CS6

I have to admit this was a reluctant purchase it's a lot of money for what it does, at least that's what I was thinking at the time. I'm a serious pedal junkie I run 16 into my home recording rig, with a mixture of analogue and digital pedals. I've been using a mix of wall warts and cheap PSU's. However I was getting issues with some TC electronic and Digitech pedals being noisy or tripping the PSU on starting. I was sceptical this unit would fare any better than my previous attempts trying to reduce the number of power cables on the cheap. I was wrong I've used the CS12 to power all my digital effects an 18V booster and wah and run the distortion/fuzz/overdrive off the Donner PSU the difference is simply astonishing and unexpected. I can only assume a number of the pedals were not getting sufficient current and/or didn't like sharing a common ground connection. The effects are just that little bit more vibrant and 100% noiseless. I didn't think I had a noise issue until now the improvement in clarity is unbelievable. I have also tried some pedals that had been retired because I thought components had failed but on the isolated supply are fine. So rather than this being a dull purchase it's brought life to my rig and resurrected some old friends. If your having issues with digital or fussy pedals this PSU is likely to be your solution, check on their website for a list of compatible pedals if your lucky enough to own some of those really expensive boutique pedals, I believe a few are not supported. I'm a convert it's worth every penny.

Perfect

I rarely write product reviews but this power brick from True tone REALLY deserves a shout out. Over the years I've bought various power supplies for my pedals but have yet to get a silent fx chain & just thought I'd have to live with it. In particular, some fuzzes or distortions can have extra noise when ramped up or even put in front of a particular amp - the Hudson Broadcast for example could never be fully used because of the electronic noises coming off it as soon as I switched on. But now..all is sweet, no more rearranging the order, no more 'only for this amp, those for that amp, not that pedal & that one together '. Of course I still get the gain hiss or slight hum but that can be adjusted. I wouldn't have believed it until I heard it for myself.I'm going to be trying out old pedals I'd given up on & new signal chains for some time now.Brilliant product

A great find. Bolts on to the under surface of Pedaltrain pedalboards (there are some compatibility specs on this, though not clear on use with other pedal board brands) so does not take up space needed for pedals. Plenty of outputs with voltages including 9/12/18V and scope for expanding the number with the cables all provided in the box. Install and forget about it! Pedal board is then ready as a plug & play unit pretty much. This was certainly worth the money, though of course the original small version from a single plug is a lot cheaper.

This is the second one i have bought as my pedalboard grew. Slots in underneath fixed with metal brackets which are supplied. You have to drill four holes which you then screw the brackets into. This is an easy job. Needs to be a pedaltrain pedalboard i think so look up which board is compatible to the CS7. Gets rid of the need for all those cables,daisychains and multiple plugs for separate pedals. Also gets rid of any noise and buzzing. Excellent.

I have checked every single power source in many stores before going for the CS12…what I great choice I did at the end. It’s all you need and more, would have been great to have an adaptor from AC to DC, but hey: if you have an old Whammy this could be useful.In any case, simply go for it. Don’t spend another 150 quid on a Voodoo Labs 3, TrueTone should be the absolute standard. Plus: they include the mount, so you don’t need to spend extra money to attach it to your pedalboard (PedalTrain or not, I just screwed it to my wooden Ruach).Dead quiet, versatile, good value for the money. You won’t regret!

I have been using a power supply for my pedals for some years now, I was using another brand’s flagship model, but recently I bought a Two Notes Le Bass Preamp, when added to my previous power supply chain I used to suffer with hiss and hum when a venue had ‘dirty’ power.The Truetone has been on my board for 6 weeks now, I’ve played over 25 shows now and it hasn’t given me any issues at all.Fitting it to my Pedaltrain was very easy, it came with lots of power cables, not only in different voltages, but in different lengths too, which is great for those of us who like a neat board.I can’t find a single fault with it at all, I haven’t used every output or voltages, but from what I’ve experienced so far I can’t see me ever needing anything else.

First class product, isolated, versatile, quiet.
