It was more recent, yes, but was more concerned with Digi-format boxes which draw less power.
It’s funny tho (now that I’ve scrolled) that the second-to-last post was the same ghetto-tech solution I’m going with… except mine will have shorter IEC cables (and a Furman.)
It IS rather crazy that there’s not a simple solution for this yet… like what the Conductive Labs MRCC is for midi, but for power distribution of studio setups.
There’s this, but it’s pricey, out of stock, UK based and not sure if it’s enough juice? They make amazing pedals for guitar. All valve based so rather power greedy
Nice guys and sure they would help on email etc.
Edit. Sorry! No, it’s only 1250ma

It is indeed pricey, but looks like it could do the job? I like the weight on Jupiter spec too

I use this:
to power all 3 Digi boxes, an iPad Air 4, 2 Faderfoxes, and sometimes a Launchpad Pro MKIII. I bought the USB-C PD cables off of AliExpress for a fraction of the cost of the Birdcords. I bet the 200w one could do even better.

I have one of those (not that brand) but I plug more than 2 things in and it gets coil whine like a mofo.

Looks like they also sell an expander to this one that gives a single 12v 2a output. But then that’s getting just as messy as 3 elektron psus.

I would not buy Blippityboodoo named generic PSUs for multiple expensive synths. It’s such a gamble with Amazon’s bazaar of crap.

Practically speaking, if you had a four outlet power board/strip that you put in a box with the psus, with three holes in the box for the DC cables and one hole for the AC input cable, is it then just a size/bulk issue?

Yep, mainly. I have cable management ties and metal shelves that go under the desk to try to hide it all, but it’s still a lot to deal with.

Not on mine! No whine, no hiss, no noise, no fuss!

When I had loads of gear, these looked pretty handy (uk 3 pin plugs can be quiet bulky and then some power supplies will have the cable coming out the top, others out the bottom, so took even more space.) maybe not so important in the US as I think your plugs are quite small by comparison?

I was just looking at something similar… but I only need solutions for a few IEC-cabled things, the rest are barrel-cable and random connections.
But for a rack of pro gear, that would be the ticket

Just wanted to get in on this thread and chase the progress.
Definitely interested in power options for my OT AR and AK. One battery for all or even one for each
There’s been threads for different battery options for live rigs etc… I was just looking for a simple studio option. Ended up with just shorter cords on the factory power supplies, cuts down the clutter at least a little.

I found the Talentcell.
Definitely trying one out.
I also got these tiny little transmitter/receivers from Skaa.
Looking into have a complete wireless set up for lounging on the couch, bed, anywhere really.
If it works really well I want to see if I can keep my dark trinity linked up in such a way.
