poor excuse to show that you have a king of tone
Some of my newer MXR pedals were shipped with a little plastic cap that covers those battery terminals
Yeah, if you have those you are great. People are becoming more aware of these things with people having more access to gear and now that people are becoming more aware of these things you will see some companies trying to help in these areas
good stuff!
Super helpful, for sure!@@josephallen241
It's very helpful!
Great advice!!! Thank you, been playing over 45 years, have hundreds of pedals and totally forgot about this possibility of shorting via the battery clip.
Thank you so much I'm actually building my fifth pedal board overall but my first one that I've ever hand built and rigged up myself so thanks for the advice. appreciate that!
Absolutely! Glad to help! Sweeeeet man! What's your favorite 3 pedals on this build for your board?
This is huge - thank you!!!
Absolutely Glad it helped!
Finally, a reason to use my roll of tape I’ve had for years!
Haha!
I know right!
Good idea. I buy my pedals used and I always check the battery compartment and there has always been a battery in there. This might be because of where I live, but I’ve been using power supplies since the mid-1980s. I used to have to buy custom made supplies.
Awesome! It is true! It's soooo important. Nice!! You must have some cool pieces of history. What's been one of your favorites?
If you do not change batteries they can be a problem. I get some people that claim batteries have a different sound than running through a power supply. I do not know what to think on that yet. I have been playing with the idea and I feel like there is a difference. I have also been noticing, depending on the battery you use, can also change your sound. I am wanting to plug into some tech to make sure it is not just my imagination haha! Sometimes that can happen.lol There seems to be a different response just like some power supplies can be better than others..
Pretty useful video, thanks man
No problem! Glad you liked it!
Thanks for the tip
Dude Absolutely! Glad it helped!
If you ever have any questions just ask away. I'll help any way I can!
Oh man . Didn't know and this info is much appreciated.
Absolutely man! I am glad it helped!
Thanks
Of course Glad to help!
half my pedals cant even take a battery, but yeah, most pedals don't disconnect the battery jack, but boss ones seem to disconnect the battery when plugging in
I do It in all my pedals, before see this. It's obvius for who understand a little of elettricity rules!
You are very smart. Not many know about this.
Thank you very much for testifying that it works! :)
Do you have any alternative from using tape? Also do you have any videos or tips on how to remove the tape adhesive from the battery connector? And do I have to tape every pedal?
Yes, absolutely! You can use heat shrink over the battery connector. It takes a littleeeee more work but comes out way cleaner.
I do not have any videos or tips for removing the tape. If you don't want to deal with the adhesive from the tape just use heat shrink.
I do not really plan on taking my tape off because I have power supplies. it is expensive to buy a power supply but you save soooo much money from not buying batteries after a while.
If you are not using the battery then yes. If the battery is just sitting there it can produce acid and ruin your pedal. You don't have to but it might cost you your pedal after some time of no use from the battery.
Good tip! I think I have the same Pedaltrain board… how does one mount the power supply under the board?
(My board is a metal frame).
Thank you! Glad it helped! Nice!!!
What kind of power supply do you have because it depends on the power supply.
Some have mounting brackets and others like ciocks just get screwed down.
I have the Truetone 1SPOT PRO CS-12.
You can get a mounting bracket for it. But You MUST be careful when picking. You want to make sure it is the right one.
Just wrap the plug with electrical tape?
Yes, so that is to protect it from the PCB. Normally pedals in general do not have enough power going through them to worry about it BUT it can happen. You have an entire metal pedal.... with the battery connector having power running through it. If that were to make the right contact in the right setting or circumstance it would be BAD. NOW that is rare but it's a possibility. If you put electrical tape on it, you never have to worry about it.
The 9v battery but doesnt last much does it?? I would have to keep buying those batteries a lot no?
Yes you do have to buy a lot of 9v batteries. I play a LOT and I get 2 to 3 gigs with them before the i need a new 9v battery. Power supplies are not cheap but you will save money in the long run.
Does this apply to Boss type pedals?
Boss pedals actually claim you do not have to. That is why they have that box. it is for that very purpose
@@josephallen241 perfect
Yes! very much so
No, boss battery plug is separate from the circuit board.
I just bought a mini pedal and it doesn't take batteries 😭😭😭
Awww man, I'm so sorry. Yeah, I almost did that and know some that do. It stinks but some pedals especially those smaller ones do not normally take batteries. I'll be honest. I used batteries for a LONG time but finally got a power supply because I realized I would save money after six months of not buying batteries. It can be expensive to buy a power supply but you will save soooo much money in the long run.
If you need any advice on guitar for something like that in the future comment away my friend. Always want to be a resource and help anyone I can!
lol I just cut them out
Same guy that cleans his pedals with a paintbrush and claims they will last 3x longer
haha!
hey.... the paint brush is a gift from the Lord! lol!
I can't help but feel that this video was mostly a roundabout way in which to showcase that you have an Analogman. I've never, ever heard of this.
TL;DR The last five words are the most pertinent. "Don't even worry about it"
Oh no not at all. I had not heard of it either. Was not something I was aware of until recently. It is rare for something like this to happen but it can.
We are always learning. Didn't want people to go as long as me without knowing about it.
We have a lot more in depth stuff on the website. You have to go so fast on social media now a days you really can't go into a whole lot of detail. Website gives in depth run downs of this kind of stuff. www.josephallenmusic.com
Btw he has an analog man. Gorgeous pedal, right?
Anyone notice the KTR in the background as well? Kindly remember, the ridiculous hype the offends so many is not of my making.
Saya belum mampu punya stombox
You do not have to have a stompbox. I played without one for a long time :) a stomp box does not make a good guitarist
@@josephallen241 saya pemain gitar gereja di pedalaman dengan sound seadanya.. saya suka menonton orang main gitar yang memakai stombox.. yang lagi viral sekarang efek valeton gp 200 dengan segala jenis stombox di dalam.. tapi biar bagaimanapun. Stombox asli memang lebih bagus
Nice man! I am a church player myself. I LOVE IT! Original is always my favorite too. I agree with you. You cannot beat an original!
I’m not sure this is actually true.
Yes, so that is to protect it from the PCB. Normally pedals in general do not have enough power going through them to worry about it BUT it can happen. You have an entire metal pedal.... with the battery connector having power running through it. If that were to make the right contact in the right setting or circumstance it would be BAD.

Some pedals do a good job from protecting from this but not all
