Help... power supply related (xvive v19, tonehammer,...)

Hello guys,

 

I need a help... I'm planning to do myself a "in ear" pedalboard which will be very simple:

aguilar tonehammer - compressor (mxr m87 probably) - tuner (boss pedal tuner)

I would like to put this on a pedaltrain nano and would like to run everything through a Xvive v19 (https://www.thomann.de/gb/xvive_v19_micro_power.htm) power supply  (putting the tonehummer in the 18v input and the other 2 pedals in the 9v inputs).

Will be there enough power or is better to leave the aguilar tonehammer having it's own "power" using it's original power supply ?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

The Xvive v19 only supplies 300mA

I can't seem to find a definitely spec for the current draw of the tonehammer, but a couple of talkbass threads suggest it's 500mA

MXR 87 is only 19mA according to this site: https://effektpedaler.dk/en/product/mxr-m87-bass-compressor/

Boss TU-3 draws 30mA

So you want a power supply can can do 550mA or more. It looks like the Xvive won't cut it v19

I find 500mA difficult to believe for the Tonehammer. It's analog and has no tubes, probably well under 100mA. It works on 48V phantom power too btw!

EDIT: 7mA according to the manual:

Good find! I looked at the manual but missed that

That one'll probably be fine... It doesn't have isolated outputs though, but you probably won't need them. If you want to buy one supply now that'll fit under a nano, has isolated outputs, and don't mind spending more on the premium stuff, look up these:

  • Cioks DC5 / DC7
  • Truetone CS6
  • Strymon Ojai R30
