What brand are you using? It is almost certainly a power supply issue, but I suppose it could also be a loose ground connection...
Also, if you haven't used that power supply with a high gain pedal before, it won' matter if you've never had problems with other pedals. High gain stuff will cause problems with supplies that are perfect with everything else. Just the nature of the beast...
Hey, thanks for checking in! I didn't try a 1Spot yet but will dig one up and give it a go. So far I used a Dunlop and a UsedPedals.com house brand one, both of which have been reliable even with noisy pedals. I opened up the Baby Thundaa when it arrived and the PCB is kind of loose, dunno if that could have anything to do with it. There's a mess of extra wire in there that I was a little surprised by, but having never opened one of these before I didn't know what to expect. It's one of the black ones with the skull, supposedly from the short run of ten according to the seller; dunno if that sheds any light on the sitch.
