Product Information
Full details
The NU-X NPO-2 Tutti Polyphonic Octave Effects Pedal is an ideal tool for guitarists and bassists who want to add depth and harmonic richness to their sound through polyphonic tracking. It offers high-fidelity octave generation with near-zero latency in a compact pedalboard-friendly chassis. While it provides immense sonic versatility, users should note that deep menu-less controls mean you must rely on the physical dials to balance your mix, which may take some time to fine-tune in a live setting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To integrate the NPO-2 Tutti into your signal chain, connect your instrument to the input and your amplifier or next pedal to the output. Ensure you are using a standard 9V DC negative-center power supply. To switch between bypass modes, consult the manual for the specific sequence of button presses while powering on the unit. Keep the device dry and clean the exterior with a soft, lint-free cloth. Since the device is digital, avoid exposing it to extreme heat or moisture, and use the USB connection exclusively for firmware updates as provided by NU-X.
