{"product_id":"empress-buffer-plus","title":"Empress Buffer+","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Buffer+ does everything the Buffer does as the input and output hub of a pedalboard, then adds the tools that come up once a board gets serious. There is a footswitchable clean boost of up to 30dB, a tuner mute when you hold the switch, two noise filters in the style of Dolby noise reduction, a 3dB input pad or boost, and variable input loading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInput loading is the unusual one. It loads your pickups down a little, a lot or not at all, so you can put back some of the high-end softness a long cable used to give you, without the noise. The input pad helps when you swap between a hot humbucker guitar and a vintage single coil on the same board. All analog, built by Empress in Ottawa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInput Impedance: 10k - 1MΩ\u003cbr\u003eOutput Impedance: 510Ω\u003cbr\u003eFrequency Response (-3dB): 5Hz - 40kHz\u003cbr\u003eTotal Harmonic Distortion: 0.02%\u003cbr\u003eSignal to Noise Ratio: 105.3dB\u003cbr\u003eHeadroom: +9.4dBu\u003cbr\u003eBoost: up to 30dB, footswitchable\u003cbr\u003eNoise Filters: 2 settings\u003cbr\u003eInput Pad: -3dB \/ +3dB\u003cbr\u003eInput connectors: 1\/4\" Jack\u003cbr\u003eOutput connectors: 1\/4\" Jack\u003cbr\u003ePower Input Voltage: 9V DC (Negative tip)\u003cbr\u003ePower Input Connector: 2.1mm barrel connector\u003cbr\u003ePower Consumption: 86mA\u003cbr\u003eEnclosure Material: Die Cast Aluminum\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 2\"\u003cbr\u003eLength: 4.5\"\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 2.5\"\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 0.5 lbs\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Empress","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":48147356319828,"sku":"BPLS","price":255.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/1220\/7188\/files\/empress-buffer-plus-BPLS-front_sq.jpg?v=1794252878","url":"https:\/\/lauzonmusic.com\/products\/empress-buffer-plus","provider":"Lauzon Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
