MI Audio Introduces The Boost 'n' Buff Effect Pedal

November 16, 2006

MI Audio, is excited to announce the official release of their new booster pedal the "Boost 'n' Buff". The "Boost 'n' Buff" is now available to purchase from MI Audio dealers and direct from the MI Audio website. The "Boost 'n' Buff" retails for US$99.95.

The pedal is a unique creation that is designed by Michael Ibrahim (the brains behind MI Audio) to carry out 3 distinct functions. In bypass mode, it's an ultra high-input impedance buffer (Buffer). In the lower volume range, the frequency response is flat for use as a simple volume booster for solos (Flat Booster). In the upper volume range, the Boost 'n' Buff becomes more like a treble booster for driving a valve amp into overdrive without getting loose and fuzzy (Treble Booster).

The Boost 'n' Buff has an amazing 35db of gain on tap. The circuit for the "Boost 'n' Buff" is a rather elegant design based around one ultra low-noise transistor.

The "Boost 'n' Buff" pedal uses 2 * 9V batteries. By running the Boost 'n' Buff at 18V, you're guaranteed more headroom than you're ever likely to need. There is also the DC jack for external power if you prefer.
