Wowww. For that price that’s insane! Looked around for something to control tone on my A3CM as it booms a bit and you sacrifice punch trying to pull it out, this is perfect! And FX too.. and FX loop…AND a looper! So stoked to plug into this thing!
Seems like a good option to consider for an acoustic guitar. Has all the functions and effects an acoustic performer would most likely use. The only issue I see is that it's coming late into an established market and does not have, in my opinion, something different to distinguish itself from pedals, like the boss AD series acoustic pedals, etc. Would like to see a USB out.
I've just spend about minute trying to clear a black dot under your guitar's neck from my screen before realising it's onto your background (or camera lens)
I got one of these for a present. I admit, I haven't given it much of a chance. Maybe when my current dust of moving settles, I'll give it a go again :)>
I just got one of these, thank you very much. This IS a great bargain preamp/di. I've got this thing with my chorus and reverb in the loop + a Mooer looper. I've got everything I need for a lot of humble gigs if I like. Could you complain about the lack of effects controls? Not at this price you @#$% can't. It sounds great with my Cordoba into my Blackstar.
Thanks for this, really checking it out. I have checked many DI but for the price this seems like a good choice with the send/return it’s too good ( bummer it’s mono, but oh well ) the freeze seems amazing, nearly as good as the ehx? However the reverb and chorus from what I’ve heard in videos seems so bad. But meh. They just crammed so much stuff lol even a looper..
I use AKG C411PP Pre-polarized condenser transduce vibration pickup with my Epiphone EJ200SCE, which has also esonic 2 preamp system. I want to add NUX stageman Di pedal after the akg transduce for more realistic acoustic flavour. What do you suggest?
I have it and kinda like it because it's small and has EQ, Reverb and a looper - all I need really. I find the reverb too muddy, too much low end. The chorus is nice. When you use the hold function the reverb is off then when you release the hold it comes back too wet for a moment then back to normal. I don't know what the USB is for. Anyone? The best use I have found for it is with the Ortega Horse Kick, which I also run through a compressor because the kick definitely needs it.
I would say the USB would be to use it linked up with a pc etc for recording purposes ie to put through an audio interface or similar hardware when running instruments to record directly.
How to set up stereo sounds with atlantic in video? When you turn on atlantic, Sounds like stereo. Isn't stereo? I want to use stageman and atlantic via send return like stereo can I ?
Even though the trebles never really become "strident", dialing up the treble control puts the sonics on the verge of being 'etched', clear but almost edgy.
Too bad you didn't play the guitar first without the engaged pedal. Now it's not possible to tell what the actual improvement is, especially because you don't like the sound of the Fishman pick up.
Clean. Make sure you set it to magnetic first. Or check out the Solid Studio, it's basically the same price and much more feature rich for an electric set up.
Does it work with passive piezo pickups? Looking for a preamp for electric cello, this might work. I guess if it fits Bill (Vencil), then it fits the bill :)
Piezo. Pronounced 'Pee-ei-zo' 🙂 There is no pie, (unless you're having pie for dinner). Seriously, these Nux units look great value. I bought a Roctary Leslie simulator and it's unbelivably good for the price, which is about 1/2 to 1/3rd of anything better (Strymon, neo-vent or Tech 21)
If they sent it to you than it is an automatic biased review. While you may be reviewing it honestly it can never be unbiased. Professional journalist here and I can tell you this is something you will learn in journalism 101.
I watched this video again to be sure - I never said the demo was "unbiased". I said that I could say whatever I wanted (as there was no contractual agreement). But agreed with your basic premise - everything I have ever said in my entire life is biased in some way or other. I hope you realize the same about everything you have ever written (including your comment).

I am glad you liked it!

Seems like a nice pedal. Loved those sounds at the end with the delay and additional reverb!
Nice review and even nicer playing!
Thank you kindly!
Great demo, as always.

Agreed that the market is crowded. I have not seen a price on this yet, but that will definitely be a factor in success (or not).
Beautiful sounds!
Thank you!!
Way better with the delay and reverb together using the Atlantic. Good demo.
First. Looking for good, portable and affordable acoustic guitar pedal. Built in reverb, noth filter is a must have.
Compressor just a bonus.
Thanks for the helpful video. Suddenly I find myself missing my old Thunderhawk...
Love mine, the midscoop function is great ;-)
The part where you play by the end of minute 9:00 is really beautiful
Thank you!!
Great demo! Thank you!
That sounds great!!! I'd love to try an acoustic bass guitar through it. Thanks for posting!!!!
Excellent review for this pedal. Thanks.
I've just spend about minute trying to clear a black dot under your guitar's neck from my screen before realising it's onto your background (or camera lens)
Nice sounds👍👏❤️luv it.!
Great video, love the presentation style and mix talking/demo
Thanks very much!
I wanted to use this, .particularly for the notch, to remove 60Hz from signal . . . didn't spend much time with that here?
I got one of these for a present. I admit, I haven't given it much of a chance. Maybe when my current dust of moving settles, I'll give it a go again :)>
only disappointing thing was that you didn't show us the sound of your guitar WITHOUT the pedal before engaging it. good sounds though.
Nice guitar👍
The compressor is before the preamp? Thinking to get one compressor..😁

Awesome! Subscribed
I think this pedal never had a firmware update?
Bill, I really think you ought to try the ToneDexter.
Yes - that looks really interesting!
Haven't been able to find where to buy the pedal in the U.S. Know of any stores?
Will this work on electric guitar ?
Thanks for this, really checking it out.

I have one of these and i record something but it doesn't continually loop back? How do you make it continually loop?
I wonder if the aux input could work as an input for backing tracks?
Someone said there's a usb on it so you could hook up to laptop and get backing tracks that way I would imagine.
@@mrjasondylan the usb is only for firmware, the 1/8 works great to connect aux tunes
How many impedence input?

How to set up stereo sounds with atlantic in video? When you turn on atlantic, Sounds like stereo. Isn't stereo?
I want to use stageman and atlantic via send return like stereo can I ?
I don't understand the send return there's only one socket. How does it work??
It requires a TRS splitter cable. One side of the split is the send, one is the return. Here's an example: imp.i114863.net/jWDQKb
@@chordsoforion OK thanks. I guess you can put more than one pedal in the loop.. Is that how you put the compressor and delay in the loop??
Even though the trebles never really become "strident", dialing up the treble control puts the sonics on the verge of being 'etched', clear but almost edgy.
IT is also forma nylon strings
guitar?
Don't see why not nylon string is acoustic and I've never seen a designated pedal just for nylon strings I'm sure it would do just nicely.
was the acoustic guitar signal 100% the pedal or was your mic picking it up too??
O efeito Chorus é o mais bonito, na minha opinião . Minas Gerais - Brasil .
Amigo, será que melhora o som " enlatado " de piezo de um violão de captação inferior? Abraços
Good explanation man, what kind of pickup you use man?
fishman prefix 🤷
Too bad you didn't play the guitar first without the engaged pedal. Now it's not possible to tell what the actual improvement is, especially because you don't like the sound of the Fishman pick up.
is it compatible for double bass??
Cool stuff man.What guitar is that?
Tacoma Thunderhawk baritone. Unfortunately, they are no longer made.
@@chordsoforion Thanks a bunch.Good stuff.
When you connect to other pedals, do u put the pre amp pedal in the start / end of the chain?
Good question! I would place it at the beginning of the signal chain.
Great video. Thanks.
What would this sound like with electric guitar?
Clean. Make sure you set it to magnetic first. Or check out the Solid Studio, it's basically the same price and much more feature rich for an electric set up.
NUX has an equivalent pedal for electric as well.
what is the amperage for nux stageman floor preamp?
180 ma v2sources.siiite.com//enclosure/sources/vdHblWwPZhOHTMcD/NUX_NAP-5_StagemanFloor_UserManual.pdf
Worth it for use with a nylon guitar?
Yes!
Does this have stereo input for piezo and mag pickup up?
No, just the one input.
Does it work with passive piezo pickups? Looking for a preamp for electric cello, this might work. I guess if it fits Bill (Vencil), then it fits the bill :)
I do not have a passive pickup, however there seems to be plenty of gain to drive the signal.
Did you get it? As I'm thinking of using this with a passive pick up on a harp.
@@xntricity6446 no I didn't get it. I've made a choice to stick to software plugins, where I can share the sound however I want.
@@Fedor_Tkachev_Music thanks for coming back to me, I purchased it and it's a super pedal for sure.
@@xntricity6446 no worries, congrats on your new pedal!
How much and how to order?

How would you compare this with the LR Baggs Session DI and Venue DI?
I don't know. I have never used either of those.
How do you think this would work for an archtop/jazz style electric direct to a p.a?
I think it depends on the tone you are looking for. If you don't want any amp or speaker coloration, then it may work pretty well.
Hi! Do you think that's possible to use this pedal with an electric bass? Thanks
Probably, but I have not tried it.
Gracias por hablar lentamente, entendí casi todo!
