Hi all,
I was gonna write it to the other thread... But it was closed.
Anyways, regardless of whether or not the audience will notice and all... Here is a simple question: Which ones are those pedals that have good buffers when off.
Lemme start:
- Boss TU2: I think its buffer is good. I have been using it in my gigging board like, I dunno, 20 years maybe more in gigs rehearsals. And Korg Pitchback is much better as tuner I think, the only reason I keep that TU 2 is its buffer. I can hear a difference in an AB test done at home in silence (comparing the same setup with that TU and without it).
- EHX Soul Food: That is also good. Did the same test with that pedal instead of TU-2. (Of course, its buffer set according from inside the pedal.)
- Boss DS-1 was bad. On that same board. Then, I just did the following: 6 feet guitar cable, into a true bypass loop pedal that I did for myself and that DS-1 placed in its loop, followed by a 20-24 feet guitar cable into Fender Blues jr. I was really surprised to see Boss DS-1's buffer was real bad you know. I was kinda expecting it to sound better after all, because of the additional 20-24 feet cable. Soul Food and TU2 did great in that test of mine.
These two, Soul Food and TU2, are basically the ones I know. Hence, the thread!
What are other non-truebypass pedals that have good buffers? The cheaper the better!
