I got this pedal for a present! It's a wonderful piece of hardware especially if you're playing straight into the mix console and using in-ear. The sound of the IR simulators is amazing!
@zjlen ... If you plug in your headphones to the pedal, Does it affect the D.I. out signal? Coz I would like to use it as my In Ear Monitor during a live gig, Just wondering if its possible or not. Thanks in advance
I am really digging this Nux Melvin Lee Bass Preamp + Di. Was looking for a pre-amp with a light-duty drive. This definitely has a nice simple drive. I love that you can go in and change the IR settings on your computer and select the head and cab sims that work for you. My preference is the MLD amp combined with the SV810 cabinet. Another great feature is the ability to turn the cab/amp sim on or off to your amp output and the XLR output. I like engaged for my in-ears and to house XLR output and OFF to my stage amp. There have been some negative comments about the software but they have since updated the firmware to V4 and I had no problem.
This is an absolutely wonderful pedal. Beware of buggy software. I was waiting for a bass version of the Strymon Iridium. This will do nicely. The one downside is that away from the editor, you have to decide on which amp and IR you can use.

René is marvellous as always!
4 Sure!
Been looking for an all-purpose DI and Preamp to send a signal to front of house at shows, this will do nicely - especially for the price!
You guys are the definition of “music nerds” and therefore ridiculously cool. Great video and playing !
I've had my eye on one of these for a little while now. Thanks for the review. Just purchased through your posted link.
I’ve been waiting for some demos of this since seeing a video from NAMM - thanks!
Rene with the killer grooves! Great demo for a really interesting pedal
Unreal bass player
Great pedal...and a great player to demo it!
Thanks, I've been looking for reviews of this pedal since it was announced. Find it very intriguing.
Amazing. I wanna play that univox bass!!
I loved this thing as a headphone amp, but the software was a pain in the ass. Lucky that the stock sound was great but still would have been nice to have that work.
René sounds great as always. No matter which device he uses. :-) maybe Melvin and René are so perfect but I mainly need a compressor. If I use this for direkt recording, why Nux has not integrated a compressor?
Only just a led indicating tuner would have completed this Swiss army knife! Amazing pedal
Ebs microbass 3 ua-cam.com/video/g2GbdjHrK-g/v-deo.html
And also a compressor. More important than IR
@@Shoot_and_Scoot 3 times the price :-(
@@wolframheldmaier727 just got to buy it once. I love mine.
Seems like a good competitor to the Darkglass Ultra series, if maybe slightly less powerful EQ
It's really it's own thing. A dedicated digital preamp/di with ir cab sim where you can change both the preamp modeled and the ir. Easily worth more then the asking price.
Hey Gregor
Could you imagine the Nux melvin lee Davis and Darkglass ADAM on the same pedalboard???
Thank for making These Videos with great content and your Germany wit.
Nice pedal! Best of luck to everybody for the giveaway :) Thanks BassTheWorld!
Geez!! Here we go!! Either this pedal or the Markbass vintage pedal (when it finally comes out) WTF!!😣
Very nice!
Hi, i would have a question, i m building a compact battery powered bass amplifier, so j would use an hifi speaker plus class d amp+ preamp with IR o cab simulator. So i can also plug other instruments to it (like the volca sample) because it has a flat and hifi response if i bypass the pedal. Do you think this pedal could be ok (to be hooked directly to the clean hifi sustem)? What about the cheaper harley benton custom line Bass DI expander?(i see you reviewed it, and it has the compressor)
Thanks for the good video
Hi Gregor. Erst mal wieder Danke für die Produkt Vorstellung..... Immer wieder schön.
Frage. Kann ich den Drive so anpassen dass ich beim schalten von Clean auf Dirt einen Lautstärke Unterschied bekomme. So um die 3 bis 5 DB um Präsent zu bleiben. Quasi wie bei meinen trace Elliot ..... Da macht das das Pedal ja automatisch?
Dankeschön
I love the sound! Would you recommend this one over the Palmer Pocket Amp as my first preamp? Thank you
Haven’t tried the Palmer but this one here is really good! Can’t go wrong with it
I could care less as to what it looks like. Ultimately is how does it sound, is it useful ?
This pedal is loaded! I want one.
Mantap
The pedal is probably subtle because on every example demonstrated, you've had the parallel blend below 12 o'clock.
The blend is for the drive
WOOOO! SICK!
Hi Gregor, nice video and it definitely made me wanting this little Preamp. At Thomann and talkbass I read there are several Problems getting the Box hooked up to the SW. Did you have any porblems with yours? Regards, Daniel
The software is slow and loves to crash (on my Mac) but it gets the job done.
Suena Machín... 👌🏻😎
1:43 starts playing the lick from victor wootens super bass solo dvd...
Commonly, my brother playing very well at a Bass at church and some coffeeshop..
So I giving him my old Zoom B1 multieffects for tweaking some tone..
I hope I can helping him for find a new pedal, so, is good for upgrade from Zoom B1 to Zoom B1 Bfour or to this Nux preamp?
He playing many effects modulation and any variations like octaver and others, so it be complicated for me to choose for him...
What bass is that around 2:55? Idk if it’s the pedal or the pickups or both, but that sound is great
Can you recommend some IRs for bass? Has been searching for one to use in my HX Stomp but never found the one that I like.
Try shift line bass package. It’s free. 10 IRs
Seacow cabs: American invasion or the dark glass IR. They are free but supporting with a small donation won't hurt.
Sounds killer. One question: are those pickups on the Jazz Bass Dimarzio Model Js?
Kloppmann 60s
Good stuff
Hlw, may I know about the beautiful basses u have been played nicely?
I'd like to ask a question. Do the settings you change in the editor while the pedal's hooked up to the computer (ie. Amps and cabinets ir) stay with the pedal or are those options only available when connected to the editor software? I couldn't find anything about this on the reviews and neither on the manual.
Once you safe the settings, they’re in the pedal. No software needed on the go
@@basstheworldofficial Thank you for such a quick reply! And on a 2 years old vid on top of that!
i love my E B S Micro bass 3 so much!!!!!!!!!!!
Can this work for saxophone
sounds interesting!
Does Strymon make one of these?
Can i use any 9v adaptor for this,,or any recommendation,, please?
Everything needed in a preamp pedal and not to expensive!
Uno de los mejores pedales para bajo de NUX 🤘🏼
0:50 Oh my god:)
What exactly is the "THROUGH" out for? In what situations would you use that in?
To split off a clean signal for recording or go into other pedals, amps, etc
@@basstheworldofficial Right, that makes sense. This pedal does have quite a bit of features. Thanks!
Indeed. Every bass sounds different.
?
I want this.However instead of a demo by the likes of Rene who makes anything sound fantastic, I suggest getting a hack like me for your video because if it makes me sound good then it'll really convince buyers
❤❤❤
Pity this guy's pronunciation is so german that UA-cam even makes the subtitles german automatically
Did this bass player spend some time in South Africa?
France (Paris in particular) affords an astounding melange and interaction of the musical traditions of Arabic and African origins in today's music. One of the few upsides to colonialism.
@@jaribu2758 There is no upside to colonialism, I'm pretty sure nations of the world could've discovered each other's culture, become a melting pot without the barbaric brutality of colonialism and I asked about South Africa specifically...the country, not an entire continent because I heard slight whiff of Maskandi in the bass player's approach when he started his demo. ( a distinctly South African sound from KwaZulu)
@@Njabuloseh of course
1:51 is brazilian music !!!!
@@Njabuloseh There are up sides and down sides for everything in life. It is what YOU make of it; or are a beast in the herd?
Any thoughts on a good lightweight power amp to use with this preamp for live?
Why not just go straight to in ears?
@@basstheworldofficial I don't have that option available
Do you switch active bass into passive mode while using external preamp pedal
If no then what about bass onboard preamp with di pedal preamp on does signal crashes ?or it doesnot effect its signal ???
I preferred the di switch in the down position. Is that with the cab sim on or off? I think it's an oversight that it's not labelled and the instructions on the website miss this also
it's off in this setting. But there are different IR's you can load. Mayne another one works better for you.
0:44 Even a demo of how to shave a bass face. Turn it up!
Also possible without can sim?
Sounded like Fire Water
You are so funny man 👍🏽😎
I just wish there wasn’t so much tapping and slapping
if you say this is melvin lee davis pedals, you have to play one of his songs. Honestly this is a very bad review, you don't show Melvin Lee Davis playing with this pedal at all
You have a weird understand about what a gear review is
