Is it possible to put 2 pedals with the same powezr supply without moosing any soun.
I have a fuzz i've buildt based on tl072 experiment of my own and a punch in the face . I like the sound they made when they are plugged together. I have a box big enough to put both in it. Is ok with one single battery or should i use something to increase th battery power or basicly use 2 battery (but i m fed up using so mluch battery in all my babies pedals)
thanx
scuse my english my saturday evening had been rude :shock:
Sorry for my bad english !!

To my knowledge, hooking your circuits up in parallel to the battery will do fine... but they won't last as long. Unless there is some problem with running them off the same power supply, I'm sure someone else will cover this for you.

yea, i've done it a few times.  See this thread: http://www.diystompboxes.com/sboxforum/viewtopic.php?t=33237

some pedals might get noisy with too many circuits in there, i think, but i have had no problem.  There is nothing bad about doing that, really.  Think of the two circuits as one circuit.  Think of a big muff that has 4 gain stages, that could be split up into 4 pedals, but instead it's all put together and powered by the same battery.  If a battery can power a digital delay pedal, it can easily handle several overdrive/boost/fuzz pedals!
