Zoom Neurig Amp & Effects Neural Modeler

Zoom NEURIG – Neural Amp and Effects Modeler for Electric Guitar

The Zoom NEURIG combines neural amp and effects modeling with extensive options for shaping your own tone. Its powerful DNA Engine reproduces the sonic behavior of classic amplifiers and effects, including how they respond to different control settings. With 30 DNA amp and effect models, native NAM A2-lite support and 139 built-in effects, the compact guitar processor opens up versatile possibilities for stage, studio and rehearsal room.

DNA Engine and NAM Support

The DNA Engine reproduces not only the sound of classic amplifiers and effects, but also how they respond to different control settings. Thanks to NAM support, you can use digital captures of amplifiers, effect pedals and complete signal chains. In combination with the Zoom SessionZ Pedal App, more than 700,000 captures and impulse responses from the TONE3000 community are available.

The NEURIG can also create your own NAM A2 captures: the connected equipment is captured and the data is sent to TONE3000 via Wi-Fi for AI-based processing.

Multi-Layer Impulse Responses for Realistic Speaker Simulation

22 multi-layer impulse responses provide realistic speaker simulation, taking different volume levels into account and allowing flexible virtual microphone positioning. 50 slots are available for your own speaker impulse responses.

Rigs, Presets and 32-Bit Float Processing

A rig can contain up to 14 amps and effects and offers four presets that you can switch between while playing. In addition to 75 factory rigs, there are 200 slots for your own sound creations.

The internal 32-bit float signal processing offers plenty of dynamic headroom, while seamless switching lets delay and reverb tails decay naturally. Parallel effect paths and separate signal outputs for stage amp and PA are also possible.

Touch Control, SessionZ Pedal App and Rig AI

The NEURIG is operated directly via two touch displays or wirelessly via the SessionZ Pedal App. With the Rig AI function, guitarists can describe the sound they want and have a matching rig created from it.

Bluetooth audio streaming, AI-based separation of individual instrument tracks and control of music playback from the pedal expand the possibilities for practicing and jamming.

Tuner, Looper, USB Audio Interface and Battery Operation

For practical use, the Zoom NEURIG offers a built-in chromatic tuner with support for alternate tunings, a stereo looper with up to 45 seconds of recording time including overdub and undo/redo, and a USB audio interface with 32-bit float resolution. Connections for MIDI, external control, send/return, headphones and stereo outputs allow integration into a wide range of setups.

The built-in lithium-ion battery delivers up to 4.5 hours of playing time and allows mobile use without an external power supply. Weighing only 850 g, the NEURIG remains pleasantly compact.
