NUX Trident Amp Modeler & Multi-FX | TSAC-4K, 27 Amps

NUX · Trident · Amp Modeling & Multi-FX

Professional Amp Modeling. Every Effect You Need. One Pedal.

The Trident packs TSAC-4K white-box amp modeling, 27 amp models, 27 cab IRs, and a full effects chain into a gig-ready floor unit — with 1 ms system latency, MIDI in/out, and a 9V power supply you already own.

Core Technologies

Four technologies that make the Trident different

🎛️

TSAC-4K Amp Modeling

White-box physical modeling twice as complex as previous generations. Separate preamp and power amp simulations — tone shaped the way real amps work.

⚙️

Dual DSP Architecture

A dedicated DSP for effects and a separate DSP for amp modeling run in parallel — giving each domain full processing headroom with no shared overhead.

🔊

Cabinet IR Engine

27 factory cab IRs at 1024-sample resolution + 32 user IR slots. Four mic types with 3 positions each, plus low cut, high cut, and level controls per mic.

💻

Trident Editor Software

Deep sound design via the free desktop app (Mac/PC). Full parameter access, re-amping via USB-C, and IR library management — no menu-diving required.

Amp Library

27 amp models. 59 IR slots. Every tone covered.

Every amp model is built on the TSAC-4K engine — the same white-box physical modeling algorithm used by NUX's flagship units.

TSAC-4K Amp Models

Physical models of classic and modern amps built component-by-component. HIGH/LOW inputs and toggle switches for voicing give each amp authentic tonal range.

Factory Cabinet IRs

1024-sample cabinet impulse responses. Choose from 4 mic types at 3 positions each, with individual low cut, high cut, and level controls for precise tone shaping.

User IR Slots

Load your own or third-party cab IRs directly via Trident Editor. Choptones and other boutique IR makers offer dedicated Trident preset packs.

      4 patch cable jumping inputs: Connect directly to the power amp stage of your real amp — use the Trident purely as a preamp and effects unit in hybrid rig setups.

Effects & Performance

Full effects chain. 30-second looper. Ferocious live control.

The Trident is engineered for the stage. A complete multi-effects signal chain runs alongside the TSAC-4K amp modeling — all controlled by an intuitive layout with SELECT and PARAM encoders plus an LCD that shows you exactly what's happening in the chain, in real time.

Noise Gate Compressor Drive / EFX Amp + Cabinet EQ Modulation Delay Reverb Wah / Pitch 30s Looper

30-second phrase looper with PRE or POST positioning in the signal chain
Send/Return FX loop for integrating external pedals
MIDI In/Out (1/8" mini with included 5-pin adapters) for full rig control
EXP. Pedal input for expression pedal or external footswitch
SELECT & PARAM encoders for fast hands-on parameter editing on stage
LCD display showing block status and parameter values at a glance

Trident Editor & Studio

Deep sound design. Studio-grade re-amping.

The free Trident Editor (Mac/PC) gives you complete parameter control over every block in the chain — far beyond what's accessible from the hardware alone. Connect via USB-C and the Trident becomes a full USB audio interface for DAW recording, real-time monitoring, and re-amping tracks you've already recorded.

Trident Editor software for Mac and PC (free download)
Full preset creation, editing, and organization from your desktop
Custom IR loading and library management via editor
USB-C audio interface: record directly into your DAW at 48kHz / 32-bit
Re-amp previously recorded DI tracks through the Trident in real time
Firmware updates handled directly through the editor software
