So apparently NAM rolled out a A2 version of their neural amp modeller which “objectively” sounds better than V2 cortex captures

Can we please add support for NAM A2 FULL on the QC?

Definitely no horsepower issue with this request.

> Quote: A2 runs in DAWs and even budget multi-fx pedals, with sound quality better than Quad Cortex at 50% CPU on a $3 ARM Cortex-M7 600MHz chip.

And it’s open source. We’ll all look really silly if something way cheaper than the QC sounds better captures wise 😂

Existing request for NAM in the QC:

> [@Add ability to run .NAM models in the QC](https://unity.neuraldsp.com/t/add-ability-to-run-nam-models-in-the-qc/13994):
>
> I know it’s a long shot but since Line6 and Two-Notes seem to be entertaining the idea of allowing their next hardware units to load .NAM models, just throwing this out there: Would Neural DSP be open to allow folks to incorporate .NAM profiles in their Quad Cortex units / signal chains? I think if this gets accommodated, QC could see a surge in adoption. The Neural Capture works ok for some stuff but not so much for other use-cases; having the option to run either a Neural Capture or a NAM mo…

Good luck…

This post makes sense. There is now a capture technology thats open source, appears more accurate and uses considerably less resources. Think of the cpu limits of QC V2 captures. Neural needs to seriously look at this. Or risk falling into trap of the Ikea effect. The competition is already working with NAM A2.

Everyone interested should vote for this. Truly.

For context: Rather than implementing NAM’s version 1 (A1?) models based on a feature request made in 2024, Neural chose to double down on a “walled garden” approach and develop their V2 Capture tech in 2025.

Definitely don’t see this happening for the QC. I’ll stay out of this discussion from now on.

Agreed they are not likely to add NAM and cannibalise their own tech. But they should respond. If adding actual NAM to QC is a no, then try to leapfrog this with capture V3. Soon there will be more and better options thanks to NAM.

Qc is a very expensive device that has a lot of hardware power, i think adding this open source technology makes it even more competitive, there are many technologies emerging and shaping the future of Amps sims and sound in general, but as a QC owner i think neural dsp is getting behind. Hope many people vote for this, it is a must add to the QC and NC

OP, please utilize the search function prior to submitting new requests, thanks!

As @DiffractionCircuit indicated, this is an existing request with more votes:

> [@Add ability to run .NAM models in the QC](https://unity.neuraldsp.com/t/add-ability-to-run-nam-models-in-the-qc/13994/44):

> I’ll join this wish. NDSP should be flawless, so A2 support would be a great addition. I have an Anagram, and it handles this perfectly, making it a versatile device. I trust the NDSP team to choose the right solution!
