With the NUX NES-1 Grey, changing sounds mid-play is child's play. Its M-key design allows you to quickly switch between three pre-recorded sounds, while monitoring the active sound number in real time thanks to the second screen at the top. This mechanism is perfect for musicians who want to change tones or switch from one style to another in the blink of an eye.

For those who love rich, immersive sound, the NUX NES-1 Grey features two speakers: a 5-watt speaker for full-range sounds and a 1-inch tweeter for high frequencies. This combination delivers remarkable sound quality without the need for external speakers, ideal for small performances or group rehearsals.
