Distortion Guitar Effect
Does one guitar pedal adapter work for all guitar distortion pedals?

I have a digitech “Death Metal” distortion pedal, and I was interested in buying an adapter so it could run unlimited through an outlet, instead of constantly buying batteries. I found a pedal adapter on guitarcenter.com, and was wondering, would this adapter work for my digitech, or only boss pedals?

Thanks.

There are supposed to work for all. But I’ve found that the Boss doesn’t work on Line 6 pedals and I don’t use the DigiTech pedals.

I’d recommend the 1-Spot adapter. It works for everything I’ve found.

Also yes, adapters are way better than burning through batteries.

You might also want to look at a pedal board some day with onboard-power. Then you don’t have to deal with adapters either.

To listen to them, scroll downwards and on the left it says ‘Product Specific Media’ and click on the ones with the little horn on them.

Tell me what you think, thanks!

I have the MT- 2 i really don’t like it and would advise you to stay away from it, in my opinion it sounded like crap, its difficult to use, and not very versatile.
I have never tried the DigiTech.
It kinda depends of your preferences, go to a guitar center store and try them out with your guitar before you buy anything though. The sound is also gonna depend a lot on the amp your using.

Basically just go try em yourself.
