Far from the hype and all the difficulties that Neural has had since its launch at NAMM in 2020, with covid, lack of electronic components and all the difficulties, we are in 2023 (almost 2024) and Neural has recovered its "delay" with the last firmware update. There is still lag in banking changes, but it is minimal and competitive with its competitors. The usability is killer, I believe it is the best on the market. I personally prefer the sound of the Neural Quad Cortex to the Kemper, but it's my personal taste.
The WiFi connection is magical, it backs up and integrates with their cloud, the desktop application, even though it's killer in the beta version, was really what was missing!
I had a problem with my spine, I had to have surgery this year and I can no longer carry my tube amplifiers, which weigh more than 50 kilos. The Neural Quad Cortex saved my life in this regard.
It is a promising, modern device, with a long life ahead of it. The community is active, if you're lazy like me, there are thousands of ready-made archetypes, captures and tones, where you just adjust what you need.
Thomann is always excellent, I'm from outside Europe, I've always bought equipment from them for a long time, the delivery was accurate.
If you have any doubts, I recommend that you do a lot of research, watch thousands of videos and make your choice! My recommendation may not be worth anything, I'm not famous, I'm not a good guitarist but I've been playing for over 30 years, I've had all the possible analogue and electronic equipment (boss, line 6, roland, korg, zoom, digitech, TC electronics, table boogie, Peavey, EVH and many boutique pedals) but I can say that this is the most innovative equipment, with quality sound, flexible and high technology currently available!
