NanoGig, the app
A web page that puts a phone, tablet or laptop next to the pedal and turns it into the stage display the Nano Cortex never had. Connect once over Bluetooth and the screen follows every footswitch press.
No pedal at hand? Demo mode on the app's connect screen runs the whole interface against a pretend pedal.
What it shows and does
Everything in the chain
Gate and the five FX blocks with the loaded model, lit in their category colour when on. Capture and IR names with on/off state, and the tempo following tap tempo live.
Control mode
Off by default. Turn it on to toggle blocks, bypass the capture or IR and switch presets from a bank strip. Every change is confirmed against the pedal.
Edit mode
Change effect models and parameters, capture volume, IR settings, browse the capture and IR library in folders of your own, rename and organise presets.
Tuner and tempo
The pedal's tuner and tap tempo on a big screen, opening by themselves when you start them from the footswitches.
Pedal settings
Every setting on Cortex Cloud's settings page, from LED brightness to MIDI channel, plus expression pedal indicators and recalibration.
What you need
| Device | Browser |
|---|---|
| Laptop or desktop | Chrome or Edge |
| Android phone or tablet | Chrome (Add to Home screen installs it as a full-screen app) |
| iPhone or iPad | The Bluefy browser (Safari has no Web Bluetooth) |
Firefox and Safari can't talk to Bluetooth devices from a web page, so they aren't supported. Details inBrowsers and devices.
Private by design
Nothing is installed on the pedal and nothing about your pedal leaves your device: no account, no server. The released app counts anonymous, cookieless usage (opens, connects). See Privacy.
Back up your presets in Cortex Cloud before turning on control or edit mode, and try it on a preset you don't mind losing first. NanoGig is unofficial; a pedal firmware update can change how it behaves.
