Quad Cortex

The Quad Cortex by Neural DSP is a powerful floorboard amp modeler designed to provide limitless sound design possibilities. It features a total of 6 cores, including 4x SHARC+ and 2x ARM Cortex-A5 running at 500MHz, offering a processing capacity that allows for running four amplifier models, stereo reverbs, and a variety of other effects simultaneously without performance issues.

Key Features:
- Neural Capture: Equipped with unique biomimetic AI technology, the Quad Cortex can learn and replicate the sonic characteristics of any physical amplifier, overdrive, and cabinet with unprecedented accuracy.
- 7” Multi-Touch Display: The device features a large multi-touch display for easy and intuitive operation, allowing users to effortlessly create even the most complex signal paths.
- Extensive Collection of Algorithms: The Quad Cortex offers an ever- expanding collection of guitar and bass algorithms, including 90+ amps, 100+ effects, and 1000+ IRs.
- Compact Design: Despite its powerful processing capabilities, the Quad Cortex is designed in an extremely compact format, with dimensions of 29 x 19.5 x 6.9cm (11.4" x 7.7" x 2.7") and a weight of 1.95kg (4.2lbs).

Inputs & Outputs:
- Dual Combo Inputs: TS, TRS, and XLR, with variable impedance and level controls, built-in microphone preamps, and phantom power supplies.
- Dual Effects-Loops: Ideal for embedding external mono or stereo effects into the signal chain, as well as additional input/output jacks.
- Output Options: 1/4” balanced (TRS) outputs, balanced XLR outputs, and a headphone output for quiet practicing.
- MIDI Connectivity: MIDI In, Out/Thru for sending and receiving MIDI messages to automate switching and control of parameters.
- Dual Expression Inputs: Connect up to two expression pedals for controlling wahs, volume, and pitch-shifting algorithms.
- USB: Supports ultra-low latency audio transmission, firmware updates, MIDI, and more.

Control and Management:
- Cortex Cloud: Users can discover presets and neural captures via the Cortex Mobile app for iOS and Android devices, allowing for content sharing, backups, and IR management.
- Cortex Control: A sleek and intuitive desktop interface for managing every feature and setting of the Quad Cortex.

The Quad Cortex is a versatile and powerful tool for guitar and bass players, offering advanced processing capabilities and intuitive operation in a compact form factor.
