a must, no more no less.

    Level regret not 18v (still the solution of the Y cable that I have never seen in stores or on the net).

    Er, that's all. The most fastidious may find fault with, I have no doubt;)
