NSU-1 Key Sustain

Sustain, that elusive holy grail for guitarists, is the focus of NCA's captivating NSU-1 Key Sustain pedal. Unlike traditional sustain effects that merely extend note decay, the NSU-1 introduces a whole new dimension to your playing by dynamically shaping the very nature of the sustain itself. At its core, the NSU-1 is a sophisticated envelope follower that tracks your picking attack and response. Turn the Sustain knob, and you'll unlock an incredible range of sustain possibilities - from glassy, piano-like tones that bloom and decay naturally, to thick, singing leads that seem to float in the air indefinitely. Crank it up, and you'll conjure out-of-this-world, synth-like pads that morph and evolve with every subtle nuance of your fretting hand. But the NSU-1's party trick is its Key mode, which allows you to lock the sustain to specific notes or chords. This unlocks a whole new world of expressive, almost organ-like textures, where you can sustain individual notes within a progression, creating lush, evolving harmonies. It's a sound that has graced the recordings of progressive icons like Steve Howe and Robert Fripp, who have long cherished the NSU-1's unique ability to elevate their guitar work into the realms of the sublime. Whether you're a shredder seeking endless sustain or a sonic architect craving new textural palettes, the NSU-1 Key Sustain is a pedal that will forever change the way you think about - and play - the guitar.
