Designed by Bassist for Bass Lovers
We collaborated with American bass player Melvin Lee Davis to create MLD Bass Preamp & DI.

"Melvin Lee Davis is an American bass player, vocalist, keyboard player, producer, TV composer and engineer based in Orange County, California. He is the music director for Grammy-award winning artist Chaka Khan and has recorded with The Pointer Sisters, Lee Ritenour, Bryan Ferry, Patti Austin and Gladys Knight & the Pips"


Volume Knob
Adjusts the overall output volume of the pedal. Ideal for fine-tuning the output on clean tone, it also controls the DI output volume.

Blend Knob
Adjusts to blend between the clean signal and overdrive signal. The clean signal remains as unity gain, allowing for fine control of the blend ration.

Drive Knob
Adjusts the Gain level and sets the saturation level in the overdriven signal.

3-Band Equalizer with Middle Frequency Selector:

  • Bass: +/- 12dB @40Hz
  • Middle: +/- 17dB @160Hz to 1000Hz
  • Freq.: 160Hz ~ 1000Hz
  • Treble: +/- 12dB @8000Hz

DI Output
Balanced XLR Output carrying the mic-level output signal, either affected or unaffected depending on the Pre-Post switch.

GND LFT (Ground / Lift) Toggle Switch
Disconnects the signal ground on the DI out to break any ground loops. Toggle the switch to the LESS noisy position; it can be either GND or LFT depending on the room, stage or studio condition. Switch does not effect the 1/4-inch (6.5mm) output.

Impulse Response (IR) Toggle Switches
You can activate/deactivate the IR cabinet simulation for both DI out and 1/4-inch (6.5mm) out separately. Use the appropriate IR toggle switch to turn ON/OFF the emulation for the output you choose.

Main OUT and Through
You can use the main "OUT" and "THROUGH" output to get the dry signal for bass amplifier connection.

When you activate the "OUT IR" cabinet simulation, you can connect the pedal to any FRFR speaker, directly to a mixer or audio interface. "THROUGH" output will remain bypassed either the "OUT IR" is activated or deactivated.

DI Out, Auxiliary Input and Headphone Output
On the LEFT SIDE of the PEDAL, you can access the XLR output for a mixer and/or audio interface connection, and you have the option of activating the IR cabinet simulation.

There is a 1/8-inch (3.5mm) auxiliary input to connect a music player, and headphones output for silent practicing or monitoring (please check the USB connection).

Headphone output is related to DI out, when you activate the DI IR simulation, headphones output will be simulated.

NUX Bass Preamp + DI Software
You can connect the pedal to your Windows / MAC computer to use the editor software. You can load your own IR files and control various other settings. Supported IR file: 48 kHz / 24-bit, 1024 Samples

Bass Amplifier Models
MLD Bass Preamp + DI pedal comes with 2 amplifier models, you can select and control the amps and the Noise Reduction on the software easily.

Speaker Cabinet Models (IR)
There are 8 IR presets (4 factory / 4 user) in the Melvin Lee Davis Bass Preamp + DI, and the pedal comes with the selection of speaker cabinet IR files created by NUX. Also there is an independent volume control for the cabinet simulation to adjust the IR level.

Signal Routing
There are 3 ROUTING OPTIONS for the USB audio streaming:

  • NORMAL: You can create your tone by using the pedal, and it will send the processed signal to the recording software.
  • DRY OUT: You can record your bass guitar without any preamp effect and IR simulation. This option is useful for re-amping.
  • REAMP: You can playback a recorded track on the recording software, and send it to another track. MLD Preamp will process the signal while recording to a new track. (see: Re-amp Routing)

Recording With Melvin Lee Davis Bass Preamp
You can record your bass guitar without using any audio interface. A driver-free* solution helps you produce music with direct connection. You can use the headphones output for monitoring, you will hear both your guitar and the audio from your computer.

*Driver-free: macOS only. It's suggested that all Windows users install the NUX Audio Driver to ensure better performance. Please download on the Support page.

Nice ribbed shirt. Heavier then a t-shirt for cooler weather.
This is a nice shirt. It is ribbed and provides some warmth for cooler days. The material is nice and the sizing is as expected. It has good stretch and the color is as shown.

Great quality and very cute!
I can see this top becoming a real staple in my wardrobe, as I love a simple black tee and this is an upgraded version of that. The material is thick enough to not be see through, but light enough to be comfortable even in hot weather. While it is very tight fitting, I like that the neckline is high and the sleeves are a bit longer lending it a very classy, polished look. I typically always wear a small in tops, but based on other reviews, I went with a medium and I’m glad I did. It fits perfectly and I think a small would have been too snug. If you are in any way self conscious about your shape, there really isn’t any hiding in this top so bear that in mind; it is very form fitting. I recommend this top and I will likely order another color because it just feels like a good top to have on hand for a quick, put together look.
