¶ Mightier Amp
Mightier Amp is an alternative, open-source application for controlling amplifiers from the NUX Mighty family.
At MITS, we use it with our NUX Mighty Air as an alternative to the official application, as it provides access to additional features and different ways of controlling the amplifier.
Some of its features include:
- 🎛️ MIDI controller support
- 🔋 Battery percentage display
- 🎚️ Custom settings
- 🎸 Amplifier parameter control
- 💾 Preset and configuration management
- 🔧 Additional features developed by the community
¶ Original Project
Mightier Amp is an independent, open-source project, originally developed by tuntorius.
MITS is not the original author of Mightier Amp, and the application is not official NUX software.
The source code and main development of the project are publicly available on GitHub:

¶ MITS Contribution — macOS Support
As part of our work at MITS with the NUX Mighty Air, we started working on making Mightier Amp available on macOS.
Based on the original project, we prepared and tested a version for Apple Silicon (arm64) and formally proposed its integration into the main project.
Our contribution was submitted to the original repository through:
¶ 🔧 Pull Request #143 — macOS
https://github.com/tuntorius/mightier_amp/pull/143
This means that the macOS work is not intended as a separate project, but as a contribution to the original Mightier Amp project.
Our goal is to collaborate with the original project and contribute the work we have done so that macOS support can become part of Mightier Amp.
¶ Mightier Amp Running on macOS
The version we use at MITS allows Mightier Amp to run natively on Mac computers with Apple Silicon.
The build currently published by MITS is intended for:
- 🍎 macOS
- 💻 Apple Silicon
- ⚙️ arm64 architecture
- 🎸 Tested at MITS with the NUX Mighty Air
This version is based on the work submitted to the original project through Pull Request #143.

¶ NUX Mighty Air + Mightier Amp
At MITS, we primarily use Mightier Amp with our NUX Mighty Air.
The Mighty Air is an amplifier we have been using for several years, and Mightier Amp allows us to explore additional ways of controlling it, especially now from macOS.
We have prepared a dedicated MITS Equipment Profile for the Mighty Air, including its features, technical specifications and our real-world experience with the amplifier:

¶ macOS Project Status
macOS support was submitted to the original project as a contribution through Pull Request #143.
Until this work is officially integrated into the main project, the build available from MITS should be considered a build derived from the work submitted in that PR, primarily intended to make Mightier Amp available for testing and use on macOS.
