Masamune is a legendary Japanese swordsmith of the Kamakura period (1185–1333). He produced some of the best knives known to man. The name Masamune is synonymous with quality, so here at NUX we forged a design of combined circuits, compression, dry signal, 2 stages of FET boost, routing…

NUX Masamune is a sound crafter pedal

It forges your dry signal, enhancing your sound before sending your signal to your amp and/or effects unit. The Booster adds a soothing color to your signal and, if needed, after adjusting the boost and drive levels, you can cut the high frequencies on your input signal with the Hi-Cut Toggle Switch.

Masamune's Kompressor does a remarkable job of managing and enhancing your signal: the Komp Level knob adjusts the final output level for the compressor, ensuring that your input and output signals are perfectly balanced. Sustain knob adjusts the compression ratio and increases sustain. Higher sustain levels will crush your signal harder when you hit the strings and provide longer, richer sustain. The Mix knob adjusts the transparency of the compressor from 50% to 100%, allowing you to dial in the exact amount of compressed dry signal mixing you want.

Clip Toggle allows you to choose the clipping range of your input signal. The Toggle UP position squeezes the signal for a voluminous sound, and Toggle DOWN opens up more space on your clipping range.
