Whether you are an international touring musician, or a weekend warrior, you should be very concerned with
the power you are supplying to your pedals.....and because you are, the Carl Martin "DC Factory" Power
Supply was designed just for you!
With the constant addition of very 'power hungry' digital pedals on the market, we designed the DC Factory to
address that very need. Highly powered and totally noise free, the DC Factory doesn't take up too much real
estate on your pedalboard and literally weighs about 2/3 of a kilogram (1.5 lbs). To meet these goals, we had
to forget about the standard toroidal transformers and design a fully digital switch mode power supply! The
benefits go beyond ample power, the size and weight are reduced and most importantly, there is no radiation
of hum to Wah pedals or certain analog drive pedals.
Cables included:
10 x 50cm
Design idea:
Inside the attractive grey anodized
housing are 5, 100% isolated and
separated, 500 mA
power supplies, four with two 9v DC
output jacks, and 1 with two 12v DC
output jacks. These 10 output jacks
supply a massive 2500mA of pure
clean power for your effects. Most
digital pedals require somewhere
between 300-400mA of power, and
your standard analogue pedals
somewhere around 20-50mA, so you
have the option to run up to 5 analog
pedals and 5 digital pedals simultaneously! On top of that, using the
Voltage Doubler Cable, you can plug
into 2 DC Outputs (as shown in the
diagram) for 18v of power!
Pedalboard mounting:
The DC Factory is fine to use on any
pedal board or on it's own, but it is
also compatible with PedalTrain
PT-VDL-MK (mounting brackets not
included).

The DC Factory can power up to 5
digital pedals when you plug one of
each into the five separated and
isolated digital power supplies, and
also 5 analogue effects when you
plug them into the second jack in
each of the 5 power supplies, as
long as the power demand for the
two pedals in each PSU does not
exceed 500mA.
