About the Quad Cortex Tone Guide

The Quad Cortex Tone Guide is an independent collection of song-inspired guitar tone recipes.

Our aim is to help guitarists understand how familiar sounds can be recreated using Neural DSP’s Quad Cortex.

Each recipe includes practical signal chains, suggested amp and effect settings, playing advice and step-by-step build instructions.

Our Approach

These recipes are original, practical starting points rather than claims to reproduce exact studio recording chains.

Actual results will vary depending on your guitar, pickups, monitoring system and playing technique.

Learn by Building

Rather than simply providing presets, we encourage you to understand how each block contributes to the finished sound.
