NU-X Amp Core Studio Guitar Pedal – NCA-1
Amp Core Studio is a guitar amplifier simulator in a deceptively compact pedal format. In this single stomp box, there are 26 revered amplifier models with 33 speaker cabinet emulations and 12 empty slots for user I.R. files. Editing is facilitated by a menu driven colour display and 3 rotary controls to tailor the gain, tone, level and any other settings of the 20 internal presets as needed. Each preset also has distinct settings for 3 scenes, which can be toggled through on-the-fly via the single footswitch. Further editing and setup is available from the free to download Amp Core Studio application. An internal noise gate and send-return loop for external effects are included to complete the amp-in-a-box package. You have a virtual trailer full of classic amplifiers with flexible controls in a pedal that fits in your gig bag.
