Source Audio Nemesis Delay ADT

The Nemesis Delay ADT is a versatile stereo delay pedal with an analog dry through signal path, full MIDI capabilities, and 26 unique delay effects ranging from vintage tape and analog delays to highly advanced pitch-shifting, reverse, filtered, and rhythmic delays. It is compatible with the Neuro Desktop Editor and Mobile App., Source Audio’s free effects editing software collectively known as Neuro. Neuro invites users to create, publish, and share highly customized presets with an expanded collection of adjustable parameters, additional delay effects, and advanced features.

The Nemesis Delay ADT is an updated version of Source Audio’s award-winning Nemesis Delay. The Nemesis ADT has all the tones and features that made the original Nemesis so popular and includes some key updates including an analog dry through signal path. Analog dry through means that the guitar’s dry signal maintains a 100% pure and unprocessed analog signal adding only the delay you choose. Other new features include enhanced MIDI functionality, 100 factory loaded presets, and an updated collection of delay effects easily accessible with the pedal’s intuitive interface. The updated Nemesis is also compatible with over 1,000 Neuro user presets created for the original Nemesis Delay.

Nemesis captures the full spectrum of delay effects, starting with a comprehensive collection of finely engineered vintage delay tones that perfectly capture every nuance and idiosyncrasy of the classic delay units on which they were based. The Nemesis Delay’s “Tape,” “Noise Tape,” and “Slapback” delays capture all the warmth, and color that give vintage tape delay machines like the Maestro Echoplex™ and Roland Space Echo™ their classic charm. The “Drum Echo” seizes the magic of a Binson Echorec rotating drum unit, known for its multiple playback heads and rhythmic delay patterns. The “Oil Can” effect delivers the sound of a 1950’s Tel-Ray Electronics Sound Chamber, an oil can delay famous for haunting and reverberant echoes with a touch of vibrato. The “Analog” and “Resonant Analog” delays beautifully achieve the resonant peaks combined with high and low frequency decay that typifies classic bucket brigade delay pedals. The Nemesis’ “Digital” delay turns-out pristine, high-definition repeats with or without filtering effects for a classic rack-system tone. 

At the other end of the spectrum, you’ll find a unique collection of experimental and contemporary delay effects. The “Shifter” effect generates polyphonic pitch shifting repeats at an octave (up or down), major or minor third, 4th, and 5th. The “Reverse” effect turns the delay around and journeys into the land of vintage psychedelia. “Helix” also reverses the delay trails then pitches them up an octave for soring angelic tones. 

Additional Nemesis Delay ADT features include stereo ins & outs, full MIDI functionality with 5-pin MIDI DIN and through ports, tap tempo with 15 different beat divisions, 8 onboard presets (128 with MIDI), bypass trails, external expression control, and a delay “freeze” function engaged by holding down the footswitch. 

Neuro offers Nemesis ADT owners a second and far deeper set of delay effects, adjustable parameters, and features to craft highly customized delay effects. It is free for iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows. Additional parameters found in Neuro include Diffusion, Distortion, Wow and Flutter, Advanced Filtering, Sample Rate Reduction,12 different Tap Tempo Beat Divisions, Polyphonic Pitch Shifting and much more. Neuro’s complete collection of delay effects includes “Sweeper” (a modulated filter delay), “Degrade” (with sample rate reduction), “Sequenced Filters,” “Warped Record,” “Chorus,” and more. Customized presets can be published to the cloud and made accessible to the entire Neuro Community. To date there are well over 8K published presets available for One Series pedals in Neuro.
