Description
For players demanding the absolute best in performance in buffering, boosting, switching, and looping, the Empress Buffer++ is an outstanding option to turn to. Building on generations of Empress innovation in the realm of signal clarity, the Buffer++ offers a suite of signal-enhancing features all under one footswitch. There's a whole lineup of functions here ready to get that little extra somethin' somethin' into your signal. Care to take the leap?
The Empress Buffer++ brings together a number of classic Empress features in one unit while pushing its experience firmly into the future. This begins with Empress's enormously powerful buffering engine funneled through an all-analog signal path. The brand's robust signal buffering powers enable the Buffer++ to take on the tallest of tasks. Buffering is not this pedal's only forte, just to be clear. Onboard, this Empress creation features Dolby-style noise filtering to eliminate hum and hiss even when running the highest gain or most vintage of pieces.
This Empress piece continues on in its journey to be your one-stop signal-clearing device. When dealing with your input levels, the Buffer++ features onboard input meters and pads that assist in monitoring levels and manage the clipping that can be produced by high-output synths or active pickups. You might not always want to lower your levels, though. Sometimes you want to bump 'em up. The Buffer++ features a built-in thirty-decibel clean boost for pushing amps, compensating for level loss, or just giving your rig downstream that overall extra oomph.
The Empress Buffer++ is also a wonderful device for working in complex signal chains to swap between different instruments, amps, or loop paths for A/B or A/Y operation. Additional differential FX loops build up the signal-routing capabilities of this pedal for more involved rigs while a tuner out enables easier integration of tuner pedals into your signal.
Constantly pushing ahead for the highest-fidelity signals possible, Empress has your back with their ever-evolving Buffer pedal series.
