Booster / Buffer

When you have problems with signal quality or audibility in general, these tools could be helpful: A buffer effectively compensates the loss of tone caused by long cables or effects chains. A booster gives you an extra volume reserve, which is great for solos or to push tube amps deeper into natural overdrive. According to individual taste, neutral clean boosts as well as color boosts with different flavors are available. Also, boosts paired with other effects, as well as boost pedals that are "always on" for the overall tone refinement are very common.
