Glad you mentioned the feel as the first thing, it's often overlooked with plugins but it's a make or break feature for me. Nunchuck feels great to play.
Loving the flanger and the revamped EQ for mixing. I also really appreciate how low the latency is on all of your plugins. HyperTune allows me to reap the benefits of EverTune’s tuning stability without having to physically set up and retune. All around, your products are so beneficial for both songwriting and production!
Man, this JCM800 suite is exciting! Glad I didn't jump on NDSP's holiday sale to get the Tom Morello suite. I'm nabbing this instead! Thank you for this product development and release!
Fantastic product guys! I don't know how you pack it with such features and versatile guitar tone in one package with each release. Well done and congrats!
Nunchuck more like “f*ck-the-rest-up”, you really are going for cornering the market..best so forget the rest…you’re light years ahead with this product Rocklin’
Was short before buying the UAD Lion '68, but some things in the tones did not convince my ears so much, quite apart from the price. This one sounds better and more authentically to me and also offers a lot more useful features for fine-tuning, if you look for typical Marshall sounds, which cover everything betweeen vintage clean, Plexi-crunch up to modern high-gain. Good job!
@@polychromedsp I just purchased it and I must say I am VERY impressed. Everything is well thought, straight to the point and it sounds awesome! This is my new go to guitar plugin, period! Could you just please clarify the Comp pot on the main screen as there's a typo in the manual and it does not explain where it stands compared to the Comp pedal in the fx chain? My only (small) point about Nunchuck is that I wish it had a tremolo in the pre fx section. I don't want tons of effects, it is perfect like it is (I am heavily using wah/whammy/Octaver and in this area there's no better plugin than Nunchuck), just a tremolo and it would be 11 out of 10 for me :) Great job, I am so impressed!
The Comp pedal in the effects chain is placed before the amps, while the Comp knob on the header bar is placed at the end of the chain (after delay and reverb).
@@polychromedsp Thanks, another great idea! Sorry I've spent more time on it and there's one other feature I would love to see added. Currently midi assignment is only global. It would be great if you could also offer per preset assignment. There are so many things in this plugin that can be activated by midi it would make sense to allow it per-preset because we ususally do not have enough physical controllers to map everything (and it would not make sense), only for Xplode I would need 4 different assignments. I would need it for specific presets of course but with global assignement it takes up space on my midi controller for preset where I do not use Xplode (just an example). Thanks
Seems to be a nice all in one solution. Amp sounds are good, without the often typical digital shrill, scratchy treble, especially if it comes to this amp type, fx-collection is almost perfect and so are all the tweaking options. A polyphone octaver is very nice, it also reacts fast, without the usually too long latency, so are Spring/Plate and Wah, which even seems to be midi contollable, the only thing, I maybe miss is an Univibe, but the phaser is flexibly adjustable, so these tones at least come close. The overdrive/distortion section is flexible and the pedals also sound good, which is not always the case. Link is good and Hypertube (-12), especially in combination with Wide and Spread for me a killer option. (Almost always also on, if I use my guitar to midi solution and play synthesizers with my guitar. There it's called transpose, but for guitar amp sounds alone it's hard to find, as much as a good, latency-free polyphonic octaver.) Even more a dream with these amp sounds. The cabinet presets sections seems to work fine, although I maybe miss a little the meanwhile usual option, to choose different microphones and to adjust and combine them individually, to store some own cabinet/speaker presets or a least some more slots for own IR's. I also miss precise informations about the installed presets (cabinet, speakers, used microphones). This is the only real disavantage for me, maybe an update somewhen improves this section a little. I already have some nice Marshall plugins, but most probably I will give this one a chance, the basic tones are really good and it's more flexible than a lot of other ones. I usually first of all am only interested in good amp - cabinet sounds, but here even using the effects is fun. Well made!
Hey thanks so much for taking the time to give us such wonderful feedback! As always we’re always trying very hard to constantly improve and make the absolute best products possible for guitarists.
@@polychromedsp Obviously you are on the right way! While testing this plugin, I just have discovered your Hypertune and Wah plugins, great standalone plugins too. Especially the Hypertune is a gem, fast reaction plus polyphonic, exactly, what I always had been looking for, but hardly ever have found in this quality. But, although I have some (more or less) good Marshall plugins, these amps usually really seem to be the "holy grail" of amp simulation programming, at least for me, usually both low-end and treble sound wrong, or even if they do not, the harmonics reproduction is not correct or - also very important - the typical dynamical reaction to attack. Is at least my experience all over the years. Your plugin offers this typical British sharper, but precise treble, without the usual, digital scratchyness, nicely nails this typical, unique tone for me. A plus are the four voicings, which really cover everything from good JTM, Plexi, JCM up to JVM sounds and if this is not enough, your pedals do the rest. You plugin, also with the nice tweaking options stands out for me. So maybe this will become my christmas present for myself. Keep on rocking and thank you for your work!
Is there any plans to add a Uni-Vibe to any of your releases? I'm using a R Weaver FX Midnight Vibe pedal currently and it sounds amazing but wondered if an integrated one would be on the horizon?
We have pre-post amp stage switching for Multi-Mod and Shape EQ. You might need a daw if you plan to use parallel type routing, feel free to test the demo before purchasing. Thanks!
I now have all 3 ( HR Kiesel, Mcrocklin suite, and now Nunchuck. Im looking at upgrading my Interface and include a midi expression pedal and foot controller. what would you recommend priced mid range?
It says there are 250 something preset mix ready tones ready to go? Just curious why things keep having to get adjusted or cleaned up. Maybe I haven’t made it to preset yet in the video, but who knows ! Oh and is hypertune just a part of everything or can u still use it separately
Hey, Nunchuck come with 250+ presets installed. We use HyperTune as the transposer for Nunchuck, and we have a full version of HyperTune available as a separate product for users that want additional features, and to easily use it with other plugins that they own. Hope this helps.
Weird, it might be a limit of the demo. On the full version you can right click on any parameter and assign it, or by going to the midi menu and manual adding a mapping.
@poly NDSP has transpose options as well and they don’t work for recording purposes. Tons of artifacts and latency have not used hyper tune or this plug-in yet but I’m considering it. I’m assuming Darin is a guitar player who uses your stuff? Also Can I use hypertune separately with this or do u have to use it within suite
McRocklin has done a shootout with the Neural transposer which you might like to check out : ) We have a separate HyperTune plugin if you want to use it with your existing plugin collection, but if you don't have tones that you happy with then you might want to check out Nunchuck which uses HyperTune as the transposer. Please see our website as all of these plugins are on special right now.
@@feedthewolf6930look nowhere else. You will never use the Neural again. Just saying. If you watch Thomas over the years with Polychrome you will understand where this all comes from and why.
@@timothy5974 well I definitely haven’t watched Thomas long and it doesn’t matter what brand or transpose function is available digitally they all come with unwanted, latency, and unwanted artifacts. Some just more than others Neural DSP is made more for live stuff as far as transpose features concerned and it works pretty dang good for that purpose. The video I watched wasn’t comparing the plug-ins. It was comparing the actual QC hooked up to a computer to the hyper tune. But the transpose function on NDSP plug-ins don’t work a whole lot better than what was shown anyways so I guess that part is irrelevant I’m just hoping I can actually record a track transposed with this hyper tune and not have to apply it afterwards because I find that it takes away from inspiration and not tuning for other ideas that might pop up while recording
Oooooof the Vintage channel !!!!
PURE ROCK!
Oh man so awesome tones there! Amazing work!
Glad you mentioned the feel as the first thing, it's often overlooked with plugins but it's a make or break feature for me. Nunchuck feels great to play.
100% It's kinda everything, if the response and feel isn't right there's no point in building on-top of it! Thanks!!

☺️ ENJOY!
I thought it was a modded plexi lol....or is it 👀@@polychromedsp
I got both and honestly I prefer this in always. I think Morello's is a 50 watt anyway
Fantastic product guys! I don't know how you pack it with such features and versatile guitar tone in one package with each release. Well done and congrats!
THANK YOU! We try our best :)
@@ArchProjectionMusic a lot of that has to do with equipment as well. Not so sure it would be sounding like that with a $300 guitar.
Actually we tested it with a $99 guitar and it sounds fantastic. Have fun! 👍🏻
@@feedthewolf6930 you can slap a bridge & tuning pegs on a 2x4 and it’ll sound great. Just gotta be in tune.
@@danielvelkovski3156 pick ups and an input jack might help lol
Sounds killer dude, you guys killed it with this one!
Thanks Clayton!
Just purchased this,incredible plugin.Sounds awesome! Excellent features and this rivals Neural DSP.I love Neural but this plugin kicks major ass.
Thanks so much!
Duude! This plugin is packed with awesome features! Nice work guys!
Thanks Troll!
Well done Tommy and Luca! Base amp tone sounds good 😋
Congrats dude!
Thanks Charlie!

This sounds absolutely INSANE! 🔥 Bravo guys!
Thanks Dagan!
Thank God not another 5150. This thing sounds like it can do it all. I am all in for sure!
Loving the demo ! I just posted on ig threads today about mcrocklin suite! Haha love it for everything, now this ima have to get it soon !
Thanks so much!
Sounds great looking for to trying the demo
Enjoy!

Thanks very much, we spent a looooong time working on the amplifiers to make them ultra playable. Have a great weekend 👋🏻
Its doing a single amp only but doing it incredibly well omg
Each channel could be a different amp, as they're setup quite differently to each other. Enjoy! :)
Any discount on the Nunchuck for existing McRocklin Suite owners?
The intro price beats all offers currently 👍🏻
DUDE!!!!!!!!
👊🏻
Sounds awesome! Do you guys know until when the intro price is valid?
End of the month, thanks!

Hi Polychrome and Thomas! Just a quick question if you don't mind: complex parallel routings are possible? Thanks and Way to Go 🤟

String gauge and alternate tuning?
This video is 9-42 at Eb standard 👍🏻
I'd be all on board if it got Midi-Learn and support for PC Toggles commands to switch pedals on and off since my floor board only sends PC messages.
There’s midi learn and various other ways you can assign different parameters 👍🏻
@@polychromedsp Oh how to though? In my install it seems like MIDI PC Commands can only be used to change Presets :/
Weird, it might be a limit of the demo. On the full version you can right click on any parameter and assign it, or by going to the midi menu and manual adding a mapping.
Yo!
Standalone effects please. It’s easier for routing 😢 they sound very good. Sad to see them “locked” in a bigger VST
Everything in Nunchuck can be disabled so you have that freedom. Who knows in the future though. Thanks!
I really hope transposing for recording actually works at least a full step down.
Guitar is in drop c
Need to get to drop A#
HyperTune, which is also used as the transposer in Nunchuck works fantastic for this. Darin Clegg uses similar tunings a lot with it!
