Something is wrong with my pedals....

Sometimes when i play, the sound just disappears. I don't know what's wrong.
It' happens often when i use my MD-2. Is it possible that there is something wrong with it? If it is, then what's the problem? And also, i have four pedals(MD-2, CS-3, CH-1 and a Crybaby) plugged into one adapter(i'm using a cabel split) can that be the error? Please answer, i need help cos we have a consert in two weeks.

Damn! I don't know what to say but I would start with the power supply. That can be the root of all problems.

Check all pedals individualy, with a different power supply. Does this problem still happen?
Check the cables in between the pedals individualy. Move and twist the cables a bit gently, (you don't want to break it). Any rustling sounds?
Check your instrument cable, plug your guitar in your amp without the pedals, look for the above.

Thanks for the tips guys.....but one question still remains......why do they do cable splits if they drain the power source?

Companies don't follow the rules of logic, they follow the rules of the salesman: It doesn't matter if it works, as long as people buy into it
