CIOKS DC7 Pedal Power Supply, Limited Edition Red (Gear Hero HQ Exclusive)

I used the screw template and mounted it under my pedaltrain metro 24 and it does not touch the ground, which was my biggest concern before the purchase. I have 9 pedals linked to it and there’s no noise and no power issues

Its expandable, but each port has a ton of different power options, even for power-hungry digital pedals.

Exactly as advertised. It is quiet, well-built, and delivers. The cables supplied are appreciated though they do not supply cables, 8800 or 1002, that split or join. I had to order them from Sweetwater.com. Not expensive, just another task before getting things setup right. In all, a really nice product and I definitely recommend.

If you own a Quad Cortex and are looking for an alternate power supply, this is the one! Please bear in mind you will need 3 8800 parallel adapters to power it, but Cioks will release a small device called Crux that will be connected to the 24v output and feed direct power to the Quad Cortex. The power supply fits underneath a Pedaltrian Metro 20 or 24 with some velcro and becomes super convenient. I find it a little pricey, but wouldnt power my Quad Cortex with any unit.

I originally was using a Donner power supply, but one day my BOSS pedal that was plugged into it. Stopped working? I couldn’t figure out what happened? I tried to fix the pedal, but no matter what I did, it just wouldn’t work anymore. After doing research. I found out the Donner power supply does not offer isolated power. It’s basically a daisy chain, so I figured somehow the power supply fried my pedal. I didn’t want to risk damage to any other pedal, that’s when I researched other better pedal power supplies. After a lot of research I went with the Cioks. Just for a laugh I decided to plug my broken BOSS pedal, and to my shock it worked again! It was like the Cioks gave it the jolt it needed. I also noticed all my other pedals seem to sound stronger like they too are getting more power. I’m am very happy with Cioks. I know it cost a lot, but as they say buy once, cry once. Save your pedals and yourself some headaches, and buy the Cioks. You won’t regret it.

Greatest power supply EVER! (In fairness, I think the Strymon Zuma is basically the same tech) I cant tell you how many pedals Ive either ruined or written off as garbage because I apparently didnt understand how electricity works. :). If you use pedals, 90% of noise issues are because of power. STOP WHAT YOURE DOING! Just buy one of the CIOKS units. The headaches that it will prevent or fix are worth its weight in gold. Not having to worry about extra noise or finding the right transformer is saving me so much time and energy... It is honestly the best piece of gear I own (after my guitar and Boomerang pedal). As for which CIOK model... Ive researched them all pretty well and the DC7 is the best overall unit. 600ma per output will handle almost anything. Unless you just have a bunch of analog pedals (dont require more than 100ma) or if you know your exact power needs, the DC7 will cover you for almost anything. Im a real boy, not a paid actor. Seriously, this Im not getting paid or work for them or anything.
