    Hi, Ola,
    It's good that you mentioned stereo operation of this unit. What about effects - may be Trident's effects has mono Input and stereo Output, just like it little brother Cerberus. So if you turn on e.g. single reverb or single delay it goes stereo but if you engage delay and reverb simultaneously only reverb will produce stereo output. But it's only suggestions (I have the Nux Cerberus)

    The new Donner arena 2000 is even more affordable and really worth a try for just half the price as the Nux. Nux and Donner have both amazing affordable units that really should fit the need of most of us non professional guitar players, take this in consideration before you spend insane amounts of money on the high end stuff that is just overloaded with features that most ff us will never need. cheers 🎸🎸

      The Arena was cool but I had to return mine. It would not connect to it's own app on my pc so I couldn't load custom IR's. On the second day all usb connectivity just stopped working so I couldn't even use it as an audio interface. Maybe just bad luck but I guess I'm sticking to plugins for a while.

      The Donner sucked for me, buzzed like a mf and I was getting electric shocks from it. Couldn't connect to the app or to the PC either. It was a disappointment. NuX hasn't let me down, currently got the MG400 and it's great.

    @GregLegarand 8 місяців тому +1

    I own a NuX Cerberus for a long time and it's like a Swiss army knife. It can be used in a very pedal-friendly mode, or with presets which is great for a live purpose.
    However, I feel like NuX missed the train with the Trident, compared to some similary-priced units.
    For example, I bought a Valeton GP-200. The sound may be a little boxy, but a BBE Sonic Stomp in the FX loop make it chug great.
    In addition, you can disable the IRs on the left output of the GP-200 and keep it enabled on the right, which is great for live : the left output goes through a poweramp and a cabinet, and the right output goes straight to the mixer ... but you lose the stereo.
    It would be great to have your views on this unit, Ola !

    Big displays crank the price up higher than it has to be. I'm perfectly fine with this. Shows that they care about more than inflating the price tag. Really have to wonder about the lack of stereo delays though. Obviously marketed towards bedroom guitarists, so that's a pretty glaring oversight.

  • @dshredmusic
    @dshredmusic 8 місяців тому +3

    I actually like this one a lot. Most multifx units are essentially production tools and have too much room for innocent mistakes on inexperienced guitar players.
    This one's more of a unit for the guitar player. So easy to use there's no fucking it up whatsoever.

  • @zekebeckman

    About the stereo, i would think that only some of the reverbs/delays are in stereo, it certainly was like this on my mooer ge300 lite (which i sold coz it started making problems, it had to be restored to factory settings, and i didnt back up my presets, so i lost everything). My band has a pause anyway, and i hope i can save at least 800 bucks for a good tube amp, until we start playing again, instead of my cheap "vintage" bugera)

    The pricing doesn't make any sense to me. They basically took the Nux Cerberus, added the amp section and doubled the price. And in the process apparently discontinued the Cerberus, because it has been out of stock for a while. Even their own MG-30 is 130-150€ cheaper, which makes the pricing even more weird.
    So many great options in a similar price range with the Trident. And if you add 150€ you are already getting HX Stomp. Or a just barely used HX Stomp for the price of this one new.

    Your mic sounded a little distorted on this one.

    All these modelers sound essentially the same to me. The only one that's really impressed me is the ISP Theta Max Pro. Not a modeler and it has an interface straight out of the 90's with no usb but damn those distortions and the chorus are in a class of their own. Worth checking out.

      I own the ISP Theta Pro MSX and you’re right, the tones can’t be beat. Sounds analog… and unique. People don’t realize that it’s NOT a modeler. It’s a tone shaping preamp. Absolutely kicks ass… well, except for the interface which is something from the 90s. 🤣

      @@Ericksonvision I have both the MSX and the latest rev of the Theta Pro. Absolutely love those processors! AND if you ever have any questions about them you’re a phone call away to talk to the man himself, Mr Buck Waller! F-ing Rocktron legend!

    If all you really want is something to chug then the NUX Metal Core Deluxe pedal ($80us) that also has a great noise gate built in is perfect. I run it through an old Peavey Bandit and it sounds great.. imo.

    Sounds like many other Chinese processors, btw, it's all one company, i think 😊
