Adding a power jack to a Loop Junky

Post by pothole »

Is there any magic to adding a power jack to my Loop Junky? I remember modding my old Octane and SuperDuper pedal to have power but I did a ghetto mod...worked though. So, if anyone could walk me through it..does there need to be a resistor added? thanks.

You can just solder a DC jack to a battery clip and use some heat shrink so you're not drilling a fairly valuable pedal. Just flip the + and - terminals.

I love the smell of solder in the morning.
