NUX Time Core Deluxe MKII
Product information "NUX Time Core Deluxe MKII"
The Nux Time Core Deluxe MKII is a delay pedal with seven different delay sounds and a looper. It offers the delay modes Digital Delay, Analog Delay, Modulation Delay, Tape Echo, Pan Delay, Verb Delay, Reverse Delay and Sound On Sound. These can be selected in an instant using rotary controls.
The ΦPhi Digital Delay is a digital delay with a repeat sequence based on the golden ratio (ratio 1:1.618). This makes your guitar sound even more musical. Simply set a desired delay time, tap in a tempo and you're ready to go. The delay range in this mode is 80 ms - 1000 ms.
The Analog Delay is based on the timeless BBD (Bucket Brigade Device) delay. It produces a very warm tone with a natural high-frequency roll-off. This sound is ideal for ballad-like solos with an emotional atmosphere. Its unique algorithm replicates physical infinite feedback while the time control can be moved quickly from maximum to minimum. This also allows for spacey and interactive effects. The delay range is 40 ms - 403 ms.
The Modulation Delay is based on the legendary DML Modulation Delay. This delay is popular for its rich, overtone-laden chorus shimmer. If you hold the footswitch down, the pedal switches to Alt mode (the LED indicator flashes orange). In this mode the Repeat knob alters the delay's modulation parameters. Press the footswitch briefly again to exit Alt mode. The modulation delay range is 20 ms - 1500 ms.
The Pan Delay moves an incoming mono signal to different positions in the stereo field. The Pan Delay algorithm turns ordinary panning into a "gourmet" version, as not only stereo positioning but also additional parameters can be finely adjusted. This makes it possible to create subtler panning movements — for example where placement should feel natural — and of course allows for more adventurous settings to be precisely dialled in, promising strong recognisability in mixes and compositions. The Pan Delay range is 80 ms - 1000 ms.
The Verb Delay mode contains a plate reverb algorithm with additional digital delay, which delivers a particularly tasteful and discreet delay sound. Hold the footswitch down to enter Alt mode and adjust the Verb parameter using the Repeat knob; press the footswitch briefly to exit Alt mode. The Verb Delay range is 80 ms - 1000 ms.
The Reverse Delay is a classic effect from the early days of pop music: you record a guitar part on a tape device and then play it back in reverse. The Reverse Delay, made popular by the Beatles and later by guitar legend Jimi Hendrix, still inspires players to experiment and explore new sonic possibilities.
The Sound-On-Sound mode (S.O.S. for short) is a 40-second stereo phrase looper for guitarists to practise and develop new ideas. The handy thing: during playback you can exit the S.O.S. mode to select another delay mode and use the effect while the loop continues to play without interruption.
