\"Tips<\/a>Nowadays many guitarists swear by true bypass. As I already told you in the article \u201cBuffer vs True Bypass<\/a>\u201d, a good buffer or booster has many advantages (especially for large pedalboards).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But you can also buffer your signal by using a good booster, which is not only suitable for overdriving a tube-amp but also is appropriate to be used as an exciter and sound-refresher.<\/p>\n

An example: The Edge of U2<\/a> has got more than one in his huge rack<\/a>. He uses a Boss Pre-Amp and a Korg SDD-3000<\/a> digital delay (preamp) to freshen up his guitar-signal.<\/p>\n

And also Angus Young (AC\/DC<\/a>) is known to do so. He uses a wireless-system to improve his sound. Even in the studio he does not use a cable but his Schaffer Wireless<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Numerous guitarists use the Echoplex EP3 \u2013 a transistor tape-delay of the 70s \u2013 only to improve their sound. Keith Richards (The Rolling Stones) too boosts his tweed amps with a Fulltone TTE Tape Echo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Especially when you mostly play your guitar at home and want to use a tube-amp as a so-called \u201cbedroom amp\u201d, this has many advantages: tubes need a certain volume level to sound sweet. If you live in a flat and you cannot turn up the volume that high, it makes sense to drive the preamp by a louder signal \u2013 without overdriving the preamp. This increases the dynamic-area and makes the signal more dynamic and punchy.<\/p>\n

Geeignet sich daf\u00fcr viele Pedale: Vom bekannten\u00a0 Appropriate to this are many pedals: starting with the famous Xotic EP<\/a> Boost, which imitates the Echoplex EP3 preamp over clones of the Korg SDD-3000 preamp to the Klon Centaur. The preamp of the wireless system of Angus Young (Schaffer Replica) just has been reissued.<\/p>\n

And even EQ pedals are suitable for this. The Boss GE-7<\/a> or similar pedals moreover are able to edit individual frequencies.<\/p>\n

In summary one can say: just try it out. Both the sound and the feeling of playing will change. Booster are not only to boost the preamp.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
