Ambience in Motion

The NUX VERB CORE DELUXE is a reverb pedal with 8 different types including Room, Hall, Plate, Damp, Shim, Spring, Tre-Verb and Mod Verb. You can select the reverb type by using the Type knob.

Room reverb simulates a smaller acoustic space. In such a room, many reflections are absorbed by soft materials, and the sound is reflected and sustained only by the walls (covered with wallpaper), windows and maybe some furniture. Room reverb is akin to the normal ambience we’re used to hearing in the real world.

Hall reverb is based on the legendary Lexicon 224 which was unleashed in 1978. It has a famously lush reverb tail which single-handedly defined the sound of an entire era. A large encompassing reverb with warm, organic decay.

Plate reverb was inspired by EMT 140, which made use of a metal plate suspended in a steel frame, that was able to recreate reverberations like those heard in an acoustic space; a renowned studio reverb found on classic recordings.

Damp reverb is huge and endless, warm and natural.

Shim (shimmer) reverb pitch shifts the reverb up an octave through each feedback loop, creating a haunting and other-worldly sound. This is a unique effect that may open some interesting and experimental sonic options.

Spring reverb simulates the drippy and squishy sounding spring tank that was generated in a spring by creating a mechanical oscillation. To achieve a “bouncy” tone, Spring reverb is a solid choice for adding a bottom-heavy dimension. Classic surf reverb; great for Rockabilly too!

Tre-Verb (Tremolo Verb) combines tremolo and spring reverb, like the vintage tube amplifier with warm tremolo and spring reverb atmosphere that really fills out your sound with classic depth and dimension.

Mod-Verb (Modulation Verb) combines gorgeous chorus with damp reverb, this huge reverb delivers a lush, ambience-soaked sound.

Kill Dry: This function allows you to get fully proceed signals without any dry signals, so you are able to get pure dry amp sound and pure wet amp sound with paralleled gear chain. Or to reach a new level of ambiance effects if the original mixing is just not enough for your ideas.

Decay knob : Adjusts the length of reverb time.

Level knob : Adjusts the wet/dry mixing level of reverb，from 0% up to 100% when you turn the knob clockwise.

Reverb Type knob : Selects the Reverb type.

Tweak knob : Adjusts a specific parameter for each reverb type.

Toggle switch : The Toggle switch is used to go between True/Buffer Bypass and our unique Tone Lock feature. Select Tail to set the pedal to Buffer-Bypass to keep the reverb spillover while you disengage the effect. TB means True-Bypass, there is no spillover while you disengage the effect. T.Lock means Tone Lock. The T.Lock (Tone Lock) function is a quick way to store and lock your current parameter setting to prevent accidents while on stage. After you set the parameters, just toggle the switch to T.Lock position, then the LED indicator will flash GREEN 2 times to store and lock the parameters. Then you can engage or disengage the effect by the footswitch worry free.

FOOTSWITCH & FS INDICATOR : Press once to engage/disengage the effect. While you engaged the effect, press and hold the footswitch can trigger Freeze function. (Hold For Surprise)

While the effect is engaged, the FS indicator will show “Red”. While the effect is disengaged, the FS indicator will turn off.
