ok.
well, the data sheet of the lt1054 states:
Operating Range, 3.5 V to 15 V.
so i guess, feeding 15v into it would create 30v on the output? probably some electr. capacitors would get damaged in that case.... but how about 12v input? 24v output voltage should work for all components i guess?
i just asked, since i noticed that hutson states on their site:
The Broadcast requires a DC power supply unit (PSU) and can run at voltages between 9v and 24v; running the Broadcast at voltages higher than 9v gives it more headroom, output level and clarity. This is great for use with bass or when using the Broadcast as a clean pre-amp boost.

The power section of the Simulcast is similar to this Limited Edition version of the Broadcast: https://hudsonelectronicsuk.com/product/bc-24v-ltd/
"The Broadcast requires a DC power supply unit (PSU). Please ensure your PSU can supply 9v, a minimum current of 50mA and has a 2.1mm negative centre barrel plug. Any other type may damage your pedal. "
The input voltage is tripled, not doubled. There is no reason to run it on higher than 9V, that's already handled internally for you.
The original version of the Broadcast does not step up the input voltage, so if you power it on 9V the entire circuit runs at 9V. If you want this type of functionality you should omit the charge pump IC.
