The unit fits my needs exactly. I am a simple tube amp user - rarely go over 3 presets: clean, rhythm, lead that are dialed in and stay intact forever. I do not use many effects with my amps, go straight guitar-amp-cab. Sometimes throw in an old TC Booser+ and a delay. I used to carry around a Kemper rack in a box that had my amps profiled, and was looking to get a smaller hi-end unit that could replace it. My frustration is over. To be honest, I was looking at the Kemper player as well (since I mostly profile/capture my own tube amps), but I have chosen the Nanocortex because for its superior pitch shifter and ability to profile my amps with a booster engaged spot on. It is known that the Kemper struggles with profiling amps with multiple gain stages, also, with an overdrive added (I know there are many in Kemper, but they don't come close to the one I have). Often, for me, after refining the end result is not consistent, multiple attempts all sounded differently. The Nanocortex did it for me perfectly from the first try. I was able to reproduce the same capture sound over again. The cloud "thing" of Neural that is available from mobile devices is inferior to Kemper's own rig manager, in my opinion. There is definitely a room for improvement. It is quite annoying to upload IRs via the cloud and use on smaller mobile devices. Pity it doesn't have a desktop app. The pitch shifter works better than Kemper's version and has better latency than a standalone Digitech Drop pedal (that still has better note tracking).
