Why a buffer has become a "must-have" on modern pedalboards
As a pedalboard grows, the guitar signal has to pass through longer cable lengths, more connectors, and sometimes pedals with imperfect bypass. The result: a sound that feels less lively, less open, with subdued highs and a grain that loses precision. A buffer like the RockBoard Natural Sound Buffer acts as a "signal stabilizer": it helps maintain a consistent response even when the effects chain lengthens or when you switch between multiple true bypass pedals.
In a pedalboard setup, the buffer is often the small component that makes all the difference between a decent sound and a sound that stays true to your guitar and playing, both in rehearsal and live.
Who is the RockBoard Natural Sound Buffer for?
This pedal is aimed at any guitarist (and many bassists) who want to recover the "direct amp" sound despite an effects chain. If you play blues, pop, rock, funk, worship/ambient, or even more modern styles where precision and definition are essential, a buffer can become a reflex, just like a tuner.
It is particularly relevant if you use: several true bypass pedals in a row, long cables between the guitar and the pedalboard, or if you notice your sound is brighter and more responsive when you plug the guitar directly into the amp. In the studio, it helps keep a cleaner and more stable take. Live, it ensures sound consistency on stage, where cable length is rarely ideal.

Questions frequently asked
Where should a buffer be placed on a guitar pedalboard?
The recommended placement is at the start of the chain, right after the guitar, using 6.35 mm mono jacks. This position preserves the signal before long cable lengths and subsequent pedals.
What power supply is required for the RockBoard Natural Sound Buffer?
An external 9 V DC power supply is required, with center-negative polarity. The connector must be 2.1 mm inside diameter and 5.5 mm outside diameter. No adapter is included and battery operation is not supported.
Does the buffer modify the guitar's sound?
Its function is to preserve the signal rather than adding an audible effect. The desired result offers more clarity in the highs and a clearer attack, especially on clean or light crunch tones.
Is this buffer suitable for electric bass?
Its use is intended for electric guitar but it can also meet the needs of many bass players, with a 6.35 mm mono jack connection.
What are the dimensions of this buffer pedal?
The black metal enclosure measures 74 × 42 × 33 mm and weighs 92 g. This compact format makes it easy to install on a pedalboard.
