Product Specifications

  • Isolated power outputs
  • Highly efficient with modern switch mode supply architectures
  • World-wide voltage-compatible DC brick
  • Limited lifetime warranty
  • Power outputs: 3A center negative output, 12 or 9V selector switch, three outputs rated at 9VDC, 500mA

FAQ

  • Q: What should I do before powering on my power supply?
    • A: We recommend connecting all of your pedals before powering on your power supply. The LED indicators above each output will light up when a solid connection is made.
  • Q: How can I link multiple power supplies together?
    • A: Use the 24V Link Output to connect up to two additional Canvas Power devices. Always reference the power meter on the unit connected to the DC Brick when linking additional units.
  • Q: What if my pedal requires more than 48W of total power?
    • A: If you need to link multiple power supplies together that require more than 48W of total power, use the 96W brick (included with Power 15 and Power 22).

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for trusting us to provide your pedals and modelers with clean, quiet isolated power. The Canvas Power series is built using modern switch mode supply architectures. This means each output is isolated, highly efficient, and heavily filtered, ensuring they supply plenty of power with incredibly low noise.

Our goal with Canvas Power is to bring simplicity and modularity to power your pedals. Rest easy knowing your pedals are taken care of as your collection grows. Canvas Power is ready to travel the globe with its world-wide voltage- compatible DC brick. Just be sure to pack your country’s appropriate IEC cable right next to your toothbrush.

GETTING STARTED

  • First, wire up your board by connecting your pedals to the appropriate power outputs. Next, connect the DC Brick cable to the 24V DC Input. Finally, connect the IEC cable to the DC Brick to power your pedals.

  • The Power HP is equipped with a high powered 3A center negative output with a 12 or 9V selector switch to safely power hungry modelers like the Quad Cortex, HX Stomp, Headrush, H90, and more.

  • The three outputs on the left are rated at 9VDC, 500mA. This means they can power a wide variety pedals on the market. Before connecting, be sure to check your pedal’s voltage, polarity, and required current.

  • Note: We recommend connecting all of your pedals before powering on your power supply.

  • The LED indicators above each output will light up, indicating the DC cable is plugged in and is making a solid connection.

VOLTAGE SELECTION

  • If you have a pedal that requires 12 or 9v, we’ve got you covered.
  • Before connecting, verify its voltage requirements and set the toggle switch accordingly (no one wants a fried pedal). Finally, plug in the DC cable.

LINKING POWER

  • With the 24V Link Output, you can connect up to two additional Canvas Power devices.
  • When expanding your system, we recommend connecting the largest unit to the DC Brick. When linking additional Canvas Power units, always reference the power meter on the unit connected to the DC Brick.

  • The Power HP, 5, and 8 include a 48W, 24VDC power brick. If you need to link multiple power supplies together that require more than 48W of total power, we recommend using the 96W brick (included with Power 15 and Power 22).

WANT TO GET REALLY TECHNICAL?

To estimate how much power your pedal board will need, do this calculation for each pedal, then add up the results to get the estimated total wattage required by your board.
Multiply the pedal’s voltage requirement by its current draw.

  • Voltage(V) x Current(A) = Power(W)

Example: The Slö Reverb requires 9VDC and 100mA (0.1A) current draw, so 9VDC x 0.1A = 0.9 Watts.

MOUNTING TO YOUR BOARD

TECHNICAL INFO

NOTE: Most pedals draw less current than what is printed on the enclosure, but it is safe to use that number as a reference when calculating total power requirements.
