Tech21 SansAmp TRI-A.C. Triple Channel Overdrive Pedal

A Triple Channel, Programmable Stomp Box
SansAmp TRI-A.C. is a 3-channel programmable stomp box with 3 independent footswitches. It combines the warmth of a 100% analog signal path with the convenience of digital programmability.

It Just Doesn't Get More Fun Than This
You can dance the night away - to the music, not the gear. Whether you sway, twirl, rock, groove, or mosh, SansAmp TRI-A.C. won't get in the way of your creative flow. Put your 3 favorite tones, from sparkling clean to full metal mayhem, right at your feet.

It Just Doesn't Get Much Easier Than This
There are no complex mathematical equations or foreign languages to learn. Dial up the setting you like, double click on the footswitch, and it's saved in that channel. When you stomp on a channel, the setting is right there. Instantaneously. You can make changes on the fly, at the gig, even during your performance, without needing the owner's manual.

It Just Doesn't Sound Any Better Than This
SansAmp TRI-A.C. features Tech 21's highly acclaimed proprietary analog circuitry that captures the rich, natural harmonics and sweet overdrive characteristics inherent to tube amplifiers. Its built-in speaker emulation encompasses all aspects of mutiply-miked tube amp rigs. When you select one of the 3 pre-voiced amp styles, every dimension of each individual personality changes. It is not merely a difference in EQ or gain structure.

Tweed = Fender-style
British = Marshall-style
Calif = Mesa/Boogie-style

Each amplifier type has its own tonality and its own input sensitivity. Each interacts differently to the dynamics of your playing style and to the signal level of the instrument. For optimum flexibility and customization, other controls include onboard, 3-band active EQ, Drive and Level.

Travel Heavy or Light
While you upgrade your sound, you can downsize your arsenal. Or not. You get to decide how much gear you want to carry around. SansAmp TRI-A.C. gives you a solid foundation of tone that is compatible with any amp/combo, or you can:
