Nemesis Delay User’s Guide
Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the Nemesis Delay. This powerful stereo delay pedal features a collection
of meticulously crafted sounds ranging from analog, tape, and slapback to multi-tap, filtered, pitch-
shifted, bit-crushed experimental effects charting new sonic territory. With an intuitive and simple
control set, the Nemesis can work in a wide variety of musical settings, and the powerful MIDI and
Neuro App control options (iOS/Android) provide access to a vast array of additional tonal
possibilities.
The Nemesis is housed in a durable, extruded aluminum housing, packing rack mount power and
flexibility into a compact, easy-to-use stompbox.
The Quick Start guide will help you with the basics. For more in-depth information about the Nemesis
Delay, move on to the following sections starting with Connections. Enjoy!
