What's going on my friends?!? SeanPierceJohnson here and welcome to this week's "Stompbox Saturday"!
Haven't we demoed a pedal called Cerberus before? Yes, yes we have. BUT...this is a much larger dog than the previous pedal. And even then, it's not JUST a pedal.
The Cerberus from NUX effects is a full on PEDALBOARD with multiple effects, MIDI Inputs and Outputs, a whole host of 1/4" inputs and outputs and even the ability to load IR files for the built in Cab Sim.
In this video I will share with you the ways I use the Cerberus.

This is the best Cerberus demo video I have seen. I used one for about a year in 4-cable method with a Marshall DSL20HR, but eventually moved to a Boss MS-3 because I could change amp channel and voice on my Blackstar tube amp using a simple TRS cable and no need for a MIDI relay device. Aside from that, I LOVED how easily I could create presets on the Cerberus without layers of on-screen menus. Just twist the knobs, press Save, choose location, and press Save again. Piece of cake. And honestly, the Cerberus is pretty transparent sonically. Can't say that about the MS-3, which colors my amp tone and needed a couple hours' of tweaking the Global EQ to make it neutral.

Thanks Tim! Very kind of you to say. I do miss the Cerberus. A friend of mine really wanted it and I wasn’t using it. He’s happy, so I’m happy. But NUX makes some great stuff!

Hi Sean, this is probably the most useful video I have seen so far on the NuX Cerberus. I must admit I am a bit lazy and did not go yet into the documentation, always considering trying to manage the beast by myself should be an asset for finding things easier in the rush of a show. But sometimes you can't do anything without reading the book.. Well, watching your video I probably understood most of the "basic" things I was still missing after 1+ year of use of this Multi-Effects. Thanks a lot for that ;) Cheers!

@SeanPierceJohnson 4 года назад

Olivier Bodin you’re welcome Olivier! I’m happy the video helped you get more out of your Cerberus. It’s a very good pedal but with so much in out place it can be difficult if you don’t at least glance at the manual. But no need to worry now 👍 have an awesome weekend.

Great vid and sweet playing! Question: in preset mode, do the delays and reverbs trail off when switching between presets?

@SeanPierceJohnson 3 года назад

hey man! honestly, I sold it to a friend sometime ago and can't remember off the top of my head but I'm inclined to believe it had trails

@delionband9501 8 месяцев назад

Excelente video , una consulta . Cuando uso el booster con la distorsion del amplificador no aumenta el volumen. Osea en el cerberus solo estoy usando el drive . Parece q solo funciona cuando está prendido la distorsion del pedal 😢, sabes por qué ?

@SeanPierceJohnson 8 месяцев назад

¡Hola! Lo más probable es que si estás usando el refuerzo en un amplificador con distorsión, solo esté agregando distorsión a tu tono. NUX tiene un "Diagrama de flujo de señal" en su sitio web aquí: www.nuxaudio.com/cerberus.html El "Boost" debería aumentar el volumen en ambos pedales de conducción en el Cerberus. Tendría que ver un vídeo que muestre el problema que tienes para ayudarte realmente. Siempre puedes enviar un correo electrónico a NUX y pedir ayuda también.

@metusaalemi 3 года назад

Just bought one last week. Totally love it, and the ease of use is just pure bliss! BUT still haven't found "the one" delay-setting for my use. I just love Petrucci-ish cheesy long digital delays with my soloing, so please let me know any good presets for that kind of use :D And thanks for an awesome video btw! Will definitely click subscribe-button and support your channel in future!

@SeanPierceJohnson 3 года назад

thanks Matti! if you want the Petrucci delay, definitely go for the 80's delay and the Plate reverb

@sergioragonese6461 Год назад

Great review!. I have a question: Does the tap tempo also works for setting up the time of the tremolo?. Or just the delay?.

@SeanPierceJohnson Год назад

i believe it's only connected to the delay...but i could be wrong. i don't have the Cerberus anymore (gave it to a friend) so I can't test it out.

@markwest5217 4 года назад

I’m looking for all-in-one pedal to run direct to PA. Would this work for that, or do you need a separate preamp pedal? I’m concerned that there’s no tone/gain controls when running clean...

@SeanPierceJohnson 4 года назад

If you use the Cab Sim, some IRs work well is a filter for a clean tone. But usually I set the Overdrive to be mildly crunchy but can easily be cleaned up with the volume knob on my guitar. It's a simple work around that I think does a good job. And if I need some more cleanliness, I add a compressor.

@ivan.ac96 4 года назад

In your honest opinion, does the effects sound better than individual budget pedals? I have around 400 dollars to make a pedalboard, so i'm torn between the Cerberus or individual pedals per se

@SeanPierceJohnson 4 года назад

honestly man...it really comes down to your preference. For me, the Cerberus is a great option for grab-and-go gigging. I like that I can have presets, or use it like a normal pedalboard. But for my main rig I use single pedals...it's easier to change things up and if one pedal goes out I can still use my rig. But if you've never used pedals before, the Cerberus might be a bit of a learning curve.

@mattgilbert7347 4 года назад

You could build a killer rig with $400 for individual pedals.

@nateonearth 3 года назад

Can you control the global tempo over USB to synch with a DAW?

@SeanPierceJohnson 3 года назад

Honestly, I never tried that. It’s not something I would think to do. If I remember correctly, you could actually adjust the delay in BPM rather than tap just by using the time Knob. Sorry I can’t give you a good answer.

@TheBluesine 2 года назад

Seems like a complicated unit compared to the Zoom G3N. Plus the Zoom has many more effects and is around similar price. Also the drive and distortion on this Nux is very harsh.

@SeanPierceJohnson 2 года назад

it's actually quite easy to use. either it's the individual pedals or presets and very easy to program. the Zoom might sound good and be cheaper but lots of it is digital, am I right? it's not really an apples to apple comparison.

A guitar built of EM trees ;)

@SeanPierceJohnson 5 лет назад

or is it EM drees???

@mattgilbert7347 4 года назад

The drives are waaay too dark. The rest is great, except I'd prefer to be able to run phaser & univibe pre-gain. Order re-routing would have made this a much better unit. Needs a preamp in the loop (or upfront) if you're going direct.
