Diago gone bust? Apparently not.

Branshen

Was going to recommend a diago isolator in another thread but couldn't find it in stock anywhere. It seems that their website is down and their facebook page is gone too..

Edit: they appear to be fine..

Noticed their range of products had shrunk when I last looked, no power supplies. Can't imagine the massive power supply product recall helped.

Branshen

Ah OK. Just had a read of the threads. It's a shame if they are bust. The isolator they did was a unique product. I have two which I use with my one spot to isolate some more problematic pedals..

Their 9V to 18V voltage doubler was good as well.

I was wondering whether I could use these to isolate a noisy EHX pitchfork. There's a youtube vid of exactly that and it seems to work a treat. I thought it was a bit weird that no-one seemed to be stocking them.

Website is there at the moment (http://www.diago.co.uk/ ) but no PSUs, just cables, daisy chain, and 18v  converter.

 few other companies make that, i.e. xotic, one-spot... but the isolator is only them as far as I'm aware\

Yep, it was your thread that I was referencing in my OP. a slightly more expensive version is the gig-rig isolator, but that is not as simple to set up, and you're one pedal above the number of outputs, though I guess you could daisy chain any two (except the pitchfork), together.

Odd. It is completely down for me. All i get is a message that states "Sorry, this website is now closed."

I can see it ok.

Just looked around online.  You can still buy their products in various places.  Amazon, PMT, and GAK all have stock.

Odd about the website. I guess I might be wrong and they are doing fine..

NelsonP

I get the "Sorry, this website is now closed." message too.

I think that might be a browser detection issue. From my desktop it's fine,  from my phone it's closed.

The OP said the facebook page was gone, but it's still there:

https://www.facebook.com/diagogear

They haven't posted anything new for over a year, but the page is still there.

Branshen

False alarm then. All good in diago land.

I seem to remember they did a product recall recently on one of their power supplies. So that’s probably why they aren’t available on their website.

What power supply are you using for the Pitchfork? It can be noisy with unisolated supplies, but I've had no problems using the EHX supply that should come with it.

NelsonP

Yes, I'm using an unisolated daisy chain  which is the problem I think. It is better with the ehx power supply.

But if I don't want multiple plugs then I may need to stump up for a proper pedalboard power supply.
