GigRig Generator Manual

Introduction

This small but extremely powerful 9-volt DC supply is designed for use specifically for guitar effects pedals. The Generator has the capability to power 20+ effects pedals with ample power to spare. Most effect pedals need current in the range of 20mA to 1000mA each. The GigRig Generator can supply up to 5 Amps!

Worldwide Use

The GigRig Generator will automatically adapt to the voltage and mains AC frequency of most countries in the World, including all US states and European countries. For other locations, check that the mains voltage is below 240V and above 100 Volts AC before connection. The GigRig Generator operates on both 50Hz and 60Hz mains frequencies.

Quality: Providing exceptional low-noise signal quality for stage and studio guitarists is our sole objective.
Safety: This Generator is for indoor use only. Don't get it wet!
Good Practice: Designed for use with The GigRig Distributor, Isolator and High Current Adapters to supply power to your DC powered switching and effects products. For more information see www.thegigrig.com/power.

Amplifier Suitability: The GigRig Generator is only for use with conventional earthed amplifiers.
Note: Some vintage amplifiers have no earth connection or have a ground lift switch. We strongly recommend that these amplifiers are professionally serviced and an earthed three-pin plug is fitted (for a safe solution to amplifier hum problems, see The GigRig Humdinger)
If your GigRig Generator shows any signs of damage, the supply must not be used.
