Neural DSP Nano Cortex - In stock!

Maker: Neural DSP

Model: Nano Cortex

Condition: New

Description:

Nano Cortex gives you the power of a full guitar or bass rig in a compact, ultra-portable pedal. With studio-quality sound, a comprehensive signal chain, and the revolutionary Neural Capture technology, it meets all your tone-shaping needs whether on stage, in the studio, or at home. In 2020, Neural Capture revolutionized the music world with its unmatched ability to capture the true essence of any amp, cab, or drive pedal with unparalleled sound. The industry was astonished by how authentic the tones sounded and felt to play. Now, that same groundbreaking technology has been packed into a gig-ready pedal that fits in the palm of your hand. Nano Cortex is set to revolutionize the way guitarists and bassists approach tone, both on stage and in the studio.

Welcome to the future of guitar and bass processing.
