For players of all types looking for a wide variety of chorus sounds that can fit in any pedalboard, the NUX Ukiyo-E is the answer. The Ukiyo-E offers three models of legendary chorus effects. Two methods of setting your preferred modulation speed are at your command: the Rate selector to choose your preferred subdivision of notes and tap tempo to sync with the rest of your band in the moment. Music Experience guitar players enjoy the flexible routing and signal chain options, such as mono/stereo operation and buffered or true bypass, allowing them to get the best chorus sounds possible out of their rigs. Finally, the USB-C port allows for future firmware updates. For a versatile, lush-sounding chorus pedal in a space-saving package, the Ukiyo-E is difficult to beat.

What NUX Says...

UKIYO-E Translates As "Pictures Of The Floating World". UKIYO-E CHORUS (NCH-4) is a mini chorus pedal with 3 different chorus models including ST Chorus, SCH-1, and CE-1. You can switch the models by tapping the tap switch. Old-school Analog Chorus has always been warm but it was hungry for dynamic completion. NUX’s modern-tech DSP yields a perfect combination of both worlds: analog and digital. To achieve all of the UKIYO-E Chorus objectives, our engineers had to develop an algorithm that mimics the principles of BBD chips – the key component of Analog Chorus effects. UKIYO-E’s active low-frequency provides the Traditional Analog Chorus Tone discerning ears have come to expect in a true analog chorus pedal. Dynamic Tone and Noise-Elimination ability put UKIYO-E into a completely separate category from cheap analog pedals. Quality-grade BBD chips in large mass have become incredibly rare, so this method is not practical for making an affordable analog chorus device.Using DSP technology, NUX is able to offer a mini-pedal with a contrasting array of chorus tones.

ST CHORUS, SCH-1, CE-1

ST Chorus got inspired by MXR® Stereo Chorus, which is gorgeous sounding. We’ve consolidated the controls by eliminating the bass and treble knobs, now internally set at middle position, and we’ve eliminated the need for the bass filter altogether, which is now automatically corrected through the advancements of Core-Image™ sound modeling. SCH-1 tributes to ARION® SCH-1, one of the best sounding vintage analog choruses, producing an incredible variety of authentic tones, anything from subtle, clean chorus to a pretty realistic Leslie effect.Mini but mighty! It also supports Stereo input & output. (Use 1/4” TRS plug, and choose Stereo mode). The USB-C port is for firmware update. Connect USB cable to a PC and hold the footswitch to boot-up the device and to enter the DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode. Once connected you can do firmware updates using DFU updater software.
