Description
The Xotic RC Booster earns its reputation by staying out of the way. Place it first in your signal chain and it passes your guitar’s true voice straight through to your amp, while giving downstream pedals a stronger, cleaner signal to work with. Its transparent nature means it amplifies your tone and your other effects’ character rather than adding any of its own.
Beyond boost, the RC Booster doubles as a signal buffer, actively fighting the tone loss and noise pickup that come with long cable runs or electrically noisy pedalboards and stage setups. That’s a practical win for anyone running a sprawling board or gigging in less-than-ideal venues.
The Gain control behaves like a clean tube amp being pushed harder, letting you dial in a bold, smooth push that feels like turning up your amp’s volume rather than switching on an effect. Dedicated Treble and Bass controls sit alongside it, so you can shape the tone to taste instead of settling for a fixed voicing.
Switching is true bypass, so the pedal disappears from your chain completely when off, with no signal bleed or coloration. Every unit is hand-wired and hand-built in the U.S.A., and while it was engineered for guitar, bassists get equally natural, uncolored results.
