Masotti: Black Box

   

 

              

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. (reversed + and -)

Dimensions:
11,2 x 6,0 x 3,4 (length x width excl. jacks x height incl. LED excl feed, in cm)
