I've been using an el-cheapo pedal power supply Donner DPA-1 I believe it is a switching supply and the price was right. I've been working hard to try different techniques for lowering the noise floor in my DIY pedals. I've tried shielded wire, shielded enclosures, but nothing compared to the difference which occurred when I changed power supplies. I suspected this might help, and wanted to learn a bit, so tonight I built a 400mA filtered regulated linear power supply. The difference in the noise floor was very noticeable. So, if you're using a junk power supply and have noisy gear, this definitely makes an improvement. I might try to put the old and new on an oscilloscope to chart the difference, if anyone is interested.

I used a voodoo labs pedal power 2 when I used a pedal board. It's not cheap but each of the outputs is completely isolated
