Description

The Neural DSP Quad Cortex is the most powerful floorboard amp modeler on the planet. With a total of 6 cores, this ludicrous amount of processing capacity provides limitless sound design possibilities.

Want to run four amplifier models, stereo reverbs, and a plethora of other effects simultaneously? Quad Cortex won’t even break a sweat.

Neural Capture: Capture, share and download your favorite rigs’ sounds. Equipped with Neural’s unique biomimetic AI technology, the Quad Cortex can learn and replicate the sonic characteristics of any physical amplifier, overdrive, and cabinet with unprecedented accuracy.

Unlike any other, Neural’s sophisticated neural network algorithm perceives sound akin to human perception, making it the most natural-sounding capture solution on the planet. They are collaborating with some of the best producers and sound designers to provide an ever-growing collection of free rig captures in addition to their full-circuit models.

With its massive 7” multi-touch display, the Quad Cortex is unbelievably easy to use. Effortlessly create even the most complex signal paths.

Discover Users, Presets, and Neural Captures via the Cortex Mobile app for iOS and Android devices. Linking your Neural DSP account to your Quad Cortex allows you to create backups, share content, and download items from other users. It also unlocks the Impulse Response Library, where you can transfer IRs to your Quad Cortex and manage the IRs stored on your account.

Some Quad Cortex FAQs:

1. What audio algorithms come with the device? As of now, Quad Cortex ships with 90+ amps, 100+ effects, and 1,000+ IRs. This amount will continue to grow with future CorOS updates.

2. How do sound and performance compare to what we already know from the Neural DSP Plugins? The team at Neural have used the same modeling methods that have made their plugins successful. Quad Cortex will simply pack a vast and ever-increasing collection of them in a tour-ready format.

3. What is Neural Capture? Other companies already digitally capture the sound of an analog rig, some very cleverly for the time they were introduced. But with the advances in machine learning technology and in embedded processing power, Neural thought they could greatly contribute to this field. Their biomimetic approach relies on a unique combination of advanced machine learning techniques and neuroscience; they invented a way to train an AI to perceive sound in the same way the human ear does. Quad Cortex’s neural networks are hearing your rig in the same way that you do, giving it the most comprehensive and detailed detection system, and the resulting digitized rigs are the most accurate and powerful on the market.

4. If I have bought Neural DSP plugins, can I get them on QC? With the release of CorOS 3.0.0, the much awaited Plugin Compatibility (PCOM) feature is now available on the Quad Cortex. PCOM opens up a new realm of possibilities for tone exploration by integrating devices from our acclaimed plugins with the already impressive library of devices in the Quad Cortex. Plugins currently compatible with the Quad Cortex are marked with a ‘COMPATIBLE’ badge on their product cards and pages. Other plugins will become Quad Cortex-compatible as their supporting CorOS versions are released.
