Re: Buffer vs Better Cable
Think of a buffer as a signal recovery unit. The more pedals and/or longer cables you use, the more signal that gets lost. Putting a buffer at the end of the pedalboard right before the cable to the amp helps kick the signal back up to where it should be so it can travel along the long cable run and retain a good strong signal.
Back in the day, both KK Downing and Glenn Tipton had a buffer between EVERY pedal on their boards including one at the end.
