Nexus-GK DAW Set

The Nexus-GK DAW set is a complete bundle for getting a Nu-Multi–equipped guitar into a computer-based setup: multichannel audio to your interface/DAW plus on-instrument controls that send MIDI to your rig.

What’s inside (core pieces)

• Nexus-GK (breakout box): six TRS jacks carrying 12 discrete audio channels (use TRS-to-dual-TS “Y” cables to fan out).  
• 12 V power supply for low-noise operation.
• Multichannel (19-pin, LEMO-compatible) cable for a single, rugged instrument-to-box connection.
• 19-pin output jack (installs on the guitar) + Internal Breakout board to route all pickups/controls to that jack.
• GK-MIDI module for MIDI out (5-pin DIN) and Roland-compatible 13-pin; converts your guitar’s CV knobs/switches to MIDI CC/PC (note: no pitch-to-MIDI).
• Control hardware: typically one or more CV pots and one 5-way CV switch so you can send useful MIDI from the instrument (e.g., volume, pan, mod, patch select).  

What it does (the DAW use-case)

• Per-string (or per-source) audio goes out of Nexus-GK as 12 analog channels to your audio interface, then into your DAW as separate tracks—ideal for per-string processing, panning, re-amping, etc.
• Your onboard controls (the included CV pots/switch) become MIDI messages, so you can ride levels, switch patches, or tweak plug-ins from the guitar while recording. (Again: Nexus-GK does not do pitch tracking.)
• Scales to 6, 7, 8 or more strings.  Typical signal flow
  Guitar (Nu-Multi + Internal Breakout) → 19-pin instrument jack → Multichannel cable → Nexus-GK
• Audio: Nexus-GK TRS outputs → audio interface → DAW (12 channels)
• Control: Guitar CV/switch → GK-MIDI module → 5-pin DIN (to MIDI interface/DAW) or GK-13 to compatible gear. 

Typical signal flow

Guitar (Nu Multi or Nu Capsules → Internal Breakout) → 19-pin output jack → 19-pin cable → Nexus-GK

• Audio: Nexus-GK TRS outputs → audio interface → DAW (12 channels)
• MIDI: On-instrument CV/switch → GK-MIDI → 5-pin DIN → MIDI interface/rig

What’s not in the box (so you’re aware)

• Nu Multi or Nu capsules are not included. Choose your pickup set separately.
• Your audio interface and TRS-to-dual-TS Y-cables are also not included.

Note: Please take note that the Nexus-GK Basic Set does not include the GK-MIDI board.
