Frequently Asked Questions
Rockboard offers excellent isolation for the price point; it's not quite as 'clinical' as Strymon or Cioks, but the noise reduction is very effective for most applications.
Check the pedal’s current draw – the 9V output is limited to 500mA, so power-hungry fuzzes might need to be on a higher voltage or separate supply.
The key difference is galvanic isolation; standard supplies share a common ground, making them prone to noise. This Rockboard keeps each output completely separate, eliminating ground loops.
