NUX Monarch Amp Academy

compact guitar amp modeler, AMP ACADEMY STOMP, Monarch series modeler & profiler

Build Your Dream Amp—Mix, Match & Model Every Component, Right Down to the Tubes.

Powered by NUX TS/AC-4K Physical Modeling Algorithm.

The Amp Academy Stomp features NUX iconic TS/AC-4K Amp Modeling (White-box Physical Modeling algorithm), which is twice as complex found in previous versions. This led to design a new hardware platform with 2 DSPs, one to handle all the effects, and the other to handle the amp modeling algorithm. Now you even split Amp Modeling as separated preamp and power amp simulation. It means you can choose different power tubes to drive the creative sound.

Brand New Cyber IR™ Technology is a real Impulse Response reproduction with a premium algorithm that offers Microphone, Position, and Distance adjustments. Amp Academy Stomp gives you Stereo IR Capabilities with ultra-low latency.

USB Audio Interface

As laptops continue to include fewer USB ports, users often rely on USB hubs or adapters, which can disrupt the plug-and-play experience and potentially cause conflicts. The NUX Amp Academy Stomp also serves as a USB audio interface, minimizing setup time and freeing up space, allowing you to focus more on playing and creativity.

The Best of Both Worlds: Modeler & Profiler

Amp Academy Stomp gives you the freedom to leave your heavy amp at home — yet keeps the tone alive under your feet. Tweak gain, EQ, cab IR, boost, noise gate — craft your dream rig in minutes.

And now, NUX brings even more tone to the game with our black-box technology: Image! With our Image technology, you can load NAM, our single-layer Image Capture, into the Image Loader (into the AMP block).
