Control Panel Overview:

1. Jack LOW Input: Designed for high-output guitars, like active pickups or guitars with humbuckers, this input reduces signal strength to prevent clipping and maintain a cleaner tone.
2. Jack HIGH Input: Designed for low-output instruments, this input maximizes guitar clarity and fullness, perfect for clean tones or natural overdrive. Ideal for single-coil pickups.
3. CHANNEL Select: With the amplifier on, press the CHANNEL switch indicator to cycle through presets 1 to 7.
4. Wattage Selector: Easily switch between 0.5W, 5W, and 40W to suit your playing environment. Use 0.5W for low-volume practice, 5W for rehearsals, and 40W for performances, ensuring optimal volume and tone quality.
5. SCENE Selectors: Choose from scene presets to quickly change tones, adapting to different musical styles. Each position combines specific amp and effect settings for easy sound customization, perfect for seamless tone changes during practice or live performances.

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 your chosen presets, simplifying the sound selection process.

Mighty Editor™ Example:

When you click the icon, the 7 presets will be colored.

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.

The SCENE switch, indicated on the device, allows you to select different SCENES within a preset. This feature is particularly versatile as it enables you to store and switch between various parameter settings and model configurations within each SCENE of a preset, offering enhanced customization for your sound.

6. Control Knobs: Adjust Gain, Level, Bass, Middle, Treble, Reverb, Presence, and Master volume.

7. POWER Switch: Activate the POWER switch to start the amplifier. While the amplifier is on, the CHANNEL indicator lights up.

Rear Panel

8. AC POWER Socket: Connect the supplied AC power cord to the AC power socket.

9. USB-B Port: Enables direct recording, MIDI communication, and audio streaming. Connect to your computer for easy digital recording, use MIDI with editing software, or stream audio for playback.

For WIN OS: Visit the product page to download the ASIO driver for recording.

For MAC OS: No driver is needed as the device supports CORE AUDIO.

10. NBT-1 BLUETOOTH MODULE Port: Connect the NBT-1 module to this USB-C port.

Note: Before connecting the NBT-1 to the MIGHTY 60 MKII, ensure the MASTER knob is set to minimum to avoid "POP" noise. When connecting a mobile device via Bluetooth to the MIGHTY 60 MKII's Bluetooth audio, you will hear a connection sound.

BLUETOOTH AUDIO CONNECTION: To play audio through the MIGHTY 60 MKII via Bluetooth, first go to "Settings" on your mobile phone, select "Bluetooth" and connect to 'NUX NGA-60'. When the Bluetooth audio connection to the MIGHTY 60 MKII is successful, you will hear a connection sound.

Note: Bluetooth audio and Bluetooth MIDI are independent, so they need to be connected separately. To use all features of the MIGHTY 60 MKII with the Mighty Amp app, both connections must be made.

11. Looper Pedal Input: Connect a looper pedal to instantly record, play back, and layer loops during performances.

Foot Switch Channel Select

Allows quick channel switching with a compatible footswitch, offering easy access to different tones during live performances for dynamic performance control.

13. Line Output: Connect directly to PA systems or recording devices, providing a clean signal transfer from the amplifier for live sound reinforcement or studio-quality recording without mic'ing the speaker.

14. FX Loop: Allows external effects to be incorporated into the signal chain, optimizing the sound quality of modulation, delay, and reverb effects by placing them after the preamp but before the power amp, for a clearer effect integrated with the main tone.

15. Headphone Output: Connect headphones for silent practice. Note that when headphones are connected, the MIGHTY 60 MKII's speaker is deactivated.

16. AUX IN Jack: Connect external audio devices for playback through the amplifier, facilitating the playing of favorite tracks or backing tracks during practice sessions.

Connecting the MightyTM AmpTM App to the Amplifier:

Open the Mighty Amp™ app on your mobile phone and navigate to "Settings" to select “Current Amp", choosing "MIGHTY 60 MKII". Then, tap "Click to Scan Devices" to search for and find "NUX NGA-60". Select "NUX NGA-60" in the app to establish a connection with the device and make it ready for use.

Note: The application uses Bluetooth MIDI to communicate with the device.

Note for Android OS: GPS authorization may need to be enabled.

Privacy Notes: 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 be used to infer the device's location. See: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/midi/package-summary#btle_location_permissions

Mobile App and Editing Software: For the mobile app and editing software, download Mighty Editor™ directly from the product page. Ensure your device's firmware version is compatible with both the editor and app versions to ensure smooth operation and access to all features.
