Episode 535 – How Neural DSP Is Revolutionizing the Music Industry | Doug Castro & Francisco Cresp

mardi 27 août 2024 • Duration 32:00

In this week’s episode, I sit down with the co-founders of Neural DSP, Doug Castro and Francisco Cresp.

For those who aren’t aware, Neural DSP manufactures the highly regarded Quad Cortex amplifier modeler as well as a line of modeling plugins.

Even though Neural DSP is located in Finland, both Doug and Francisco are from Chile. They fell in love with the country and its music as high school exchange students and decided to relocate to Finland after school.

After Doug developed the Darkglass bass pedals which he eventually sold to Korg, he and Francisco created Neural DSP with the idea of developing state-of-the-art amplifier simulator tools.

In this episode, they will be sharing with us how they founded Neural DSP, why they decided to focus on plugins before the hardware when founding their company, what sets them apart from their competitors, and more.

Let’s dive in.
