Quad Cortex Neural Captures - Mesa Boogie Badlander Rectifier 100W EL34

[2dor]

I did a few Neural Captures of the Mesa Boogie Badlander Rectifier 100W EL34.

I used the St.Rock React:IR II but with my Mesa 2x12 and Mesa 4x12 Oversized cabs in the "Through" port to get that juicy AMP <-> CAB interaction.

They cover my own settings as well as Ola Englund's settings from his "Starzinger" video he did a tone showcase on a while back.

How did they come out compared to NAM? Havent extensively looked at the difference but a QC is on my horizon at some point.

I feel like they came out alright (no boost pedals used) but 've reamped the same settings for NAM. Once I get to train them (PC's currently training away at some other reamps I have lined up), I'll report back.

One of the most exciting aspects of profiling tech is sharing amps you love with other people.

It’s awesome that you do this. Thanks for giving to the community. I don’t have neural hardware but am sure these are amazing.

You can use NAM ! https://thegearforum.com/threads/some-nam-profiles-for-yall.6488/page-2#post-278165

I'm training (like, in this very moment) the same settings of the amps I pushed to the Cortex Cloud with the amp hooked up to the real cabs I own. About 6 profiles in total but I'm training them twice:

- once with the STANDARD profile architecture that comes with NAM by default (gets already excellent results)

- a second time with an architecture I've settled on (for now) after having experimented for about 2 months now. These re-trained profiles have 355 kB in size (vs the 290 kB the Standard ones have), eats up a smidge more RT-CPU (not obscene amounts) but gets even closer to the real gear

100% Thanks @2dor nice to have these on the QC which I prefer to NAM or ToneX for captures. Super generous for you to share.

I take the QC to practice so it's cool to have the tones available in that tiny box.

I just saw this on my feed and wondered if it was @2dor

Pipp's review was unexpected but I'm very happy to see my work resonates with people & helps put a smile on a few faces.
