Can I use the Nemesis in my amp’s effects loop?
The Nemesis’s audio inputs can handle up to 8.76 dBu or 6.0 Volts peak-to-peak, which allows it to
work in most amp effects loops. Be sure to check your amp’s documentation to verify that the
maximum send level is less than the Nemesis’ maximum input level.

Program Change Messages
By default, the Nemesis responds to Program Change messages as shown in this table:

008 to 127
To bypass the Nemesis using Program Change messages, just set up one of the 128 presets with the
effect bypassed, and recall that preset when you need to bypass the Nemesis.
Clock Messages
The Nemesis responds to MIDI beat clock (decimal 248, hex 0xF8), which should be sent at a rate of
24 ppqn (pulses per quarter note). The Nemesis does not respond to clock start (0xFA), clock
continue (0xFB), or clock stop (0xFC) messages. The Nemesis does not respond to MIDI timecode.
Continuous Control Messages
Many parameters can be controlled via MIDI. A complete listing is too large to include in this manual.
Check the Source Audio website’s Manuals and Documentation section for full Nemesis MIDI
documentation.
Custom CC Mapping
The default MIDI map provides control over parameters using specific Continuous Controller
messages (described in the Nemesis MIDI Implementation document available on the Source Audio
website). It is possible, however, to override the default map and create a custom mapping. There
are several important things to note when setting up a custom MIDI CC mapping:
 Custom MIDI CC mappings are global, meaning they are not unique per preset. The CC
mapping will apply in all situations, regardless of which preset is active.
 Important! By creating a custom MIDI CC mapping, the default CC mapping described in the
MIDI Implementation document will be cleared and can only be recovered by performing a
