Ditto Mic Looper | The supplied psu is stated as 12vDC/400mA, while the stated 5.6w power consumption actually comes out to 466mA. So use the TC adapter, or plan on feeding it 12vDC, at least 500mA. |

* Note: Unlike most pedals, the Polytune (at least the original version – I haven’t checked v2 and 3 yet) does not cut the battery out when a plug is inserted in the adapter jack. The pedal switches to the adapter input when voltage is applied there, and when voltage there is lost, the pedal reverts to battery power. Now, while the current draw in bypass is tiny (less than 1 mA), it will eventually drain the battery unless the input jack is unplugged. This is of course relevant if you have the Polytune (v1) mounted to a pedalboard, and have the input cable constantly connected.
