Neural DSP's Quad Cortex has dominated the guitar modeler market for a number of years, and with good reason. Unprecedented sound quality, super intuitive interface and the choice of both models and captures of real amps.
The Nano Cortex does all this in a super compact and affordable version. The Nano Cortex maintains a fixed signalchain to provide as much audio quality as possible in a small format. And with all the essentials like :
- Pitchshift
- Noisegate
- Captures (over 25,000 via the Cortex Cloud)
- Impulse Responses
- Chorus
- Analog Delay
- Reverb
Have more than enough to use the Nano Cortex standalone or integrate it into an existing pedalboard.
In terms of controls and interface, Neural DSP has again excelled wonderfully. To compensate for the lack of a screen, you can control the Nano Cortex's presets directly via the Cortex Cloud App. Build your presets and multiple banks here or get additional Captures from others for even more tone options.

So we can output stereo, we can interface directly with via the USB output, and there is even an XLR input to make your own Captures with the Cortex Nano. Via the USB output it is also possible to record audio directly to your PC. Just plug in and you have studio-grade audio to mix into your projects, put under video content or send to other musicians in a remote collaboration. The audio quality runs at 24-bit and 48kHz samplerate. Setting up a new preset is truly child's play. You link your Cortex Nano to the app via bluetooth and select the preset you want to customize. Then you choose from one of 5 pre-loaded Captures, you choose one of 5 pre-loaded IRs, and finally your pre and post effects. Want to replace one of the 5 pre-loaded captures with another amp or cab? No problem! With the push of a button you choose one of dozens of Neural Captures, or dive into the Cloud to use one of the 25,000 captures others have made.I/O
