CONNECTIONS 

 

Power 

Connect the PX-8+ power jack to any 9VDC output of a Voodoo Lab Pedal Power, 
using a standard barrel cable. 
 
Most 9V power supplies intended for battery operated pedals are also acceptable. PX8+ 
requires 9VDC at 100mA (minimum) to a standard 5.5x2.1mm center negative barrel 
connector. This is the same power requirement as most pedal effects. 
 

Audio Loops 

PX8+ has 8 true-bypass audio loops. When a loop is off, the guitar signal is routed 
directly to the next loop, passing only through gold contacts sealed in nitrogen gas. This 
bypasses all unused cable and connections to preserve the best possible tone. 
 
All loops are internally wired in series. This means the OUT of loop 1 goes to the IN of 
loop 2; the OUT of loop 2 goes to the IN of loop 3, and so on. There is also an insert
