The NUX TRIDENT is a top-shelf modeler designed for live applications and studio use. Built like a tank with a one-piece die-cast aluminum case, it features an abundance of I/O options and world-class amp modeling. The TRIDENT boasts newly updated TSAC-4K Amp Modeling (White-box Physical Modeling algorithm), which is twice as complex as previous versions, powered by a new hardware platform with dual DSPs. Premium A/D & D/A converters and analog circuits ensure a clear sound with low noise levels.

• World-Class Amp Modeling: The TRIDENT features the newly updated TSAC-4K Amp Modeling algorithm, twice as complex as previous versions, utilizing a dual DSP hardware platform. It includes 27 meticulously modeled amps with features like HIGH/LOW inputs, 4 inputs for patch cable jumping, and toggle switches for voicing, offering maximum tweaking possibilities.
• Powerful IR Loader: The TRIDENT is a robust IR loader, including 27 Cab IRs at 1024 sample resolution. Fine-tune your cab tone with 4 microphones (3 positions each) and adjust IR low cut, high cut, and level. Expand your library with 3rd party IRs using 32 additional slots, with automatic format conversion via Trident™ edit software.
• Intuitive Control Layout: With a knob layout, toggle switches, and footswitches akin to stomp boxes, the TRIDENT allows for free engagement/disengagement of effects. SELECT & PARAM encoders with an LCD display provide detailed parameter information, block order, and status.
• A Powerful Studio Device (USB-C Audio Interface): The TRIDENT functions as a perfect USB-C Audio Interface for guitar, ideal for home studios and re-amping. Download the Trident Editor™ to edit patches and set up USB routing. Record tracks to your DAW or re-amp previously recorded audio. *Caution: When using as a USB audio interface, remember to adjust your PC’s playback volume from minimum to desired level to protect your ears, as the TRIDENT does not control PC system playback volume for optimal dynamic range.
• Ample I/O:
  • USB Port: Connect for firmware updates, USB audio recording, or editing with Trident™ software. To enter DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode, connect the USB cable and hold UP & REVERB footswitches while turning on.
  • 1/8" MIDI IN / OUT Jack: Connect external MIDI devices using the included 1/8" to 5 pin MIDI adaptors. (Do not connect audio devices here to prevent malfunctions).
  • MASTER VOL Pot: Adjusts overall output level. Start from minimum and increase to a comfortable volume (12 o'clock is usually loud enough). Protect your hearing.
  • 1/4" SEND/RETURN Jacks: Connect external pedals. SEND impedance: 1K Ω. RETURN impedance: 100K Ω. Modes include Serial, Parallel, and Branch (Branch mode only SENDs the signal out).
  • Other I/O: Includes 2 balanced XLR outputs to the PA system, PHONES output for monitoring, and EXP. PEDAL input for an external expression pedal.
• Phrase Looper: The TRIDENT includes a 30-second phrase looper with a configurable position as PRE (recorded loop is clean, processed by TRIDENT Amps and Effects) or POST (recorded loop is already processed by TRIDENT).
