The Empress Buffer++ is the ultimate utility pedal designed for musicians who demand pristine signal integrity and versatile routing options. Whether you’re switching between instruments, toggling amps, or managing complex effects chains, this pedal preserves every nuance of your tone while offering unparalleled control over your signal path. With its transparent buffering, advanced signal control, and a host of routing modes, the Buffer++ empowers you to build the rig you’ve always dreamed of without compromise.
Built on Empress’s legacy of low-noise, high-quality buffers, the Buffer++ goes far beyond simple tone preservation. It features 12 internal routing modes, input metering, ground loop rejection, and variable input loading for precise tone shaping. This means you can effortlessly switch between guitar and synth, convert stereo rigs to mono, or dial in warm, vintage tones—all without changing a single cable. Its stereo effects loop with noise filtering and footswitchable boost further enhance its versatility, making it a powerful hub for any pedalboard.
Designed to tackle the common problems of tone loss over long cable runs and noisy vintage pedals, the Buffer++ uses an all-analogue signal path with Dolby-style filtering, transformer isolation, and differential loop returns to keep your sound clean and punchy. The variable input loading knob lets you simulate the subtle warmth of cable-induced rolloff without the unwanted noise, giving you more tonal options at your fingertips.
Compact yet packed with features, the Empress Buffer++ replaces multiple pedals and cables with one intelligent device, keeping your setup clean and efficient. Whether you’re a gigging professional or a home studio enthusiast, this pedal offers the flexibility and control to adapt on the fly and preserve your tone in any situation.
