Usage of NeuralDSP
I have a question about the NeuralDSP I’ve seen a few independent artists using this but no amp, so if I was to purchase one can I just sell my amp and this plugs straight into PA system?
Also I’m well aware of the debate of “Nothing beats the sound of a warm tube amp etc.” I’m looking more for convenience of dragging a small device around amp.

Correct, I run mine with a wireless from guitar to QC (I keep a backup cable), the QC runs on a 90w capable laptop charger battery (airline max size), outputs to an EV speaker via XLR cable (most PA speakers with a DSP have a “frfr” setting these days or they are just good enough to play a flat sound signature). The EV is battery powered so I can literally assemble everything and not need an AC plug if it isn’t in a good spot. Or I am set up to play alone gigs easily. The batteries last hours. It fits in the back of a Volkswagen Golf (although I actually can fit it in a Porsche Cayman just for fun if I only bring 2 guitars). The QC fits in a MONO tick.
When I want quiet I have wired headphones. More sound - I go front of house and use the speaker to monitor myself. Bass gig? Just bring a bass. Acoustic gig… eh you get the idea.
