Neural DSP Quad Cortex Digital Floor Modeler
The Most Powerful Floor Modeler on the Planet
The Neural DSP Quad Cortex runs four amp models, stereo reverbs, and a plethora of other effects at the same time without breaking a sweat. It ships with 50+ amps, 50+ effects, and 50+ IRs, backed by an ever-expanding collection of guitar and bass algorithms. A 7" multi-touch display makes building and tweaking your rig quick and intuitive.
A Vulgar Display of Power
Six cores, four SHARC+ and two ARM Cortex-A5 running at 500MHz each, give the Quad Cortex a ludicrous amount of processing capacity. That headroom means limitless sound design possibilities, from massive multi-amp stacks to deep, layered ambient effects chains, all running at once.
Neural Capture
Using biomimetic AI technology, the Quad Cortex can learn and replicate the sonic characteristics of any physical amp, overdrive, or cabinet with unprecedented accuracy. Its neural network perceives sound much like the human ear does, which is why captures come out so natural. Capture your own rigs, share them, and download the free captures Neural DSP is building with top producers and sound designers, all alongside the unit’s full circuit models.
Unbelievably Compact
Advanced mechanical design and manufacturing techniques let Neural DSP pack all that power into a surprisingly small floor unit. It measures just 29 x 19 x 4.9cm and weighs only 1.95kg (4.2lbs), so it fits easily on a crowded pedalboard and travels light to every gig.
Expand Even More With Cortex Cloud
Discover users, presets, and Neural Captures through the Cortex Mobile app for iOS and Android. Linking your Neural DSP account to your Quad Cortex lets you back up your content, share it, and download items from other users. It also unlocks the Impulse Response Library, where you can transfer IRs to your unit and manage the ones stored on your account.
