Fryette Valvulator Mini

The Mini is a high voltage, vacuum tube–based buffer that is perfect for guitarists who utilize modelers, digital amps and long pedal chains. Designed to preserve and enhance your guitar’s tone by converting the signal from high to low impedance eliminating high-frequency loss and signal degradation caused by cable capacitance, impedance mismatches, phase / ground loops and the use of effects pedals. The tube buffer also acts as a tone sweetener, cleaning up and enriching your sound while unveiling subtle harmonics, dynamics and the touch sensitivity normally associated with plugging directly into an amp.

Housed in a compact steel chassis, the Valvulator Mini provides an unbalanced low-impedance output, an unbalanced transformer isolated output and a balanced XLR output, making it a versatile solution as a tube direct box for both pedalboards and studio use.

The Valvulator Mini is the long-awaited evolution of one of our most popular rig solutions, the Valvulator 1 Vacuum Tube Buffer. The Mini features increased headroom and dynamic range, together with significantly lower noise.
