NuX Atlantic
Nux · pedal
The NuX Atlantic is a combined delay and reverb pedal running both effects simultaneously in one compact enclosure. The delay side offers three voices covering warm analog-style repeats that degrade as they decay, clear digital repeats, and a modulated tape-style echo, with tap tempo. The reverb side provides plate, hall and spring voices, from bright, percussive spring splash through smooth plate to a wide, spacious hall wash. The two effects can be blended together for ambient textures, and the pedal runs in stereo.
