Empress Buffer+ Analog I/O Interface Pedal with Boost

The Buffer+ is an update of Empress Effects’s original Buffer Analog I/O interface pedal. Like its predecessor, the Buffer+ was designed to combat signal loss resulting from lengthy, un-buffered cables. The Buffer+ eradicates signal loss, effectively maintaining the integrity of the input signal. Additionally, the unit features noise filters, switchable clean boost, input pads, and input loading.

Buffer+ Features

  • All Analog Signal Path - no digitals in here
  • Small Size - The enclosure measures approximately 4.5" by 2.5" by 1.5", which is delightfully small when considering all the features packed into this unit
  • Tuner Out - Separate tuner output keeps your tuner out of the audio path
  • Complete I/O - All the connections to your pedalboard consolidated in one place. Makes setup and teardown quick and easy
  • Switchable Boost - Dial in up to 30dB of clean boost and switch on and off with the soft touch foot switch
  • Tuner Mute - Hold the footswitch for a second and mute the amp output for tuning
  • Noise Filters - Similar to Dolby's noise filter technology, choose between 2 different noise filters to remove any unwanted noise from your effects chain
  • Input Pad - Pad or boost the input by 3dB. Great for matching outputs of different guitars, reducing really hot active pickup signal or boosting the signal to your effects to improve signal to noise ratio
