Quad Cortex - The most powerful floorboard amp modeller on the planet.
Quad Cortex is the most powerful floorboard amp modeller 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 favourite rigs’ sounds. Equipped with Neural's unique biomimetic AI technology, 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. Neural collaborates with some of the best producers and sound designers to provide an ever-growing collection of free rig captures in addition to the Cortex's full-circuit models.
Neural Capture isn’t the only way you can get your hands on fire-breathing modern stacks and high-class vintage combos using the Quad Cortex. The Quad Cortex comes loaded for bear straight out of the gate with 90+ Amplifiers, 100+ effects and 1000+ IRs.
With its massive 7” multi-touch display, Quad Cortex is unbelievably easy to use. Effortlessly create even the most complex signal paths. In addition to its snappy touchscreen interface, the Quad Cortex gives you stainless steel 2-in-1 rotary footswitches. These dual-purpose footswitch encoders put an entire amp-face of controls at your fingers all at once. The encoders twist like real knobs in your hands, and the switches stomp every bit as quickly and reliably as traditional footswitches.
Using advanced mechanical design and manufacturing techniques, the Quad Cortex packs its unbelievable power into an extremely compact format, boasting a wide array of I/O options: Combination TS/TRS/XLR, dual effects loops, 1/4-inch output jacks, XLR output jacks, headphone ouput, MIDI in and out/thru, as well as dual expression pedal inputs.
OS UPDATE: CorOS 3.0.0 is now live, bringing the highly anticipated Plugin Compatibility (PCOM) along with several enhancements. It is recommended that all Quad Cortex users update to CorOS 3.0.0. Ensure you create a backup before updating and disconnect Cortex Control 1.1.0 to avoid conflicts. Start the update via Settings > Device Options > Device Updates on your Quad Cortex with a stable Wi-Fi connection. The process takes 30-35 minutes and includes several reboots. After updating, refresh your plugin licenses if needed. Update brings compatibility with Archetype: Gojira X and Archetype: Plini X. For more information, click here.
