Here’s what Earthquaker Devices say about the Buffer/Preamp Utility Pedal:

A buffer is an important tool to combat tone loss with long cable runs or in signal chains running lots of true bypass pedals.

With its high 1 M ohm input impedance and low 100 ohm output impedance, the EarthQuaker Devices Buffer/Preamp will restore your tonal integrity, to give you back the clear and dynamic signal you deserve and your amp craves.

Want more? Not only will Buffer/Preamp restore high end loss, this device has a little trick up its sleeve that will also give your low end a subtle, yet powerful, little kick for some added dimension.

While it is commonplace to add a buffer at the beginning of the signal chain, we find this to best at the end for optimum results. That said, it’ll work great anywhere you decide to place it. For best results, make sure the EarthQuaker Devices Buffer/Preamp is placed AFTER any fuzz pedals that typically like to see the guitar at their input.

Key Features

  • Simple Buffer/Preamp Pedal
  • Tone Preservation Tool
  • Restores tone loss resulting from long cable runs
  • 1 MΩ Input and 100 Ω Output Impedance

Preamp & DI Pedals

A preamp brings an instrument signal to a controlled level and shapes its impedance, gain and frequency balance before amplification or recording. A DI converts the signal for a balanced, low-impedance connection and may include ground lift, pad and transformer isolation. Combined units can add drive, cabinet filtering, effects loops and parallel outputs while keeping the direct path stable.

True Bypass

Connects input directly to output through mechanical or relay switching when the effect is off, removing the active circuit from the audio path. It avoids buffer colour but leaves cable capacitance and switching design to influence high-frequency loss and possible switching noise.
