TC Electronic Nova Pedals

The Nova series pedals from TC Electronic, such as ND-1 Nova
Delay and NM-1 Nova Modulator, should be powered from outputs
5 or 6 only. Set the corresponding switch away from NORMAL
and use the black 5.5 x 2.1mm barrel cable.

The exception is the NDR-1 Nova Drive, which requires higher
current and can only be powered by combining both outputs 5 and
6 using a current doubling cable. Set switches 5 and 6 both away
from NORMAL and use the black 5.5 x 2.1mm barrel cable.

Eventide Pedals

You can power an Eventide Stompbox, like TimeFactor or
PitchFactor, using a special “current doubling” cable. This is a
parallel Y-cable used to combine both outputs 5 and 6 to double the
available current. Set switches 5 and 6 both away from NORMAL
and use a current doubler adapter (not included) with the red
5.5 x 2.5mm barrel cable.

SAG Output

Outputs 7 and 8 permit you to adjust or SAG the voltage from
9V down to about 4V. To enable this feature you must set the
corresponding switch away from NORMAL. This allows you to
simulate worn batteries. This is mostly useful for transistor-based
fuzz and distortion circuits, as modern opamp designs are minimally
affected by variations in supply voltage. It is not recommended
for digital pedals.

Voltage Doubler and Current Doubler Cables

There are two types of Y-cables which will combine a pair of
Pedal Power outputs for additional capability. We call them voltage
doubler
and current doubler cables. They are available as a complete
cable, or an adapter which you connect to an existing Pedal Power
