NOD-1 Overdrive Guitar Effect Pedal
One of the most wanted overdrive and distortion pedals produced in mid 90’s is
now in one pedal with pocket size. NUX Horseman is a homage of the legendary
centaur pedal. Horseman offers a lot of sound that normally you can get from
two pedals. There are 3 dials up for primary settings and 2 modes called Gold
and Silver. Gold mode is the mimic of the classic gold centaur overdrive
pedal, and the Silver mode is a powered version with an extended gain range
(silver centaur). The unique characteristic design of the transparant
overdrive pedal is voltage converter driving 18 volts to the OP-AMP which is
the core of the circuit. At this voltage the response is different than 9
volt, since its slew rate depends on the voltage supply. The higher voltage
supply, the higher order of harmonics, the OP-AMP will generate, and the more
“metallic” sound.
Depending on the settings of the control knobs, the pedal can act mostly as a
clean boost, adding mostly volume and minimal coloring to the sound. This can
be used to drive the input valve stage of the amplifier to use the
characteristic distortion sound of an overdriven guitar amp. Alternatively (
or additionally) the controls can perform waveform clipping. (Cause the
germanium diodes are discontinued, we especially select the Schottky diodes to
replicate the waveform clipping.) The “gain” knob is a double potentiometer (
a “dual-ganged gain pot” ), which controls bass and middle frequencies. Other
knobs are treble and volume.
Another advantage of the Horseman is, it has
optional True Bypass / Buffer Bypass modes for running the pedal. Push and
hold the footswitch and power up the pedal to select True (Red LED indicator)
or Buffer (Green LED indicator) bypass mode.
