    When a then-young Neural DSP debuted their Quad Cortex a few years back, it became immediately clear that their state-of-the-art technology was light-years ahead of its time. Multifaceted sound modeling and amplifier profiling masterfully blended cutting-edge capture capabilities with immensely detailed sonic sculpting - all contained within a streamlined, sleek, and intuitive device that could fit neatly onto your pedalboard. Countless members of the guitar world’s virtuosic vanguard instantly saw the potential for revolutionizing their studio and stage rigs. One such distinguished member, Rabea Massaad, drops by Sweetwater to give you a firsthand look at the latest developments with the Quad Cortex. Plus, Neural DSP’s Max Taylor Grant joins Rabea for a deep dive into the company’s Cortex Control software, showing you the next step into the infinite possibilities of virtual tone crafting.

      I'm eager to hear about how Audio dropout while switching scenes with different amps will be resolved. I have demonstrated an issue with that feature and am looking for workarounds for dropout-free performances with my Quad Cortex. It sounds great!

    Never stop making QC deep dive videos as long as I've had it I still learn new things all the time.. I do have one request for you.. I've captured my amp heads and some pedals but I really want you guys to make a video demonstrating how to capture a Neural plugin off the computer using the QC. I've been told this can be done but not sure how to do it.. capture the Gojira or the Petrucci plug in PLEASE!! Thank you for the content guys appreciate it!

      this is a real game changer. It enables me to use only one reverb/delay per preset and tune the times and mixes and feedback on every scene.

    with cortex control, what would be the accessibility for someone who is a Blind guitar player, would the keyboard shortcuts, allow someone to build amps, and Signal, change chains, and to sink it with the quad cortex; also, when that is done, can you just use the knobs and the foot switches, to scroll through the different presets that you have on the cloud cortex; or is it necessary to use the touch screen.

    • @robchrisaustinsteve
      @robchrisaustinsteve 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I use it 3-4 times a week live. Once you get a rig set you don’t even need to touch it. Consistent af 👌🏼

    Bought a ToneX, Temple Duo board and GigRig G3S Atom new for the price of QC. The ToneX sounds better than my QC did with my amps captured. I went back to a pedalboard using my pedals with lt.

    How would you route this to the monitors like you are doing but also route it to a real cab?

      Two xlrs to your interface ( or USB to computer) and 1/4 output to amp.

    What about latency ? using with some loop effects and no cable sound system is very very huge :( if Neural will do something to help ?!
    If not is unfortunately big reason to jump to another solution :(

    Collapsed to mono the 'going stereo' tone suffers badly from phase cancellations.

    Still a bit wonky compared to competition, it often disconnects. But it's a start, no matter how I like using the onboard touch interface, sometimes when recording the QC is a bit out of reach and something like that is necessary. Hopefully version 2.0 will improve some things

    Building a great preset and not loading to cloud is a tonal sin!
