NUX

Description

Built for players chasing the feel of real tubes without hauling an amp, the NUX Solid Studio MKII preamp, power amp simulator, and stereo IR loader brings the warmth and dynamics of analog tone to a digital format that feels alive under your fingers. Its advanced TSAC-4K modeling engine captures every nuance of a driven tube circuit—from touch-sensitive cleans to saturated crunch—while the Cyber IR stereo engine loads up to 120 cabinet, mic, and position combinations for authentic studio-grade realism. Eight classic amp models, flexible signal routing, and a vibrant 2.86" color display give you total control over your sound, whether you’re crafting tones at home or running direct on stage. Wrapped in a rugged die-cast aluminum shell and built for professional performance, the Solid Studio MKII delivers the tone, response, and flexibility of a full amp rig in a single pedal-sized box.

Innovative TSAC-4K Amp Modeling Technology

At the heart of the NUX Solid Studio MKII is its TSAC-4K amp modeling algorithm, which replicates the dynamics, feel, and tonal response of classic tube amps. By digitally modeling the negative feedback of tube circuits, it ensures organic, lifelike interaction between your playing and your gear. With eight iconic amp models available, this technology allows you to craft detailed, authentic sounds with the flexibility to switch between preamp and power amp combinations for maximum tonal variety.

Stereo Cyber IR™ Engine Delivers Realistic Sounds

The Solid Studio MKII employs NUX’s Cyber IR™ technology for true stereo impulse response reproduction. With 60 left and 60 right IR slots, plus built-in microphone, position, and distance tweaking, this pedal allows you to fine-tune your cabinet simulations with ultra-low latency (as low as 0.85ms). Whether creating lush soundscapes or dialing in tight studio tones, this technology ensures high-definition realism and depth in every setup.

Customizable Routing and Intuitive Controls

The Solid Studio MKII offers a flexible block routing system for complete signal chain customization, including independent amp, IR, EQ, and ambience effect blocks. With 128 preset slots and an intuitive 2.86" color LCD display, navigating and personalizing your settings is effortless. This makes setup simple, whether you're building ambient tones, experimenting with effects, or running amp-less configurations with your pedalboard.

Durable Aluminum Construction

The NUX Solid Studio MKII is crafted with a one-piece die-cast aluminum chassis, ensuring long-lasting reliability. Built to withstand the demands of live performances and studio sessions, its compact and lightweight design makes it easy to transport and integrate into any rig. Premium components, including high-quality A/D and D/A converters, guarantee exceptional performance and sound quality, no matter where you play.
