Overview

A buffer, flat boost, and treble boost in one pedal.

In bypass/buffer mode, the Boost 'n' Buff from MI Audio acts as an ultra-high input impedance/low noise buffer. Drive cable lengths as long as you need without sacrificing tone, or put it in front of distortion pedals or high-gain amps without worrying about introducing significant noise.

In the first half of the volume sweep, the frequency response of the Boost 'n' Buff is flat, providing you with about 15dB of flat boost”perfect for solo volume boosts”before the pedal becomes more of a treble booster.

Once past the half way point, the mid and high frequencies start to climb faster than the low frequencies. At maximum gain, not only do you have an amazing amount of boost (approximately 35db), but the frequency response is perfectly tailored to driving a tube amp. Also, with the 18V headroom, your sound will be 'cleaner' going into the amp, so that there's less coloring from the transistor.

All MI Audio pedals have the following things in common:
