Quad Cortex mini amp modeler: All the power, half the size

A warehouse of guitar gear in the palm of your hand.

Since I already have a steam deck, this is actually pretty tempting

The Steamdeck is my entire guitar rig

@kimau The benefits of open source are too numerous to quantify when compared against the drawbacks of closed source corporate warchests filled with duplicated efforts done with major compromises made solely for profitability.

A hilarious case in point: #Kemper #NeuralDSP #AxeFX #ToneX #Fender and #Line6 are getting TROUNCED by the free and open source #neuralampmodeler

Guitar amp emulation went from $2000 for the AxeFX in 2006 to 0$ for the NAM plugin. ๐Ÿคฃ

Aw man. I mean, loads of pros use it, so it's probably fine but that's a $1500 gamble.

And trying to incorporate a slew of analog pedals takes you into the world of midi loop switchers, and then the pedal board gets too big to really do fly dates.

If getting together the required palette requires some kind of compromises with digital, then it's increasingly seeming like some sort of modeller might be worth looking at. So I reached out to Neural DSP...

... and guess what (2/2)

#NeuralDSP have got a lot right with the new #QuadCortex mini, but I have questions about the durability.

Like #BOSS did with their GT-1000 and GT-1000Core, the QCmini has the same internal hardware as the full QC, so there's no compromise on power.

However, the QCmini still costs more than twice the Core and uses more than twice the power.

This is good for the #guitar #bass #effects #fx #pedalboard #MI industry, and will push the competition that much harder.

No compromises. Just smaller.

@mboelen druk bezig met van big tech weg te gaan, nog een paar uitdagingen, #NeuralDSP Cortex Control werkt niet op #Linux, familie begin dit jaar overzetten op @nextcloud en wachten op mn @jolla telefoon. Band van #GoogleDrive af krijgen gaat te lastig worden ben ik bang.
