Musitronics Mutron III power supply question...
« on: October 08, 2009, 08:49:02 PM »
Is it possible to effectively power a Mutron III with two 9 volt leads running directly from the power supply on my pedalboard to the two internal 9 volt battery connectors...instead of using a 3 pin PS-1 power supply?

That's a great question - I would also like to know if anyone has successfully done this. When I acquired my Mutron III it had no power supply and it eats batteries like a pig. I was able to purchase a PS-1 power supply from Lingenberg Sound.

As long as the milliamp rating matches up to the pedal..I would guess at 300mA for most pedals.

The out jacks on the power supply are all 9 volt x .25A. There are also three 18 volt x .35A out jacks.
Familiar with after market PS-1's (CAE too) but wondered if you could save the $70 by going battery compartment route.
