Unpowered Pods
Most Pods are sold with a power supply. Pods can also be sold "Unpowered": essentially an empty
metal box perfectly sized for Eurorack modules.
If you purchased an Unpowered Pod, you'll see there are no power headers or jacks on the back. You
will need to provide your own power supply for your modules. If you have a Row Power module, it can
be installed on the top of the Pod as a normal module. Additionally, there are two holes on the back of
the Unpowered Pod which are plugged with a plastic insert: you can use these holes to mount a jack
which connects to your own DIY power supply.
Tips
• Pods use M3 screws (which are included). You may use any other M3 screw, such as Befaco
Knurlies, but do not use screws with other thread sizes to avoid permanently damaging the threads
of the Pod.
• The Pod40X and Pod48X series have 1.97" (50mm) of depth on the inside; the Pod34X and 64X
have 2.16" (55mm); and the thin Pods (Pod20/26/32/60) have 1.34" (34mm) of depth on the inside.
The depth of your module, including the power header, must be less than or equal to this.
• Exceeding the maximum power draw for a Pod may cause modules to function poorly (or not at all).
It's possible that exceeding the maximum ratings may damage your modules (this is true for any
power supply).
Daisy-chaining
Pods are meant to be daisy-chained. When you plug a
Power Brick into one of the jacks on the back of a Pod,
the other jack can be used to power an additional Pod.
Simply connect a Barrel Cable from one Pod to the next.
You can continue to daisy-chain Pods to make long
chains! With the 45W Power Brick sold for use with
Pods, 8 or more Pods can be daisy-chained (depending
on the total power consumption of all the modules).
Barrel Cables
Barrel Cables are used to daisy-chain Pods.
These same cables can be used in the Row
Power system: You can even daisy-chain a Pod
and a Row Power together!
Never plug more than one power brick
into a Pod or a chain of Pods!
