New Source Audio SA260A Nemesis Delay ADT One Series Guitar Effects Pedal

The Return of the King

The award-winning delay pedal that catapulted Source Audio into the hearts and pedalboards of the guitar effects pedal universe is back and better than ever. The Nemesis ADT has all the tones and features that made the original Nemesis a go-to delay of guitarists and keyboard players of all genres, plus some excellent new updates including a 100% unprocessed dry signal path, 100 factory loaded presets, and an updated collection of delay effects easily accessible on the face of the pedal. Nemesis ADT is also compatible with over 1,000 Neuro user presets created for the original Nemesis Delay.

100% PURE DRY SIGNAL PATH

The Nemesis Delay ADT supports a long-requested feature unavailable in the original Nemesis, an all-Analog Dry signal path. The term "analog dry through" means that the instrument's dry signal remains completely unprocessed, maintaining a 100% pure analog signal path that runs parallel with the pedal's delay effects. The result is a dry signal that remains completely true to the incoming tone with zero latency.

Vintage Vibes & Modern Ambience

All the delay effects that made the original Nemesis Delay so popular are still present in the Nemesis Delay ADT, but some of its most well-regarded delay engines previously included with Neuro (Source Audio's free effects editing software available for Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android) have moved to the face of the pedal. New additions to the face of Nemesis include:

Drum Echo - based on vintage Binson Echorec rotating drum units, known for their multiple playback heads and rhythmic delay patterns.

Oil Can - captures the sound of a 1950's Tel-Ray Electronics Sound Chamber, a unit known for its ghostly and reverberant echoes created with a rotating can of electrolytic oil.

Resonant Analog - based on the tone of darker bucket brigade chips with an especially soft echo that dramatically degenerates with each passing repeat.

Neuro is Power!

Job one in the development of the Nemesis Delay ADT was to create a great sounding, flexible, and easy-to-use delay pedal. Out of the box, that's exactly what Nemesis ADT is - plug it in, select from the twelve onboard delay engines and make beautiful music. But there is much more here than meets the eye - the truly "Big Idea" behind our One Series pedals was to give musicians a second, far deeper, set of performance ready presets and effect editing tools with which to find the perfect tone. Neuro is a free download for iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows. It offers a huge collection of additional delay engines, 1,000s of Neuro Community created presets, and a powerful effect editing workshop.

Nemesis Delay ADT: The Sound, The Sound, The Sound!!!

At the end of the day, it's all about the sound. The Nemesis Delay ADT features a beautifully engineered collection of effects that span the gamut of delay possibilities, from perfect replications of iconic delay units like the Maestro Echoplex, Roland Space Echo, and classic analog bucket brigade delay pedals to forward-looking, ambient tones like reverse, pitch shifting and filtered delays. Each sound was painstakingly composed by Source Audio's effect aficionado and legendary audio engineer, Bob Chidlaw.

Onboard Delay Engines

Slapback - a short single-repeat echo based on early tape delay machines.

Digital - a classic clear digital delay with optional delay time modulation and intensity-based filtering. The Nemesis features a 56-bit signal path with a 24-bit delay line for immaculately clean repeats.

Diffuse - a delay line with a diffusion effect that smears the attack of the repeated signal for an ethereal "oil can" character.

Analog - the sound of classic bucket brigade analog delays; warm, resonant and increasingly lo-fi.

Tape - a detailed re-creation of classic moving-head tape delays with characteristic flutter, warmth, and color.

Noise Tape - a grittier, darker re-creation of fixed-head tape delays.

Resonant - a Carbon Copy inspired delay with a quickly degenerating echo.

Shifter - a delay with polyphonic pitch-shifting on the delayed signal.

Helix - combines reverse delay with an octaver for a shimmering effect.

Reverse - the classic reverse tape sound with a pulsing tremolo effect.

Oil Can - captures the sound of a 1950's Tel-Ray oil can delay.

Drum Echo - seizes the magic of a Binson Echorec rotating drum delay unit.
