The DuGyte is the first purpose-built pedalboard connection systems that provides all the elements (Signal & Power) you need to operate your pedalboard using a “single all-in-one cable.” The DuGyte is offered in two product series – the DC Series and the MX Series
What is the difference between the two series?
The DC Series is suited to players who use traditional stomp box type effects pedals that require DC power. The MX Series is more suited to players who use AC powered multi effects systems like the Helix, Fractal and Kempler to name a few or who already have an existing AC powered isolated DC power supply!
What components make up a DuGyte system?
DC Series contains two main components:
The Pedalboard Junction box – to connect all power and signal at the pedalboard,
The All-In-One Cable loom – connects from the Junction box to your backstage amp and power and
MX Series contains two main components:
The Pedalboard Junction box – to connect all power and signal at the pedalboard,
The All-In-One Cable Loom – connects from the Junction box to your backstage amp and power and
With the two PowerCon cables for AC mains power input and output.

Will the DuGyte affect my sound?
The DuGyte has been designed to deliver optimum sound quality and performance. The DuGyte will perform exactly the same as if you just plugged your guitar directly into your amplifier. If you experience any noise or hum through your DuGyte it is highly recommended that you check your patch leads and other cables. We are confident it won’t be the DuGyte. (See our video here for our sound test)
What power options does the DuGyte offer?
Any you have or are considering on using! The DuGyte will work with any power supply available in the market today. We call it BYOPS (Bring Your Own Power Supply).
Depending upon the model, the DuGyte MX Series offers AC mains power, 100-240 50/60Hz @ 10amp and the DC Series offers DC power up to 24VDC @ 3amp.
How many effects pedals can I power off the DuGyte?
Well that completely depends on the power supply or supplies you use! As an example, the average effects pedal needs between 80 to 150mA of power. The DC Series can run up to 3 amps of power so (using 150mA as average) it can run approx 20pedals!
