Next-Gen TS/AC-4K Dual-DSP Amp Modeling

Why NUX's amp modeling technology stands out from the rest of the market. 

The Amp Academy Stomp features two powerful processors that operate independently. This means both can run independently at full quality with zero compromise or lag.

  • One chip handles amp modeling — simulating tubes, power, and tone stacks.
  • The other chip handles effects (like delay, reverb, compression, etc.).

Additionally, the Amp Academy Stomp uses premium A/D & D/A converters and analog circuits to achieve a clear sound with low noise levels.

Cyber IR™ Technology

Built In Studio Realism

NUX’s next-generation Cyber IR™ Technology faithfully recreates the sound of real amps and speakers. Complete with virtual microphone, position, and distance controls so you can dial in the perfect mic setup without ever touching a stand.

Create Your Ideal Signal Chain

The Amp Academy Stomp gives you nine flexible effect blocks — including noise gate, compressor, amp, EQ, send/return, cab IR, delay, and reverb — that can be arranged in a wide variety of combinations. Your signal path will always end with IR, delay, and reverb blocks; the delay and reverb can be rearranged.

What does it mean to create signal chains?

This means you can fully customize the order of your effects in your Amp Academy Stop — just like rearranging pedals on a pedalboard.


You’re not stuck with a fixed order (like compressor → amp → reverb).


You can drag and drop the effect blocks in any sequence to create your perfect signal flow.

What does it mean to have nine flexible effect blocks?

These are the available effect modules (or “blocks”) inside the Amp Academy Stomp:

  • NG = Noise Gate (cuts unwanted hum or hiss)
  • CMP = Compressor (balances your volume and adds sustain)
  • EFX = (chorus, phaser, etc.)
  • AMP = Amp model (your main tone/drive character)
  • EQ = Equalizer (fine-tune bass, mids, treble)
  • S/R = Send/Return loop (for connecting external pedals or amps)
  • IR = Cabinet simulation (controls how your “amp” is miked and sounds in the room)
  • DLY = Delay
  • RVB = Reverb

You can turn each one on/off, edit it, and place them wherever you want in the chain.
