The boost, overdrive, and distortion are all analog. The modulation, delay, and reverb are digital. You can swap the paths of the effects as well as store patches using multiple effects at once etc. It does everything. It's quite a complicated pedal but the NUX Cerberus is a total beast functionality-wise.
►NUX Cerberus multi-effects pedal can be used as a stand-alone device or 4 cable method connection including Inside Routing, IR loader
►Analog Overdrive, Distortion and Digital Effects
MIDI control to organize your own effect pedals
►16 effects,128 presets (32 banks x 4 presets)
►An integrated loop switcher, IR loader, kill dry function, 0 to 20dB ►volume boost and an accurate tuner

I've been using this for more than a year and it's been my most reliable piece of effects on a live setup. I have a full analog pedal board too but I think a lot of people who have have some live performance snafus on those. This is integrated and consistent. No complaints.
The only thing this misses for my preferred guitar tone is a compressor and wah. You can get some compression from the od, but the attack is not as consistent as using a stans alone dyna comp (or the like). So for now, I just use a wah and compressor attached to the cerberus in serial (before the OD) and given the 9v power (which is a bloody masterstroke), everything works with my usual 1-spot!
Great review. And I highly recommend too!
I have this. Love it. Everything I need built in. Great live. Makes life so much easier than bringing my pedalboard
Is there a delay trail function when you change patches or the delay trail cut off?
@@87RedSpecial no
With 88khz and 32 bit processor that is easily good enough for the bandwidth of a guitar.
Shane, the Thunder from Down Under - your videos have reached a ‘pristine’ level of production and quality. You certainly well deserve any and all blessings (proceeds ;-) that result from your efforts. Top Notch, the Bees Knees, etc. You’ve been at it a while, a 5 year old video just passed through my recommended :) Thanks for everything!
Shane.
Thank you! Mine arrived this morning. An "old guys" dream!
Took me three minutes to find some great tones. Another hour or so watching youtube demos... I think I found my dream rig!
Tomorrow, I'll be checking out the 4 cable setup.
I know you said it was a little challenging to use but, compared to my Boss GT-1, it's a piece of piss! ... and to my ears, it sounds better!
Thanks mate.
Here you go if you want to skip ahead! Final thoughts at the end.

THat sounds amazing - NUX are knocking it out of the park recently!
Dude this is the best multi-integrated-effects, I used it to play live all the time, just plug it in to the front house of the bar I work at, and it sounds a-freaking-mazing, and it's the easiest pedal ever, there are just 4 stompboxes and the overdrive and distortion are Analog, they're based on the Morning Glory and Angry Charlie, or maybe clones, the Impulse response loader it's amazing, I bought some Celestion Pro I.R.'s and this thing sound better than a mic'd amp, (in almost all cases), only downside for my it's that it doesn't have any control for the clean sound, so I depende on my I.R and mixer eq to make it sound good, then workaround the eq and volume of the OD and DIST, overall it's amazing, and it sounds incredible in front of a fender type amp, 100% recommendation!!!!
Have you tried the 4CM? There was lots static on 2 units I sent back. I like the idea and sounds but the static was very noticable using 4CM through tube amp.
Carlos Molina Nope the 4 CM Worked fine with my Bugera V22
@@studiosrevolver hmm... Interesting. I may give it another shot. Amazon will deliver to my door tomorrow. It could have been my tubes were bad since I recently replaced the stock ones and it sounds a lot better. So the 4CM is guitar--->Nux input (far right)Nux out--->front of tube amp...Nux FX send out--->tube amp FX loop return...Nux FX in--->tube amp FX send
@@studiosrevolver well, wish me luck. I just ordered another one lol.. The good reviews and videos can't ALL be wrong! BTW..the Bugera V22 is a very good sounding amp!
@@studiosrevolver hey man after changing out the tubes and trying it straight through front of my 15 watt Monoprice amp I am in love! The sounds I'm hearing are inspiring and it's very easy to use. I can get any sound I want out of this little magic box! Thx for the post. It encouraged me to give it another try!
After 40+ years of playing (on-stage and off), I finally bought a Telecaster! LOL! FedEx delivered it yesterday and I love it! What a versatile guitar - even with the stock pickups! All these years and I finally play a Tele! I was basically a Strat/Les Paul guy and even had a Flying V and Explorer once. I also bought my first SG in December of 2018. I can't believe what I was missing!
I found the comment about being hard to use is both a yes - and no. Yes, if you want to create individual patches (that you can put in edit mode and modify on the fly) - that is a bit tricky to get the hang of, but once you understand how it works, its not too bad. But, if you use it like I do, which is like individual pedals, then it is super easy. Just turn the knobs where you want them and then hit the foot switches to turn on and off. Easy! I also run a fuzz (Barber Trifecta) and a Mini Dunlop Wah in front - and I am good to go! Bottom line is that if you go the easy route, then I would highly recommend it.
Absolutely amazing product! Nice playing Shane! 🙏🏼
I’ve never been a fan of all in one pedals mainly because I prefer using effects individually to attempt to craft my tone. That being said I do enjoy the tones of the NUX pedal. All the effects sound great and I don’t even think I would need to add more tone polish to my guitars!!!🤣🤣🤣 Seriously, out of the other multi effects pedals you’ve reviewed, this one would probably be the best of all. Now where is the button for the Talent Boost? 😂Great review Shane!!!! Cheers!🎸🎸🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Man, it's like 6 or 7 pedals, compact, sounds great and priced right, how can you lose?
That's the best t-shirt I've seen for yonks, yowies are real, I know 21 October 2019 between Maryborough & Howard QLD I saw one fair-dinkum dead-set paradigms smashed like plates at a Greek wedding!? Is that the coveted Hide n'Seek World Champion Cup I see 'Patty' riding Nessie's back holding proudly aloft? Didn't do that good a job did the jet black one I saw leap from a tree that October arvo in 2019, spotted & everything I knew was taught & believed about the Aussie bush goes right out the window, 4 decades of bushcraft reduced to meaningless crap in seconds as meltdown on many levels ensued. I didnt know whether to laugh or cry when I saw the yowie - so I did both, dead set freaked me out severely on many levels.
Anyhow, this 3-headed hound from Hell of a pedal is the ducks NUX!
Gotsta gets me a NUX asafp, these OD tones are obese, Shane!
Thanks for gr8 videos & sensible no b/s advice for beginners garden-variety & dinosaur guitarists like me alike. Peace respect & far too much rock n roll is nowhere near enough. I write this comment on Kabi Kabi land. P.S. RESPECT all WOMEN. or f off.
I plugged in for the first time today and was well impressed with the tones coming out of this baby - and that was after i just restrung my grandsons old Washburn. Next time I'm gonna try my Yammy 502v. Cant wait.
Excellent demo Shane.
where do i plug in my amp?
@@cathystegall4065 - first input on the back under overdrive / Distortion info. if you haven't got an amplifier, just plug in headphones next to the DC9V socket.
Good luck
Great review Shane, thanks! I have got this multi-effects platform since a while now. Fully agree with you as it is definitely not a "plug and play" device, more "plug, read and play" (or even "plug, sit, read and play") thing! The fact, I am still in search of some of its secrets, this is how I fell on your video.. I think you learned me a few things, but I still need to dig into the documentation to really get what I need to know. The rest in terms of tones and sounds is pretty convicing I agree. Thanks again! And by the way: cheers from France ;)
I love this channel so much i was i could subscribe twice!
Had the pedal for several months, worked like a charm. Used it standalone or in an amp, but then winter came.. the pedal froze 3/3 times in live outdoor situation. Then it would work again in indoor situations. Sold it. The temperature in question is anything bellow 5°C/ 41°F.
Why on Earth would you play outside in those conditions? LOL.
Lol Who is going to be playing outside in 40 degree cold temperatures?? Lol
@@Fretfeeler cause I play for money and during winter and christmas times there are outdoor gigs, sorry :)
The people that complain about no comp, there is some mini pedals out there for less than 50 bucks, plus the 5 way plug assembly. Most people don't get into comps anyway.
I've this effect board for about a year , great tones, and easy to pick up on the fly for rehearsals, i was a little hesitant to use it at a live gig, i convince myself to use it, and it delivered. I still occasionally play live it it, but still prefer my pedal board. Otherwise Nux have done a fantastic job in this all in one.
can i use the exp pedal(nux dual footswitch) to control fx and mod in preset mod?
Can i use the exp pedal(nux dual foot-switch) to control fx and mod in preset mode?
Congrats of making such an great funky 70's style funk track. Very nicely done!
I've had a cerberus for about year and a half, and you can't go wrong with it. Been playing my tele with it and so excited to switch to a humbucker picker to get more grit and low end overdrive tone.
Looks LIKE a very versatile MFX unit! Good show Shane!
It's a great grab 'n go, very handy if you need to DI.
The overdrive is kinda "meh", and the MIDI isn't "full MIDI implementation" as advertised but the rest is A-OK, considering the price. I still use my own vibe, and a flanger in front of a couple of Overdrive pedals and a Fuzz, before the signal gets to the NU>X. But it's fine on its own.
If you're going to DI with this, a preamp type pedal in the loop is necessary. But the IR cab sims are pretty darn good!
Just got mine, can't wait to plug it in! Great demo, as always. Thank you!
Great playing... Great sound with the Ceberus....
Always find these things a huge disappointment usually but not this little baby. Bought one a few months ago and love it. Sounds good through PA and even better through my Blues Cube amp. Cannot fault it really for the price. Astonishing value and very well made. Get one !
Thanks for the review.
I ordered one today, looking forward to it.
Been running through multieffects peddles trying to decide what suits my playing and decided on the nux cerebrus. Love the fact it's all analogue and can run the od and distortion in the front and modulations through the effects loop. I was sold lol so thank you for the informative video. Love your channel! Cannot wait to play with the nux and the amp I'm recieving, which is the blackstar HT club 40 Mkii black and blue edition. I'm stoked!!!!!
Shane's clean is my dirty 🤣
Ooh I want to use the MIDI part to control my rack mount processors in conjunction. This thing is so rad, can’t believe I haven’t noticed it before.
Thanks for the review. This was my first ever pedal and the attraction for me as a newbie was that it had many of the pedal effects I would need in one spot, for less that AUD$350. It’s even less than that now! I agree with others who have commented that it would have been nice to have a compressor and noise gate, but man, where does it end?
It would be nice a 2nd video more focused on going direct (IR loading, etc). The one thing I wonder about this unit, because I've not seen in any review is how will it sound with a preamp/amp in a box type of pedal in its own loop, after the OD/dist/boost section, especially for clean (-ish) sounds, since it has no amp modeling per se. Maybe you can check it with your american sound pedal if you still have it laying around. Something like that could add a wide array of tonal options to the unit and won't break the bank
There's so much to cover this video took so long to do as it was. I'm might do a follow up video and see if we can get some samples of that out there too.
I find that it needs a preamp in the loop (if you are DI'ing). I use the Behringer clone of the old Tech 21 Sansamp. I have the AC Tone and California Sound - might give one of them a try. The American Sound is probably the best out of that range, I'd like one of those, and the British.
Exactly what i was looking for hearing . i have the Joyo AS. Maybe buy the AC Tone i dont know and through nux cerberus maybe a wonderful live set up!!!???
Killer track Dude!!
Thanks a lot Steve! 😎
Awesome playing in the intro! Dig the modulation effects, especially the univibe
ROTFL @15:09 !!!!. This is a great unit but the review would not stand out without great playing as usual. Into the wish list it goes.
What do you prefer between nux cerberus vs mooer black/red truck ?
Cerberus takes this W easily
Hmmm loved the Mooer multi FX that you demo'd Shane! Maybe simpler but has all the functions and is an easy backup amp.
you sir are a very great player
Great backing track and Shane nailed it!
damn! a must have for every On the go guitar player!
Spring Reverb sounds great and the boost option is interesting. Distortion is not too fizzy and seems very adjustable. Chorus is good. I just got NUX's Core Looper - they give you a lot for the money. Ordering the effects in the chain is an important feature. I personally have the Zoom multi-effects pedal and your comment about learning to tweak them is spot on. Frankly, it is much more feature rich than this one but also probably more expensive.
Hi Shane iyo how does it stack up against the mooer red truck ? Keep up the great work.
Doesn't your marshall dsl40cr do everything that pedal does?
I've been using this for the past couple of years, superb little pedal, my only issue is I have size 12 feet so have to be careful that I hit the correct switch
Great video, Shane. Thanks! Really helpful information.
I love the Harley Benton TE-52 but I use a Fender 😃 I love the Nux but I use my Helix 🤓
I got one on pre-order. still like it.
Some things that are good about it.
you can stick pedals in front of it. I have a TS mini. works great.
It has IR out and non-IR out for dual amp setups. is awesome. you can disable IR to have 2 non-IR outs.
more editable presets than you can poke a stick at. setup what you like and dance between them.
some things that could change.
masterl TMB and volume controls
Tone editor software doesnt exist and the software is gumby.
A firmware update to bring some of the improvements made to other NUX pedals into this one. e.g. reverb updates.
Yes I use pedals before it and after the drive section before the delays and modulations
Your playing seems to have improved a lot!
looks pretty cool for someone who likes tweaking knobs for hours, i might get one. good backing track too, not the usual minor blues
you can tweak but it is pretty much 4 pedals with simple controls, a loop switcher, with options you might not need.
the loop switcher/preset mode is awesome in that you can get what you want and save it, then tweak and save it to another preset spot
If u can give a review about
Nux cerberus Vs Red truck or Black truck Mooer
Wow, that sounds really great! Tasty playing as usual! I can't remember if you mentioned what the USB port is for. Can you DI record using that? It would be awesome if you would put that backing track on your channel. I'd love to jam to that!
I also wanted to ask about that PRS SE during your last Stream. Is the back of the neck unfinished and what pickups are in there? Thanks!
Great review…. I’m looking at getting one of these. Can you completely bypass it if you want if you’re using other pedals on your board ? Also what if you gave it only 450 milliamps. Would that be an issue ?
insane!! wow!! awesome pedalboard hell yeah thank you I'm between getting this or the mooer ge250... we'll see... thanks
Just wondering what the "patch switching latency" is?
Most Multi-Effect pedals, including POD HDX Helix, Fractal, etc have some drop out.
A couple of milliseconds is no big deal.
The thing about this pedal is it has no expression pedal, so 2 unique settings in one channel would not be possible.
2 settings meaning, pedal forward, lead pedal back rhythm .
Or pedal back gain rhythm
Pedal forward clean with a touch of overdrive for rhythm
Awesome intro man! I have a couple of NUX “Core” multi effects pedals and have been very happy with them for the $. At home, all-in-one units are fun to knock around with. I’m not a performing musician at all, but if I were, I totally agree with your comment that you would need to spend time setting this up for the tones you like, then lock it down. I couldn’t imagine fiddling around with it between songs on stage, especially the modulation effects, which is probably easier to do with a bunch of single pedals on a board. My only other thought from an “if I were on stage with this” is that it’s physical appearance is dark, the lights are all the same color (which is a cost thing I’m sure) and the labeling is also a dark color, which I think would be hard to see in a dark performance setting. How cool would iridescent ink colors and matching lights be?? 😎🤙🏻🎸
nux drive core, cerberus, nux loop core. you have a very handy platform that is compact.
if you were doing stage gigs, setup presets in banks for what you want. the lcd shows you bank and preset clearly in all light.
there are 4 presets per bank and 1 step can totally change everything, so you could gig pretty easily,.
Yeah, that’s a cool feature they have for sure, I just haven’t put in the time to set that up LOL!
Can you let me know how to connect this thing using four cables ? I’m using two cables currently and cannot get the delay or modulation to work as they have no input /output thanks
It looks like someone sneezed on it. Weird finish choice. It sounds good though.
hey. is it possible to record a guitar directly through the nux cerberus into a device like the tascam dp24 without any amp or combo?
@16:10, you said that NUX Cerberus is not for someone who
likes "straight-ahead" pedals. Please kindly give us your suggestions
of a "straight-ahead" multi-effects pedals that is easy to use and
which are not complicated. Many thanks.
Sounds Awesome!! I need one now :)
I am going buy one to use with my Boss Katana Artist i think it would work great for me. I have a GT 100 but this will work for some gigs.
is this an analog multi-effects or digital multi-effects pedal THANKS
There are two sections, drive/distortion -> analog and fx -> digital
if i wanna put another overdrive or distortion in front of this pedal it should work right?
Shane make sure you always give the PRICE ..... Lots of time that the Deal Maker or Breaker .... Cheers & Thanks Mate
There's no point giving the price everyone lives in different areas of the world and will have different exchange rates and the rates vary every single day. If you check the links I post in every video description you can see how it works out in your currency at that point in time. Listing the price doesn't work well if in a year it changes etc. Hope this helps clear that up mate. :-)
@@intheblues Sure Shane I understand I did'nt mean the Exact Price just Ball Park Most folks can work out their own Countries Price from The Australia Doller give or take Thanks for the Reply though
@@MrPinkStrat Cheers mate :-)
Wich one you preferd, The Nux Cerberus or Red Truck from mooer?
Ok, purchased and returned for the following reasons. First off, no matter how I adjusted it, the headphone sound was distorted and clipped. Why even bother to have a headphone jack if you cannot get it to sound like anything other than a wet fart? Second, NOWHERE in the advertising for this unit did I see where the power supply is "sold separately". UGHHH, Really? Come on guys. Ok, it does sound pretty rad through my amp. I think the best way to dial in the sounds you want is to connect it to your computer and treat each effect like it is a real pedal in front of you. Then just store the sounds for your gig. NO issue there. But I guess it really comes down to this. This unit is $300 new and add another $10-15 for the power supply. For the price you are only $200 away from getting the Boss GT-100. What do you get for your extra $200? Only about 50 more effects, including a built in expression pedal. A headphone output that doesn't clip. Basically, EVERYTHING this unit does plus 500% more. That's my assessment for what its worth. Pedal sounds good but just not enough there compared to what you could be getting for about the same price.
It's about time you did this... Now pair that with a joyo classic wah...
Would you recommend this over mooer red truck? Love your videos man! Thanks in advance.
Does the spring reverb do Surf? Like an amps spring reverb?
If j turn of the delay does it also turn off the reverb?
I use my mine when the gig calls for direct out / no amp on stage w/ in-ear monitors. A compressor would be nice but my biggest complaint is that there are no online patch resources for the Cerberus as there are for the Helix and Kemper.
Nice funk man! These are cool and practical.. not sure if the price point is a tad too high for some people... but what do I know. "He's on Fire"!
Sounded great.
My understanding is that there is a parallel option for running the drives also. Did you try that? What are your thoughts?
How does this sound in comparison to the mooer redtruck?!
have the red truck -
BAD: reverb, Tuner
SO/SO: distortion, modulation [no univibe, flanger = eh, chorus, eh, Tremolo = ok],
GOOD: Boost, Drive, Echo/Delay (has tap)
no compressor.
Shane: Consider doing a review of the Boss ME-80. Not only am I curious about your opinion of it, but I've gotta think there are way more searches for that unit than this Nux thing-- and it will bring more eyeballs to the channel. Best, - Adam
I use the boss me-80 and i love it. Its great for metal but the noise supressor isnt too great. I run mine into a noise gate and it sounds amazing. Dont forget to talk about the headphone jack trick.
Nice Shane! Just looked up the Price, $299 US is really Steep! A Tech 21 is the same price. Nice Vid though! Wish I could get my 2018 PRS SE Custom 24 to sound like yours!! The Pickups in mine are WAY TOO HOT and Unbalanced. Tried everything to balance them out. Even had a Luthier and Guitar Builder look at them and his response after 2 days was buy new Pickups! Cheers Mate!
Can you tell me how to play along with backing tracking using Nux Cerberus and output all to headphone?
Nice playing as always!! Is it as harsh sounding live as it is coming over my phone? A lot of treble....
There have been two great lefty guitarists. Jimi and Shane.
Will you please do a demo of the Artist Grunge master at some point
Great review Shane . This thing would bloody annoy me after 30 minutes but it's a fantastic piece of kit I would like if I wasn't so impatient 👍
it really isnt that complex if you want to treat it as 4 pedals in live mode. most of the tricks are with presets and cabling options.
if you go live mode, set each pedal how you want and stomp away like you would normally.
How does this compare with the Mooer Red Truck?
I've been using the 100-watt katana with the footswitch for about a year. I reckon it sounds pretty decent but what I don't enjoy is having to use the tone studio to change a lot of the detail. Does anybody have any insight into how this sounds compared to the Katana effects?
For $299.00 that would be worth spending a weekend with. It might not eliminate a large pedal board but it would make a great fly rig or jam rig.
Am late to the party, but this sounds killer 🔥
Does this unit have a chromatic tuner on it? Does it allow you to tune a string to any pitch or just standard tuning? I tune to E flat and use various other open tunings regularly.
Hi, what's the dimension of the adapter plug that i need for this, what do you recommend?
Demo sounds good and I think the pedals been pretty well thought out with it's connections. But when you start getting up into this sort of price range, you're up in the modelling territory with way more features for about the same dollars (or even a bit less). Heck, you could buy a whole new amp for those sort of dollars. Damn, I've got guitars for less! One thing it has going for it is it's definitely simpler to use than a modeller and smaller than separate pedals. Good if you don't own any pedals.
BTW Nice bit of Creedence in there and loved the smoke coming out the guitar towards the end!
Looks awesome. Lots of tones, lots of flexibility. Can you see yourself using it? I was going to say ‘on your pedal board’, but it seems it would replace everything else! (Or would it?)
what about the VALETON DAPPER? any review or opinion? Best Regards
Great review. I have the nu x looper, it's amazing. If you get a chance to try it out and do a review that would be great. Thanks
What does the USB cable do? is that just a direct out? Would be nice if there was a software that came with it to allow you to muck with the presets. I like the multiple outputs pretty versatile. Good Stuff.
I forgot to mention that. There's so much you can do. I think you can hook it up to a computer and load IR's and stuff into it as well. It's a very complex pedal but loads of options in there for the right person.
the usb is the IR loader and there is a very alpha version of what could be an editor. it isnt and I have been waiting since it came out for the software to develop. You can also do firmware updates and view midi assignments.
Yeah it's for use with the editor and also firmware upgrades. I'm in contact with NU>X as I have a few issues with the MIDI and have suggested a "fix" so that the exp/volume pedal input can be utilized as an external tap-in. Apparently, it can be done but they haven't sorted that upgrade out just yet.
@@mattgilbert7347 Good to know.. Some good sounding tones out of that thing. I might be in the market if I cant track down the tone sucker in my pedal board. I don't use much a bit of overdrive and a bit of delay that's about it probably overkill for my needs but... well so what :)
You could load IR's on this?
Yes you can
Is there any slight pause in the sound when switching in presets? Thinking of hooking one of these up to my DAW when playing live and having the sequencer switch the presets along to the backing tracks. Thanks.
Do we still need add a preamp pedal when we go direct with IR on cerberus?
Great test. Whats a pickups in the Telecaster ?
Does it sounds good in the fx loop of an Marshall SVH 20 TOO?
sound pretty good ,,i have one but after 6 month drive and distortion sound dead ;
I've been wanting one. Lol. Awesome.
I have been looking into this pedal for a while.... It seems that it has a noise problem..esp when u turn on dist and drive...no built in noise gate
