Neural DSP Nano Cortex

Looking at the manual it would appear that you can
Engage / Bypass FX w exp pedal , seems odd they would not have put that on a hold function of switch one

Also what parameters can be controlled by expression
Technically if you could control the semi tones on the Transpose that would give you a basic whammy pedal no?

You can engage/bypass the effects with the onboard buttons. Unfortunately - and this is a major oversight - the only expression or MIDI control is of volume, gain and tone. No effect parameter can be controlled with MIDI CC. I own the Nano and this is big on my wish list for any future update. Of course patch changes can be made with MIDI program change commands - which would be made much simpler with a PC app where you could drag and drop to change the order of your patches.

oh really so only amp controls can be worked with the Expression pedal , no delay mix, reverb etc , that is a bummer

What I meant was to have the Footswitch A itself be able to perform preset A , Preset B. Hold to engage or bypass 1 effect like say the reverb
so you don't have to ben down to toggle that little fx button , you could add and remove verb with the preset switch in live mode
same as the Hold Tuner function on the right Footswitch encoder
 
Seeing NanOS 1.1.0 in my Cortex phone app. Anyone know if that was an update and if so what changed?
 
Did they tweak the analog delay for the Nano? I was messing with the QC today and noticed that the MINIMUM delay time is 200 ms which is odd. So you can't do slapback delays with that effect. Is that the same as the Nano?

Same

it because in QC they have another delay type called Slapback , they want credit for both models .
Where others just give you an ultimate delay with Modulation , diffusion , ducking QC has them as individual models
 
Just to bump up the Nano thread…

Firmware 1.1.1 update notes:

Fixed:

• An issue where the Level parameter LED ring was illuminated, but the Level parameter itself did not function after using a short press of the Save button to select a save slot in the Neural Capture Save menu.

• An issue where the Footswitch I LED would appear enabled but did not allow toggling between Capture and source after a short press of the Save button to select a save slot in the Neural Capture Save menu.

• An issue where the Headphones Output Level parameter could not be adjusted after using a short press of the Save button to select a save slot in the Neural Capture Save menu.

• An issue where preset switching would occasionally freeze.

• An issue where the Nano Cortex sometimes failed to sync with the mobile app after a Factory Reset was performed.
 
What is the quality of the headphones amp on the NC? Anybody tried it with something of higher impedence similar to the HD 6XX?

I'm looking for something fun and portable to take to another room (away from the Axe-Fx) or on holiday for some silent practice. Perhaps the NC is that device.

Not sure I can stomach the Tonex software for all the usual reasons discussed before, even though it often sounds a hair better in demos.
 
I wonder if they will at least announce what’s coming in a nano update
NDSP is doing an advent calendar for the week of Black Friday giving away Artist presets ,draws for NC and QC etc
Started with Petrucci X release, probably the QC update this week
 
No confirmation on this
But a FB post that is friends with a rep seems to indicate big updates coming
Here is some comments

- they are looking to move the noise gate into the amp block
Presumably to add a drive

-more delays and reverbs coming

- more functionality

Maybe NAMM announcements ?

It's fine if they wanna "Fractal-ize" the amp block by adding drive capabilities and whatnot. Not sure how that benefits "the most powerful floorboard amp modeler on the planet", but whatevs....

"More delays and reverbs coming" does perk my ears up a bit, but I have no confidence in them adding new devices in a timely fashion in the midst of The Great Plugin Conversion. Don't see that completing before late 2026, and the landscape should be pretttttty different by then.

I have to say if they added the dual delay or Circular from QC and a plate verb
Plus a drive block in front or second capture block to address that , I would be a lot more interested in the $500 price tag
 
Is the noise gate currently in the input block like the QC?

I think a few of those upgrades would really make the Nano appealing. Understanding DSP limitations, but if they add a separate drive block and can expand the effect selections that would be awesome.

Compressor
Drive
Capture
Modulation
Delay
Reverb

That's a pretty solid chain.
