Neural DSP Nano Cortex

Presenting the all new Neural DSP Nano Cortex.

The Nano Cortex offers Neural Capture and a comprehensive signal chain in an ultra-compact form factor. With it,  you can create Neural Captures on-device (without needing to connect to an app or a computer) in under 5 minutes at the same resolution as the Quad Cortex.

Nano Cortex’s Neural Capture technology allows you to create incredibly accurate digital replicas of any
amp, cab, or drive pedal. The process is quick and easy. Simply connect your gear, press the Capture
button, and within minutes you will have a digital version of your hardware that’s virtually
indistinguishable from the real thing. There’s no need to connect to a computer, the internet, or the
Cortex Cloud app. It’s fast, easy, and fully self-contained.

Neural Captures created on Nano Cortex have the same resolution and quality as those made with the
flagship Quad Cortex, and can be seamlessly transferred between the two devices.

You also get free access to the Cortex Cloud where you can share your Neural Captures and access
thousands of Captures created by the Cortex Cloud community. These Captures can be wirelessly
downloaded to your Nano Cortex via the Cortex Cloud app.

Nano Cortex has straightforward and intuitive controls for standalone use. You get studio-quality tones
out of the box that can be easily tweaked with the onboard controls.

For more detailed control and customization, the Cortex Cloud app lets you manage your device,
download Neural Captures, and adjust Presets wirelessly over Bluetooth.

By connecting Nano Cortex to a computer via USB-C, it doubles as a fully-fledged low-latency 24-bit,
48kHz audio interface with 7 USB channels (3 inputs/4 outputs).

NanOS 2.0.0 unlocks the full potential of Nano Cortex with a dramatically expanded effects library, a fully customisable signal chain, and features that make it easier than ever to play anywhere, with zero compromise on tone or flexibility.

What’s new in 2.0.0:

• 47 new effects and utilities
• Fully customisable Pre and Post Effect Slots
• Built-in input gate - eliminates noise without using a Slot
• Global Cab Bypass

Product Features:

• Advanced IR Loader with ten premium-quality IRs, including five mic options and six mic positions. Load up to 256 custom IRs.
• Adaptive Gate & Transpose for clean signal and on-the-fly tuning adjustments.
• Bluetooth Connectivity for managing presets and firmware updates.
• Built-In Tuner to keep you perfectly in tune.

The versatility and ease of use of Nano Cortex makes it ideal for guitarists and bassists of all skill
levels. Whether you need sparkling clean tones, crushing high-gain, or anything in between, Nano
Cortex provides the performance and flexibility to dial in your perfect tone.

Signal chain

• Input Gate
  • NanOS 2.0.0 adds a built-in Input Gate at the very beginning of the signal chain, so you can eliminate unwanted noise from your signal without having to use one of your Effect Slots for a noise gate.
