Trinity Labs sets November 6 launch for the modular Artemis guitar rig

The UK-built hybrid combines reorderable analogue loops, zero-latency switching, amp models, NAM captures and MIDI control in one floor unit.

Trinity Labs will launch its Artemis floor rig on November 6 at 19:00 GMT. The UK company describes it as a hybrid system rather than a conventional multi-effects board: five physical loops can be reordered, a fixed stereo loop handles stereo devices, and a two-channel analogue mixer keeps parallel paths available without forcing every signal through digital conversion.

The analogue-only routes use relay switching with quoted zero-millisecond latency. Digital duties include 60 onboard effects, 13 amp models, eight cabinet models and Neural Amp Modeler A2 support in Full and Lite modes through TONE3000. Five footswitches can be mapped to rig functions, and two virtual loops let internal effects occupy positions in the same routing plan as physical pedals.

MIDI is central rather than an afterthought. Artemis provides MIDI in, out and thru, while Trinity Labs says its device library covers more than 500 products. That makes the unit capable of changing an entire mixed pedalboard and modelled rig from one preset, not merely switching the five hardware loops.

The first 50 Founder’s Edition units are scheduled for early-December delivery, followed by a 250-unit first batch in early February. Trinity Labs lists a £589 waitlist price. For players who want analogue pedals, captures and deep MIDI control in the same system, Artemis is a notably integrated alternative to choosing between a loop switcher and a modeler.

Why it matters

Artemis addresses a real divide between traditional pedalboards and all-in-one digital rigs. Its reorderable loops and modeler functions could let players keep favourite hardware while gaining preset-level routing and MIDI control.
