Operation

Control Panel Overview

1 LOW Input Jack: Tailored for guitars with high output, such as active pickups or guitars with humbuckers, this input reduces signal strength to prevent clipping and maintain a cleaner sound.

2 HIGH Input Jack: Designed for lower output instruments, this input maximizes the clarity and fullness of your guitar's sound, perfect for clean tones or natural amp distortion. Ideal for single-coil pickups.

3 CHANNEL Selector: With the amp on, press the CHANNEL switch indicator to change from presets 1~7.

4 Wattage Selector: Switch easily between 0.5W, 5W, and 60W to match your playing environment. Use 0.5W for low-volume practice, 5W for rehearsals, and 60W for performances, ensuring optimal volume and tone quality.

5 SCENE Selectors: Choose from preset scenes for quick tone changes, catering to different musical styles. Each position combines specific amp settings and effects for easy sound customization, perfect for seamless tone shifts during practice or live play.

Mighty Amp™ App example: To set specific presets (1, 3, 5, 7) for quick access, select them and click the Active icon. Once done, pressing the PRESET switch will cycle through these chosen presets, streamlining your sound selection process.

Mighty Editor™ example: Select the presets you wish to use (e.g., 1, 3, 5, & 7) and confirm your choice by pressing the icon. The Mighty Editor™ will display the active preset, and the interface will indicate your selections with the icon, making it clear which presets are activated for quick access.

6 Control Knobs: Fine-tune your sound with Gain, Master, EQ (Bass/Middle/Treble), Reverb, and Presence.

7 POWER Switch: Toggle the POWER switch to boot-up the amplifier. While the amp is on, the CHANNEL indicator will turn on.

Then, tap "Click to Scan Devices" for the app to search and find "NUX NGA-60." Select "NUX NGA-60" for the app to establish a connection with the device, making it ready for use.

NOTE: For Android OS, you may need to turn on GPS permission.

Privacy Note: We do not use your GPS to track you. However, for Bluetooth scanning, Android requires apps to request LOCATION permission. This is because the presence of nearby BTLE devices could potentially be used to infer your device's location. [See Android documentation on BTLE location permissions]
