Got an old DOD FX90 analogue delay on the way. I want to power it with my Vitoos ISO4 psu and I know I'll need an adaptor of some sort. Can I just get either a batter clip adaptor like this or a 3.5mm convertor like this?
I don't know if those old DOD pedal need a centre negative or centre positive connection, or if that it matters, or if it's even a question relevant to these convertors.
In short, I'm clueless - please help!!

It's one of these (not my listing by the way)

I’m not sure it changes the delay time though.

There are two internal trim pots where you can adjust the sound of the delay. If yours sounds ok as it is I'd advise not to mess with these as it's very hard to get them back exactly the way they were. You can mark them first but it's still very hard to get it back to the original settings and then the repeats will be very weird.
That said, if you want the delay to sound like some incoherently hiccuping maniac forever then fine.
I like these pedals though, I think the delay sound is really sweet sounding.
The bad news is that didn't help cure it. The good news is it actually made the thing completely unpredictable and batshit crazy in a way I find very cool. A bit like the 'random' control on those pedals that are supposed to make everything sound like a vhs cassette. So, now it's on a true bypass loop on my 'experimental' pedal board and I use it just as an occasional special effect.
Maybe someone else has a more technical perspective! Worth trying different power supplies or a battery as well I suppose. Hope you get it sorted.
