Nux: CERBERUS: Amp & 4CM general demo.

[@CrenshawMoreno]

Brett Kingman. The only reviewer on KZbin, who goes from Johnny Marr riffs to EVH shredding in realtime... in a wonderfully tastefully manner. Top shelf!

[@BrettKingman]

Ha! I don't even realise I'm doing that. Wearing my influences on my sleeve, I guess. Cheers, Anthony!

[@taquaraldobairro3635]

show congratulations on the channel as I do to connect a preamp pedal next to the cerberus

[@Dmitriy_Tkachenko]

Вы единственный на Ютубе, кто раскрыл звук перегруза в этой приблуде, спасибо.

[@svenamsterdam3501]

Well done. I was looking at the Boss ME 80, but now this is looking pretty good.

[@glisteningkabana8154]

Seems like an impressive piece of gear. Thanks for the demo Brett!

[@demofactory]

Great demo, and great playing!!! Thanks friend!!!!!!

[@NONAME-GIVEN]

Impressive pedal, and a great job showing it off.

[@gianthonour]

Great demo. Just about want to buy everything you demo 😀

[@samkaragiannis5757]

Great demo, took it unit to a rehearsal the other night, not only was I impressed so was the other band mates, brilliant gear for on the fly.

[@DanielFavio]

The output on my Cerberus Overdrive Distortion module cuts out when ever I engage the overdrive or distortion buttons. When I disengage the distortion/overdrive buttons a clean signal is heard. Engage the distortion button again and no sound despite all the levels on the distortion being up. This makes it impossible for me to use the four cable method with my other pedals or an amp If I want to use the Cerberus distortion. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I want to put a boss tremolo pedal between the Cerberus DS/OD and the Cerberus reverb. But I cant get any signal because as soon as I engage the distortion or distortion it cuts off the signal coming out of the distortion module. It doesn't make any sense why and I want to run the Cerberus distortion through my boss tremolo pedal and back into the modulation part of the Cerberus. Can any one help me make this happen?

[@nazree1975]

Hi can i use the output to amp for my monitor and at the same time cabinet simulated output direct ti mixer for house mix? At the same time.

[@TimothyBussMusic]

Just checking in to let you know I watched both videos!! LOL

[@BrettKingman]

Haha. Thanks Timothy. All the best to you this weekend.

What is better nux cerberus or mooer black truck?

[@郑大象]

虽然你看不懂，但设备评测就服你，音色真的喜欢

[@BrettKingman]

我可以閱讀它，我感謝你的評論。謝謝。

[@khaledaljaish]

Oh brett u speak Chinese 😂

[@DoctorMcFarlandStudios]

Does parallel also mean the delay and verb has tails when you turn them off or change presets?

[@FilippaArendt]

🌟 Very cool for gigging 🌟

[@tomsmith7225]

Cerberus or Atomic Amplifire 6?

[@mauriciotolentinno7013]

How make to input an OCD together? I use before the signal of guitar to enter in Cerberus?

[@CarlitoM77]

Guitar->OCD->Cerberus

[@floseul]

Comment avez vous brancher le pedalier nux ?

[@leonelrojas1516]

Between the NUX Cerberus and the Mooer Red Truck; Which one would you choose?? and Why

[@w.c.orielly9059]

That's a great question... I am wondering the same thing... cuz I'm on the fence between the two... can't afford both..lol

[@kenmasters007]

Moorer is less expensive and doesn't have Cab simulation.. you can't change the order of the FX, OD, Distortion if that matters to you.

[@leonelrojas1516]

So you recommend NUX CERBERUS??

[@kenmasters007]

Leonel Rojas I don't own either. But on paper, cerebrus has more features.

[@Asphaltheizer]

The Mooer Redtruck DOES have a cab simulation !

[@naveenkumard1052]

Which distortion is better organic?? The line 6 distortion or this one here????

[@34029999]

Can somebody just tell me about the boost option on the back which adds up to 20 DB of "clean" boost.....................Does that mean you can assign it to the bottom bank switch, and activate it say during a solo to make you louder?? If so that would be awesome! All in one pedal! Anybody can explain though please! thanks!

[@Zankitophat]

yea, means exactly that, however i find the boost a bit overpowering even at lowest level when distortion is on, when clean boost works great

[@daveincsa]

So from a 4CM perspective, would this be a viable alternative to a POD HD500x. I’m running a Laney Ironheart that I’m looking to add some basic effects to. I don’t really need the distortion on the unit but I’d use the overdrive.

[@hoschie2261]

No problems with hum in 4CM?

[@danyeo]

Does this allow modulation to be run into the amp input? Modulation imho should not be run in effects loops. Nobody and I mean nobody, would stick a phase 90 into an effects loop.

[@taurushamilton2739]

U don’t have to use 4 CM w this unit. It sounds awesome going str8 into an amp. 🤘🏾 it’s a great piece of gear. Soon I will stick a preamp pedal at the end and go FOH. It sounds great on recordings, live. Nux 4 the win!👍🏾🤘🏾

[@Purplino]

How does work with a line level Fx loop like the Soldanos' ones??

[@Ianfi]

Cerberus Nux or Trex Soulmate ?

[@jfonlinenow1]

Is it possible to put a volume pedal in the chain before the delay? I like to be able to do swells into my delay.

[@martinkarlsson7021]

Jon Faulkner yes. If you use an expression pedal (via expression in) it will automatically be placed between the drive section and the delay/mod section.

[@snivleflips]

Hi, does it run on batteries?

[@BrettKingman]

Hi. No.

[@aahl1680]

Music?

[@lbninja0]

@Brett Kingman Between this and the Mooer Red Truck what will you choose for a grab and go pedalboard an,d by adding 2 or 3 pedals (compressor, big muff) a Gilmour inspired pedalboard ?

[@mattgilbert7347]

This was my go-to Gilmour board for years, with 3 or 4 extra pedals similar to your ideas. 4 years on I'd still use it, but having the phaser and vibe after gain is not my preference.

[@taurushamilton2739]

@@mattgilbert7347 I put the Nux Plexi Crunch post Cerberus to get my modulation from the cerberus pre Plexi, woks fabulous! Also adding a 2 button footswitch allows me to utilize the reverb and volume boost access from the 2button and I use the CNTRL button on Cerberus for independent Chorus access, Although you can finagle some really cool tones with both the chorus and phaser on at the same time. I've got a really cool mod effect with both of those that sounds totally unique when using the drive /dist pre mod section, kind of like a whirling rotary chewy tone very satisfying and totally different than any standars mod. I, like you prefer my modulation effects before my drives, distortions. I made a 90% Nux pedalboard w Cerberus, Steel Singer, Modcore(pre Cerberus) JTC drum and looper, and Plexi Crunch. Nux is really killing the game right now, I love all the pedals that I have tried from them!

[@MortandHarley]

Great demo, but....it's very bright almost brittle. You might want to drop the highs on your amp or the pedal. It's missing a warm rich sound. Sounds like you are playing a comb with wax paper over it.....

[@mattgilbert7347]

Something about the Cerberus does this. I had an EQ and preamp in the loop, and a compressor and RC Booster up front set up to take out those brittle highs and add some lower mids.

[@669rd]

Why should one choose this over the BOSS ME-80?

[@jurepecnik9054]

because every kid owns a big Boss pedal with too much knobs(trying to look cool) and this one looks just the vintage king of sexy with simplicity :) only thing it lacks (from ME80) is expresion pedal...

[@joedabron4846]

In my experience Vanessa the drive options of the ME80 (ie OD and ‘amp’) didn’t stack well, they didn’t interact like two ‘overdrives’ should going into each other. So it didn’t REALLY act like a pedalboard in the manual setting and I ended up getting rid of it for that reason. I‘m hoping the Nux would do this better - sounds like it would.

[@sixfoursoul2538]

DOES IT HAVE IT TRUE BYPASS OR DOES IT HAVE A BYPASS SWITCH PLEASE ANSWER THANK YOU

[@blueskycrying]

obviously awesome multi- effects but which do you like best the MOOER Red Truck or the NUX Cerberus and which would you prefer for live gigging? if you could only have one of course also like most of us I am a broke guitar player so what is affordable alternative to the Fractal Axe Fx,, AX8 or Helix any suggestions ?

[@kenmasters007]

a used pod HD would be the best bang for the buck if you also want/need amp emulation. These combo pedal boards are just pedals and FX only. Mooer is $50 cheaper doesn't have IR Cab sim, can't switch the order of the FX and drive/OD. If that matters.... Live gigs.. just use the pedals that you need. These combos are more geared towards bedroom players and non professionals.

[@RicardoDLF]

@@kenmasters007 any of these have the ability of footswitchable boost?

[@marcospiezia127]

Thanks for the awesome vid as usual! BIIIG QUESTION: How would you compare the Cerebus with the Mooer Red Truck which you also featured in your vids?

[@BrettKingman]

I can't compare, Marco. Both of those units were sold on within 24 hours, so my recollection of both is vague at best. The videos are a far better comparative reference than my memory this time. Thanks for watching, though!

[@marcospiezia127]

@@BrettKingman no worries thanks Brett!! Keep up the great work

[@AlexSanchez-yd6mf]

Great review. I bought one but it came without a power cord. Any suggestions?

[@geo0859]

Mine too (yersteday) ; any 9V - 500mA (or 0,50 A) will be ok.

[@mikemartin6554]

great demo...where in the USA can I order this?

[@tjborekvideo]

Amazon and Reverb both have dealers selling them. I just scored a used one with power supply + free shipping for only $229! Ordered Saturday morning and it arrived Monday.

[@goanguitarmusic1492]

Hi ! Great video! thanks! Is it possible to use the Cerberus in 4 cable method and use a load box and Cerberus IR at the same time? So I can use my amp's distortion, have the mods in the FX loop, and send the Load Box + IR to FOH or to my recording interface ? Thanks a lot.

[@eduvijes91]

Hi Brett! You've sold me the Valeton Dapper and now this?? No, seriously, cool review. How does this unit compares with the Dapper? I know it has more effects and possibilities, but tonewise (and specially the OD and DR sections), would it be an upgrade if I change my Dapper over the Cerberus?

[@YorkshireGuitarDan]

can the tap tempo still be used when in preset mode? or would you have to hold bank up to go back to play mode to then use the tap?

[@nuxaudio]

If you're in 2A, press A foot-switch you could enter to edit mode, then you could Tap Tempo.

[@martinkarlsson7021]

You can also add a midi switch for the tap tempo if you like

[@w.c.orielly9059]

Hi Brett, great playing.. question... can you turn the reverb on and off without using the control pedal... and if the reverb is on can you then switch the control pedal to boost and use it for solo boosting while the reverb is still on? I'd hate to have choose between reverb or boost... ty

[@davewillemsen2953]

Thanks for the demo! does anybody know what power adapter to use with the Nux Cerberus??

[@CarlitoM77]

Any 9v 500ma adapter should work fine.

[@jamesr6497]

Headphone use? Record direct to PC?

[@juancarlosgranados4425]

Brett, which do you think is the best: Headrush, Mooer Red Truck, Nux Cerberus, Tech 21 Fly Rig?

[@ziggy8757]

what about the valeton dapper, and dapper mini...those 2 are good as well

[@Purplino]

Fly rig, Valeton e similar are much more basic in their functions, I think

[@beannie60]

Line 6 M13 is the best to have for everything plus you have up to 12 presets.

[@Bobby_Digital37]

Brett, awesome demo!!! Did you by any chance try it with a wah in front of the Cerberus?

[@taurushamilton2739]

It’s perfect b4 the Cerberus, been doing that for years. I also put a Nux ModCore b4 the Cerberus, after the wah because I like some modulation sounds pre distortion like Phase and Univibe. However, those 2 effects in particular sound really great post distortion as well! NUX 4 da WIN!🕺🏾🕺🏾💯👏🏾👏🏾🤘🏾

[@CarlitoM77]

Hey Brett, I tried this unit using the 4CM but it was very noisy going through my tube amp. I returned it but am considering trying it again since you make it sound amazing! Did you notice any excessive noise/static using the 4CM? And just to be on same page the 4CM is guitar ---> NUX input....NUX 1st output--->amp input... modulation out--->amp return...amp send---> modulation in

[@BrettKingman]

It's been nearly two years since I had this unit, Carlos. But I can't recall any excessive noise and I rarely use noise gates in my post production. So, no, I don't think there was any bad noise going on with my unit. Also, whatever the manual says with regards to the 4CM cabling, you should follow. If you have further troubles I would suggest contacting the manufacturer via their website. Cheers, BK.

[@Ricardo_Rosa]

Are you able to run the 2 mods at the same time?

[@CarlitoM77]

Yes.

[@RenatoTammi]

Hi Brett, thank You For Your demos. I have a question about the Cerberus: Is it possible to run tremolo and phaser together, For example in the preset mode?

[@fuzzfizz]

It runs together in normal mode. You just use the depth knob to blend it in or out

[@beannie60]

If anyone is looking for something like this, you might want to get a Line 6 M13 with up to 12 presets, you can have 3 od 3 dis 3 delays and so on...

[@davidmerlin3344]

The reason for this pedal is SIMPLICITY.
