A few synths and fx units aren't that critical, but add amplifiers, large mixing desks, guitar amps, lighting, big computers or anything with beefy power supplies, esp. This is what power sequencers are for - or you can power up each box manually in sequence or in reasonable sub groups. I'll add that a master switch which powers up a hundred pieces of gear in the same instant from a single outlet isn't always a good thing inductive spikes and current inrush surges can damage equipment and trip circuit breakers. There are three things I agree with in this thread:Ģ - Not having a power button is a cheap out unless we're talking a guitar pedal or a single synth module.ģ - The lack of a power switch on a DC powered box is not a deal breaker.
