Unless you're a beta-tester or "influencer", you don't have a Quad Cortex (haven't started shipping).

Pete Thorn has done an excellent demonstration video...as has Rabea Massaad.

The QC is going to be another great guitar modeler/profiler option (along with Helix, AxeFX, Kemper, etc).

I've watched those videos Jim (and a load more!).

I 've had a Kemper for years and have been mostly very happy with it. I had been looking at getting an AXE-FX III, but having done a bit of YouTube research (and having read the manual cover to cover) it seems the QC seems to offer just about everything the Axe does, but for half the price.

I noticed mention from a Neural spokesman that a QC app for PC/Mac was in the pipeline, and that to me would be the icing on the cake.

QC seems to be a nice "cherry-picked" feature set of Helix, Axe-FX, Kemper.

I'll grab one from Sweetwater (when they're actually available).

 

The Mooer G300 can also load "profiles/captures".  

You have to use an iPad to create the captures (a bit of a pain)... but it works.

Our local SamAsh had one used for $550... so I grabbed it to test.

Sounds a whole lot better than you'd expect (given cost and being MIC).

I find a bit odd that the quad cortex has almost the same ui the helix does.

One advantage to being "late to the game" is knowing the strengths/weaknesses of competing devices.

Neural has "cherry picked" some of the best features from Helix, Kemper, Axe-FX, and HeadRush.

To my ears, it sounds like their "capture" procedure may result in even more realistic "profiles" than the Kemper.

Keep in mind the Kemper is what... 11 years old?!  Amazing that it's still viable.

I don't trust any company to respect UI conventions and such. They removed the oversampling options in the Archetype Gojira plugin. All other plugins before it have it.

Trust me when say that it counts for nothing.?

Pfft...

Reputation points matter not to Straummy.

It's the percentage of points/posts that really matter.

  • Straummy = 1,008 / 1,308 = 77%
  • Bapsi = 2,356 / 89,477 = 2.6%

Check, and I believe, mate ?

Straummy argues that size doesn't matter ... it's what he's been told all his life.

I wonder what it feels like to have such a lowly and pathetic percentage......

 

 

 

 

 

 

Would you care to enlighten me Strummy? ?
