Neural DSP Quad Cortex NAMM20

This looks rather promising.

Normally, we see a bunch of modelers come out at this time around but usually there's nothing that would compete with say - the Kemper and the way that unit profiles a tone.
This new unit by Neural DSP should be able to run 4 rigs simultaneously :_).

Now we're talking about tone shaping and blending!
I love how portable the unit looks and I would definitely consider getting this once the community is alive and is able to source good tones from renowned studios and players.

There’s another thread below this one discussing what this might be.
I’ve read this marketing copy three times and I still don’t know what this thing is.

All I wanted to do was run the Fortin Neural plug-ins from a floorboard

So it’s a Kemper like floorboard like the Kemper Stage? I’ll be honest that I don’t want to deal with libraries of profiles again, that’s why I liked the plugins to carve my own sound. If that’s just one part of it and you can also profile amps that’s cool.

Going to go out on a limb and say it's the tech they've been using to create the plugins embedded in a floor controller. I'd imagine there will be an equivalent to the plugin models in the unit.

I want one of these but after the meltdown my wife had yesterday I'm not bringing home anything new for awhile..

This looks pretty amazing.

this looks awesome.

It is more than a Kemper floorboard

This thing is a:
• Amp/Cab Modeler
• Profiler
• USB Interface
• will load Neural plug in's (post launch)
• 4 instruments at a time
• Touch Screen

$1600. Looks awesome from a functionality standpoint. Definitely checking it out at NAMM

They will likely sell a lot based on those functions alone. I'm curious to see if the different instruments will be able to use different presets or how that will work.

It'll be like helix. Each input will get it's own effects and amp chain. One preset for all 4. I assume they'll have something like scene's and snapshots.

Damn this looks amazing, after reading their whole page on it, I was excited and ready to buy..... them I saw it’s a pre-order and they won’t ship until September 2020. Damn what a letdown.

So basically it is a "host" for Neural DSP's plugins?

No. It will host them but they’re launching with 50+ amp models, 70 effects, etc. it’s a full on modeler + profiler. If you own or buy any of the plug ins there’ll be a download of them post launch that you can add.

Almost worth it just for the Fortin plugins you could get for it!
