Nux NBP5 Melvin Lee Davis Signature Bass DI+Preamp Pedal
This great bass pedal was created in collaboration with American Bass Player. Melvin Lee Davis.
This pedal definitely offers a lot of “bang for your buck” providing a bass guitar preamp, DI box, impulse response (IR) loader and audio interface all in the one package!
The Nux NBP5 Bass Preamp + DI has tons of functions based on Melvin Lee Davis’ musical expertise and offers great sound-shaping controls such as a 3-band EQ with middle-frequency selection, a drive section with blend control, speaker cabinet simulation (Impulse Response loader) and a built-in noise reduction with decay and threshold controls.
On the left side of the pedal, you can access the XLR output for a mixer and/or audio interface connection, and you have the option of activating the IR cabinet simulation. There is an 1/8-inch (3.5mm) auxiliary input that allows connection to audio devices and a headphone output for silent practising or monitoring (please check the USB connection). The headphone output is related to the DI out, so that when you activate the DI/ IR simulation, the headphones output will also be simulated.
You can connect the pedal to your Windows / MAC computer to use the editor software and you can also load your own IR files and individually control various other settings.
Supported IR file: 48 kHz / 24-bit, 1024 Samples
The Nux NBP5 MLD Bass Preamp + DI pedal comes with 2 amplifier models, you can select and control the amps and the Noise Reduction on the software easily. There will be more amp models released . . . stay tuned!
