Good Cheap Volume boost pedal

Post by jimib »

I have a behringer volume booster pedal which I use in a loop with a Kaoss Pad Mini (which I saw in a Hurb video ages ago)

For some reason I NEVER have any luck with Behringer and the pedal totally fucked up on stage on Thursday and so I couldn't use the Kaoss Pad at all due to the volume drop, but even more so the Behringer being so shit no signal was going through it at all.

Anyway now I need a new booster pedal which will be used in a loop when I use the Kaoss Pad.

The Behringer cost me AUD$50, so I'm hoping for something around the AUD$100 if possible.

Cheers

EHX LPB-1 pedal is good and cheap. Or a Saltbooster form Mike.

You're not really gaining much if you go above that range.

thanks those LPB-1s sound good and are in within the price range.

ive seen a fair few saltboosters on here but when you factor in the conversion rate, postage costs and postage time i dont know if it would be worth it
