Description
The Empress Buffer++ is built for players who need complete control over their signal chain without compromising tone. It's ideal for gigging musicians, multi-instrumentalists, or anyone working with complex rigs-especially those juggling stereo setups, multiple amps, or vintage pedals. Whether you're running a streamlined board or something a little more adventurous, the Buffer++ acts like the utility belt your pedalboard didn't know it needed.
At its core, this is a clean, transparent buffer with Empress' usual high standards. But there's a lot more going on here. You get 12 routing modes to tackle just about any connection challenge, plus stereo and dual mono support, a built-in boost, input metering, variable input loading, and ground loop rejection. It even includes a tuner out with silent mute and a transformer-isolated output for dual amp setups. Basically, it's the feature set of six pedals wrapped into one small box.
Despite all that versatility, it's dead simple to work with. It's compact, well-labeled, and designed to handle everything from passive vintage gear to modern synths. Whether you're solving tone loss, needing a smart ABY solution, or just trying to make your live setup more efficient, this thing does the job and then some. We've tested it ourselves and trust it as a smart, reliable anchor for any serious pedalboard.
