Line 6 Echo Park pedal 9v DC powr supply

Post by idealassets »

I just bought a used line 6 Echo Park digital delay pedal. Does anyone that has one know if this pedal uses a standard 9v DC power supply polarity, such as a Roland PSA-120S, or does it require a Line 6 adapter patch such as a 1 Spot Line 6 converter; which switches the polarity from standard to reversed?

PS: this pedal is now obsolete, but I got it because of a particular tonal quality that I like on a few songs that I play.

Thank you,

Line 6 stuff uses a different power supply. I've got a bunch of Line 6 gear, and a couple extra power suppies. Look on the bottom or back of your pedal and see what it requires, and what the polarity is on the power supply is. BOSS stuff is reverse polarity with the shield hot, and the center negative.

Dane,
Than you! I looked on the bottom of the pedal and there it is. Additionally I looked on the side of the plug for my Boss 9V power supply and the polarity on the diagram matches my Echo Park pedal. It is a small label on each item, but plain enough to read it OK. I learn something new every day.

Another aspect is my Line 6 Echo Park pedal states that it is "by Tone Core", which may indicate that it was made for Line 6 by another manufacturer.

I'll look into that also.

IIRC, Line 6 is now owned by Yamaha.
