Nux MG30

Sophisticated modeling technology, studio-quality feel and sound!
The Nux MG30 is a multi-effects pedal for electric guitar designed to offer the best current modeling technology, with comprehensive and modern features, all housed in a solid and ergonomic chassis with excellent value for money! The result is stunning with its 2 powerful DSPs driving the TSAC-HD (True Simulation for Analog Circuit) technology, which recreates and models the analog tones and interactions of physical components. All this delivers a natural, dynamic, and inspiring playing feel and sound, with no perceptible latency!
The MG30 provides a wide variety of well-known effect pedal and amplifier models: 30 legendary amps, about twenty cabinets/IRs, 8 microphones (3 different positions), as well as around fifty effect pedals: compressors, overdrives, distortions, modulations, equalizers, noise gate, delays, and reverbs. A Bias parameter on the tube amp simulations allows you to adjust the warmth of your power stage sound. Impulse responses (IR) are managed by the multi-effects unit, and you can also upload your own IRs. This technological package puts an infinite range of tones and combinations at your fingertips, with studio-quality sound.
Solid, ergonomic, and ultra-complete design!
Designed in a compact and robust format, this revolutionary multi-effects pedal lets you control and enjoy all your presets with great ease. Thanks to its very readable 4-inch color LCD screen, navigation joystick, and quality potentiometers, you have clear and easy control over your presets and all embedded simulation parameters. Its 3 built-in footswitches can be complemented with the additional 2-way NMP-2 footswitch provided, giving you even more control over the different effect blocks in your signal chain. An effects loop allows you to easily integrate your favorite effect pedals into your signal and choose their position in the chain. A built-in expression pedal can control various parameters, and an integrated tuner lets you always stay in tune quickly and silently if needed.
The MG30 offers a fully modular signal chain, where you can easily choose the order of the active effect blocks, with parallel routing management as well. The footswitch assignments (both the pedalboard and the NMP-2) allow activation or deactivation of different effect blocks within the same preset. Using the free Nux Quick Tone? software, you can easily modify your sound parameters precisely, download patches, load third-party IRs (impulse responses), and even configure the USB audio stream routing. Quick Tone? is an interactive editing software; when you adjust the controls, you see your changes in real time. As a true USB audio interface, the MG30 also allows you to record, stream, and even re-amp your recordings.
In addition to all these features and quality simulations, the multi-effects pedal offers a Jam mode, with a well-stocked drum machine featuring various musical styles and a simple, effective looper that can record 60 seconds of loops with unlimited overdubs. Perfect for accompanying and practicing your instrument silently if you wish, thanks to the provided mini-jack headphone output. With the MG30, you have everything to create and develop your ultimate guitarist sound, with exciting and inspiring playing sensations!

What's new in Firmware version 2.3.02:
1. Added current firmware version information on startup screen, INFO screen, and Settings menu in QuickTone software.
2. Added shortcut to restore default factory patch in Preset mode.
3. Added two new bass amplifier models: DGLASS & STARLIFT
4. Added three new effect models: DAMP (RVB), Chorus CSH-1 (MOD), and Nux SteelSinger (EFX).
5. Added ability to replace certain blocks in the signal chain with others, allowing, for example, stacking CMP and two EFX simultaneously.
