Neural DSP Quad Cortex Mini Modeling and Effects Processor 140001-NRL

The Neural DSP Quad Cortex Mini is a fully?fledged, stage?ready guitar and bass rig — shrunk down to a gloriously compact box that drops straight onto any pedalboard, fly rig or touring setup. Despite its tiny footprint (over 50% smaller than the original), it delivers the full Quad Cortex experience. All the sounds and flexibility, just… mini!

Built around an unprecedented level of processing power for its size, the Quad Cortex Mini dishes out world?class tones that are a doddle to dial in. From searing high?gain stacks and pristine studio cleans to beautifully detailed captures and creative effects chains, everything you love about Quad Cortex is right here — ready to explore, tweak and make your own.

Intelligent workflow, seamless integration

Quad Cortex Mini runs the same CorOS software and integrates fully with the Quad Cortex ecosystem. Presets, full backups and complete workflows move seamlessly between devices, so everything works exactly as expected with nothing to rebuild.

The result is a powerful and versatile platform that removes the traditional trade-off between size and capability, delivering uncompromised sound and creative legroom in a more portable form.

Your tool for practice & songwriting

Designed for spaces where simplicity and speed matter, the Quad Cortex Mini makes it easy to create, adjust and save sounds quickly. The visual signal chain and intuitive controls allow you to move from a spark of an idea to a fully dialled?in sound in no time at all.

Studio?ready & built for modern DAW workflows

The Neural DSP Quad Cortex Mini is a powerful all?in?one hub for recording and re?amping guitar or bass. With USB?C audio interface functionality and flexible routing options, it slots naturally into any modern DAW workflow — no hassle, no extra boxes required.

The compact touring solution

Quad Cortex Mini fits easily into compact racks and professional touring rigs. Multiple units can be deployed in a single rack for redundant rigs, wet/dry setups or multi-instrument applications.

CorOS 4.0.0

Quad Cortex Mini arrives alongside CorOS 4.0, a major update that not only brings full support for the Mini but also expands the sonic playground for every Quad Cortex user. This update introduces a collection of inspiring new devices designed to push ambient, cinematic and studio?grade sound design even further:

• Nordic Concert Hall: Delivers a huge, open reverb inspired by classic concert hall algorithms — great for spacious, atmospheric and film?like textures.
• Blossom: Brings a gorgeous swelling reverb that blooms after your initial note, ideal for expressive playing, ambient pads and dramatic volume?swells that are designed to inspire.
• Studio Plate 70: Captures the smooth, musical decay of vintage studio plate reverbs, sitting beautifully in a mix.

CorOS 4.0 also adds Phase Doctor, a powerful utility for multi?amp and stereo explorers. It gives you precise phase control to correct alignment issues between signals, ensuring wide, clean and punchy tone — exactly as you intended it.

Features

• As mighty as the Quad Cortex, just smaller: All the processing muscle, pristine audio quality and world?class Neural Capture tech from the original QC in a more compact chassis.
