Why do I need a
buffer? |
|
- Avoids
the loss of signal level; |
|
- Restores
high frequency harmonics; |
|
- More low end punch; |
|
- More
dynamics. |
|
|
|
Caused by: |
|
-
Cable
capacitance; |
|
-
Long
and/or poor quality cables; |
|
-
True
bypass systems; |
|
-
Series
of pedal effects; |
|
-
Poor
economical buffer
(Boss) / circuitry stages in some pedals. |

Volume pedals: |
|
Masotti
Black Box is fantastic after passive volume pedals equipped with
high resistance pots. |
|
Noise, hiss and variation of frequency response will disappear. |

Impedance: |
|
Masotti
Black
Box
solves some problems of incompatibility between pedals.
|
|
When we connect an effect with high output impedance to a
relatively low input |
|
impedance one, this loads the out stage of the first disrupting
sound. In this case, a BB |
|
between the two effects is the solution. |
|
|
|
Fx-loop: |
|
Input impedance is 1Mohm, while out impedance is about 500 ohm. |
|
So
the Masotti Black Box
can handle also line signals. |
|
|
|
Power: |
|
An internal 9V battery or an external DC source between 9 and
25V. |
|
|
|
Blue led is switched off a bit before battery is completely
discharged allowing still |
|
one hour of functioning.
(15 mA current draw) |
|
|
|
NOTE: the power supply does have reversed polarity.
