NUX Unique Design

The sound is based on the Centaur's voltage converter circuit. But the Horseman's characteristic design is crafted with a built-in OP-AMP voltage-converter driving the 18V to OP-AMP. Higher voltage-supply orders-up more harmonics, and convincingly reproduces the sound of this unique pedal.
 

 

Clean Boost
Another “classic” way to use the NUX Horseman.   Very useful when used in combination with the amplifiers drive channel (or any other drive pedal).  And, depending on the Gain - Output adjustment, it lets the Horseman be used as a clean boost.  Dial-up a low-gain with a high output setting, and it adds mostly volume and minimal color to your sound. 

 


Natural Distortion

Additionally, the controls can be set to distort the sound signal in the pedal, where two Schottky diodes can perform a waveform clipping. ( The germanium diodes are discontinued, we especially select the Schottky diodes to replicate the waveform clipping ) The "gain" knob is a double potentiometer (a "dual-ganged gain pot"), which controls bass and middle frequencies. Treble and volume are each controlled with separate knobs.
 





 



 
Our engineers would like to share the development story of the NUX Horseman. You can find more technical details about the Klon Centaur and NUX Horseman, CLICK HERE and visit our blog.

 

True/Buffer Bypass
NUX Horseman has an optional bypass mode. You can use the pedal in True Bypass mode to keep your signal untouched when the pedal is OFF in the chain. We highly recommend to select buffer bypass mode if you have more than 4 pedals connected together; switch to Buffer Bypass mode and there will be no signal loss in your pedal chain! 

Push and hold the footswitch and power-up the pedal; the LED indicator will show which bypass mode is activated; RED - True Bypass / GREEN - Buffer Bypass.
