Launch Pad
The Barber Electronics Launch Pad is a versatile and indispensable tool for any guitarist's pedalboard. This clean boost and preamp pedal packs an impressive array of functionality into a compact enclosure, earning it the moniker of the "Swiss Army knife" of audio. At its core, the Launch Pad delivers a pristine, transparent boost that can push your amp into glorious, saturated overdrive territory. But this pedal is far more than just a simple gain stage. It also serves as a high-quality DI box, allowing you to seamlessly integrate your guitar signal into a recording or live sound setup. The built-in buffer circuit ensures your tone remains crystal clear, even when running long cable runs. What sets the Launch Pad apart, though, is its ability to function as a versatile line-level switcher. With its three independent switching channels, you can effortlessly toggle between different amplifiers, effects loops, or even direct recording paths. This makes it an invaluable asset for complex rigs, providing the flexibility to quickly and easily reconfigure your signal chain on the fly. Renowned for its exceptional headroom and low noise floor, the Launch Pad has found favor among discerning guitarists, including the legendary Eric Clapton. Its combination of clean boost, preamp, and switching capabilities make it an indispensable tool for any guitarist seeking to shape their tone with precision and versatility.
