Amp and capture decoder
The device list tells you nothing unless you already know the amp. “Watt D103” and “CA John’s 2C” are obvious to someone who has owned one and useless to everyone else.
Neural publish this themselves — most people never find it
Every entry here is Neural DSP's own decoding, taken from the Virtual Device List in the Quad Cortex User Manual. It names the real-world model beside each device down to the individual channel, so this table is complete rather than a partial reconstruction — and it is the manufacturer saying it, not us inferring it.
Worth contrasting with the Nano Cortex guide's factory capture decoder, which is our inference and carries a confidence level on every row — because for that device Neural have never published an equivalent. Same question, completely different quality of evidence, and the two pages say so rather than looking equally authoritative.

The 114 captures already on your unit
These ship with the Quad Cortex, and their names are every bit as opaque as the amp models'. Neural document each one — so before you go hunting Cortex Cloud for a capture of something, check whether you already own it.

Every row on this page is Neural DSP's own decoding, from the Virtual Device List at the back of the Quad Cortex User Manual. It is the single most useful part of that document and it sits on page 105 of 122, which is why almost nobody has read it.
