Default EQ to replace Boss GEB-7

Greetings, folks

My trusty Boss GEB-7 is starting to fade a bit. Footswitch is a little finicky, although it still works. I'm interested in any other options for graphic EQ. I use it on my pedal board with a Boss tuner, Sparkle Drive Mod, and Looper.

I'd like to stay with the graphic, and I've looked at the MXR 10 band, and Caline CP-24 (quite a bit cheaper). Any thoughts out there?

The MXR seems to be well-liked. It's 18v, though, and I have a Stymon Ojai power supply that has 5 500mA 9 volt outputs (I use them all). Can the MXR 10 band be used with 9v? Alternatively, if I free up one output (I occasionally use a Zoom A3 as a mic pre for vocal looping, but I can do without it), can I get 18v with a special cable?

I find the graphic easiest to use in various rooms. Although I can dial in a good sound with a parametric EQ, it takes me a lot longer. I'd welcome any other options, and, of course, could also stay with the Boss GEB-7.

Cheers,
Mike
