Powering pedals

[v_c]

Whats the advantage of powering pedals using a powerbrick such as this:

Compared to using a 'regular' 9v adaptor and a daisy chain?

 

(assuming we're talking about only maybe 6/7 pedals max, and that the 9v adaptor has enough power to cope with all pedals)

except for having different output voltages, nothing, unless you get a PP2+ it will have isolated output and get rid of any kind of hum.

I have a powerbrick on my board and have never heard any hum. I think that all this talk about isolated outputs is just an exaggeration. It does have benefits with certain pedals but the powerbrick works just as flawlessly.

yeah im not saying it wont help, but it depends what kind of pedals you have, for example, when my boost was turned up over 3:00, i would pickup japanese radio stations, but the pp2+ fixed all that.
