High-Wire Dual Buffer and Output Boost

The Mesa/Boogie High-Wire Dual Buffer and Output Boost is a versatile pedal designed to address input and output challenges in a compact chassis. Its technical specifications include:

- Input Impedance: 1M Ohm
- Output Impedance: 150 Ohm
- Input Buffer Design: Discrete Class-A (MESA Stowaway™)
- Output Buffer Design: High-Speed Low-Noise Op-Amp
- Nominal Operating Voltage: 9VDC
- Maximum Operating Voltage: 12VDC
- Typical Current Draw: 55mA @ 9VDC
- DC Adapter (Optional): 2.1 x 5.5mm Barrel Plug, Negative Center
- Weight: 0.743 lbs (337 g)
- Dimensions (W x D x H): 2.48 x 4.48 x 2.06 inch (63 x 114 x 52 mm)

The pedal features a dual-function STOMP switch for selecting variable boost or mute for silent tuning and guitar changes. It includes a mini-toggle fixed boost and a stomp-switch selected variable boost to increase the level reaching a back-line amplifier and drive the amp's input harder. The pedal also provides a buffered low-impedance signal for a tuner, allowing it to be kept out of the signal chain.

The High-Wire Dual Buffer and Output Boost is designed to provide a resolute load and source for the guitar and amplifier, addressing signal loss and inconsistent tone issues faced by guitarists. It features an input buffer that converts the guitar's high-impedance signal to low-impedance, minimizing susceptibility to noise and interference. The integrated output line-driver circuit is capable of driving a long unbalanced cable run to a back-line amplifier.

The pedal's strategic first-in last-out position in the audio signal path allows it to provide a compact and convenient consolidation point for the two most commonly used pedalboard audio connections. Additionally, the pedal's design allows it to be used as a 3-way splitter for two amps and a tuner.

For optimal results, the High-Wire Dual Buffer and Output Boost should ideally be the first device the guitar is plugged into and the last device connected to the amplifier's input. It is important to note that the device specifications are subject to change without notice.
