IR Loader and Power Amp Sim In a Pedal - NUX Solid Studio Review

How would you use the Solid Studio? Right at the end of the pedalboard? In the loop of the amp? Or would you use the "advanced" method and run it after the power stage of your amp?

Well hello there!!! A great video to wake upto!!

no preamp pedal in the chain?

it is a mid scoop eq pedal? couse it's how it sounds every tone.. no way anyone can play with it...

better than mooer radar ?

Great review ! Sounds awesome with the REVV G3 !

Nice review. Have you compared to the Joyo American and Acetone?

Great thorough video on this. I have an atomic Ampli-firebox but I’ve been interested in this.

It's possibile connection cabinet for guitar amp ?

Great Vlad. thanks NUX pronounced Nuu X but I say NUCKS ;-)

I got a radar radar exchange offer from my solid nux studio, what do you think of that?

Instead of timbre the radar is superior to nux?

Hello! How does it work with multi-effects to play the guitar directly to PA? I have a Zoom G5.

sorry, this sounds like crap...every cab has these thin harsh top-end...sounds cheap

One question please, can this be used as a guitar amp in a live situation? Thanks

I ran over mine with a truck.
It's...not that solid.

JK. I used a tank.

Interesting unit, thanks for doing the demo. Cheers.

Vladimir hi.
I’m a home musician/ songwriter with no technical experience and 64 years old so not very computer savvy. I bought the SS but only use it though my headphones because my amp and head are one so the way I’m understanding the hook up can damage the amp if done improperly.
So can it be done or is there something else I need to purchase.
I’ve watched so many videos I’m getting totally confused. None of the stores here in the us sell this so I can’t ask anyone to show me how it’s done. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated.

Best regards

Can it Run in Stereo with a rig?

Hello, does this pedal support acoustic IRs like the 3SIGMA of j45, taylor 814, etc? I appreciate your response in advance.

I'm finding my SS (that's an unfortunate acronym..yikes!) a little bright and harsh with the Power Amp side on. Perhaps an EQ pedal like a GE-7 between preamp pedal and SS (there it is again, I'm so sorry, I am too lazy to type it all out...okay Solid Studio...that's better)?

Is the output mono or stereo?

I bought the pedal and I get a high pitch sound when using xlr output no matter what I do. with or without any input and with both footswitches on or off. Any help?

I bought one after watching your review. So now I have a dilemma, as to which set up would be safe:
1. Amp head -> Nux SS Input (Obviously with speaker and 4db+ selected) -> Nux SS thru to Speaker CAB & Nux SS Output to Audio interface.
2. Amp Head -> SS in -> SS out to Audio interface.
3. Amp head -> SS in->Thru to Load box -> SS out to Audio interface.


Also I have got 4/8/16 ohm spkr out, so which one would be suitable? btw I am using EVH 5150 50W amp head.
Best Regards.

I just bought this unit and though it sounds fine when ever I plug the balanced out into a PA it screams like crazy and havent figured out why that is. I'll confess that I'm using a Mooer DC power brick but it is still accurate power for the unit and it would only be buzzing if there was a mile-amp issue. Has anyone else had this problem?

Excellent review but I'm confused - can I simply put the guitar into the NUX and go straight out from the NUX into input of an amp?

Is it an emulated headphone output?

I’m sorry for being a noob but if I plug in my guitar>pedalboard> solid studio> PA system will it sound like I’m using a combo amp or a real amp?

Hey... Very helpful Video. I have a doubt though! Let's say I want to hook this to a ZOOM G3XN (use the preamp) and mute the cab sim there. Will it be okay to use the built-in Modulation effects like Delay and Reverb after the preamp? Will it function as a generic setup of putting effects in between the preamp and power amp? Any reply would be very helpful...

Thanks for demoing amp > SS > cab. Any idea what sort of power it can handle without clipping? Would it take a fairly cranked 20w head?

I'm having trouble with this, trying to post everywhere. So, I am running my pedals, into a terror stamp, in there I am running delays and stuff in the loop back into terror, then from the speaker output of the terror into the input of SS5 / then did what you did there, with speaker cables and stuff in SPK mode, the THRU goes out to my cab. and the SS5 output into the interface. but no sound at all. I think im not doing anything wrong since I just did what you did there. hope nothings broken.

If I would like to go Ampless and I have this Nux Studio Would I still Needed a Preamp pedal or not? I'm a noob with IR's and Amp simulator pedals! Need Help!

I want to pair this with my pedalboard + jc120, Im not going ampless but I think the super clean jc amp will be a good combo with this

Do I need a pre-amp to use with this unit? doesn't it have a basic preamp built in just for signal leveling?

Great video. Can the Solid studio be used as follow: guitar -> Nux SS -> input of solid state amp (class A, clean settings)?
Thinking of getting the Nux SS and the Nux duotime and run two identical Solid state amps in a stereo/dual ping-pong setup.
