The FLATLINER features 9 completely isolated outputs, ready to power a large pedalboard. Voltages may vary from 3-24 V DC and the FLATLINER can even power 9/12 VAC pedals.

Features

Standard 9V
De FLATLINER has 8 DC outputs for the use of 5.5x2.5 mm barrel connectors (Boss-type). These are standard connectors which fit most Ibanez and all Boss, Voodoo Lab and many others.

Polarity
The 8 DC-outputs are centre-negative , a standard for effects pedals.
Some pedals have reversed polarity (Fulltone '69 en Octafuzz). To prevent damage to your pedal it is important to check the polarity of the input jack of the pedal. A special cross-cable is provided with the FLATLINER to connect to a center positive effectpedal. If you need more cables you can order them on the BURKEY website.

12 VDC
Some pedals need higher voltage supply. Examples are: Boss ACA-type pedals made before August 1997. These need 12VDC to run properly. All Boss PSA-type pedals and post-August 1997 pedals can be run from the 9VDC outlets.

18V/24VDC
Because all outputs are isolated it is possible to join two 9VDC or 12 VDC outputs in a serial connection to double the voltage to 18 or 24 VDC or a parallel connection to double the current to 400mA. For this you need a special Y-cable which you can order from our on-line store.
9/12 VAC
Most tube-driven pedals need AC power. FLATLINER V 2.0 can be configured to 12 VAC, instead of standard 9VAC. Other brands that require AC power are EHX (Wiggler, Tubezipper), Mesa Boogie (V-Twin), Boomerang , Hughs & Kettner, Digitech Whammy, Line 6 Pods, DL4, VoodooLab GCX Switcher a.s.o.

Note to Boomerang pedals: The Flatliner Pro works well with the new Boomerang pedals, which require at least 500mA. You needn't worry about polarity because these pedals accept AC, DC neg tip or DC pos tip. We advise you anyway to use the AC outlet ( Boomerangs need 2.5 mm barrelconnectors (cable SC-AF25).

The Line 6 modelling pedals can be powered through the 9VDC (MM4, FM4) or 12VDC (DM4,DL4) outputs. Since these effects draw more current (150-185 mA) than average you can connect one effect with one output. The FLATLINER can power several Line 6 effects simultanously. Note: Line 6 modelling effects have reversed polarity. Use the right cable.

Dying battery
This option gives creative guitarists the opportunity to simulate the special effect that an almost flattened battery causes in some fuzz and overdrive effects. The FLATLINER's dying battery option provides variable voltages from 3-9V and 3-12V, this in combination with variable output resistances, to achieve the right mix. Learn more about the dying battery option.

Cables
Your FLATLINER comes with 9 cables, 7 regular, different length, 1 for reversed polarity, 1 for AC output.
