Biggest reason I wanted this is so I can finally put my QC on the floor and use it as a pedalboard while messing around with presets and tones on my desktop. This way I don’t have to lean over and break my back to make adjustments on the floor
You break your back every time you lean over?
I just got my quad cortex about a month and a half ago. I bought in at the right time and I am so happy I did, such quality hardware and software and many new great additions that we have gotten and more coming soon. Thank you Neural!
that's a big leap ahead! Go on folks, continue to innovate! thank you!
Thank you guys for constant updates on everything
Rad! So happy it is here, glad I waited. Once the plugins are avaible on the QC... 💥 Boom it's over man...
D I G I T A L J O H N!!! Thank you the team at Neural DSP for making the Quad Cortex. I just purchased mine this month and it has changed my life. No exaggeration. I haven't had the desire to play as much as I am today. Thank you thank you for making this incredible machine.
Please get Tim Henson, Tone King, and Mateus Asato Archetype plugins able to be captured on this ❤️ waiting for the tipping point for this to be 100% worth it and I think that’s it
Cortex Control is fantastic. Thank you!
Fabulous! I’ve used so many other musical device control apps, but never something that well integrated and something that expands on the functionality (shortcuts, local backups, live tuning, device internet).
Thanks Neural DSP!
Just got mine today. Absolutely stunning piece of equipment. My god.
5 minutes in and I bought one online. Keep developing and improving. 😊
Great video very intuitive, job well done!!
I've installed Cortex Control on my Windows 10 PC after taking the most recent update to the QC. With the QC powered on and connected to the PC, I still had the message in Cortex Control to 'plug in via USB and power on the QC'. When I looked in Device Manager though, I noticed a yellow exclamation mark on the QC USB device and the message 'device cannot start'. So, I plugged the USB into a different port on the PC and it worked right away. Just sharing in case someone else runs into that.
Awesome! This is gonna be a big help. Thanks you guys 🔥

DIGITAL JOHN!!! 😊
Now my QC is reeeeeeeeally interesting !
great video, thanks! so far this beta is quite good on my system.
Awesome, thanks!
This is dope
Yaaas, no more footswitch auto assign 🥳
lovely DI ^^
i think the global settings bar would be very cool to see on the quad cortex aswell. Also i would love to see the 9 band graphic eq as actual sliders other than knobs. To be able to toggle between the views would be awesome!
*the global settings bar including the mini tuner, tap tempo, cpu usage and maybe a wifi indicator
I just received my Quad Cortex and I’m stumped by the overall output compared to my Axe Fx III. I’m running through usb and have the QC connected main out 1/2 into my monitor controller. I have to crank the monitor controller to even get close to a nice volume. QC volume dial is at 100
Sound design 😮🎉
Am I imagining things or does it sound like the dry DI guitar is bleeding through underneath the processed sound? Particularly when the low strings are played hard.
Hi "Digital John"
Yo 🤖
Yeeeeeeeeeees!
Great !
When is this version of CorOS being released? 22:18 shows a feature a bunch of people have been waiting for.
about time. Quad cortex seems really cool, they just released it too soon imo.
Did the same configuration. Mine does not sound like this. It’s muffled. And the fuzz pedal is absolutely horrible. Had to disable it. I think they do some post processing otherwise I can’t explain
When using QC stand alone, in scene mode, in the Parameter Editor menu, you can long hold on any value in the menu and it makes the value scene specific and puts a little icon with a cross and ABCD in each quadrant. How do you do this in Cortex Control? I reread the user manual and watched this video and no mention of it. Thanks.
@neuraldsp Please add button for quick access to global input settings.
At 22:21, you explain the "Stomp mode bypass assignment" function. I don't see that yet in my cortext control. Is that something that will come later?
Huge ask, but hopefully, eventually, you can copy more than one device at a time, like an entire signal chain. Would make building scenes/presets much faster, unless we missed it before!
Hey.........will the plugins like the Plini X look like they do on our computer screens only smaller or will they have the standard QC icon look?
Probably standard QC icon look as they recently teased in an Instagram post
They made a video for Plini X too.
Does the Quad Cortex feature some type of "Autoswell" effect by any chance??
It's a breeze to use the Cortex Editor!
💨
Hear I am looking at this thing feeling a little lost, Remember to buy yourself some headphones with a 1/4 in jack. I haven't had a pair of those since I threw out my old 8 track player back in the 90s. Even my c.1993 digitech RP-1 has the small phones jack
Mad this wasn't a feature from day dot!
Will there be a version for the Nano Cortex?
Huh, not seeing the Stomp Mode Bypass Assignment currently.
i am still waiting a Neural dSP Archetype mike Dawes or least a Neural DSP acousticS Guitar plug-in or and Bass guitar
Is possible to use a Tablet or an IPad with the future plugins or it need to be a desktop computer?
Next feature - advanced looper with drums please, after you finish with "Plini/Plugins X" btw ;)
Is there a chance that there will be a Linux version as well? Would really love that!
Wine support would also be fine. But there are missing graphics. Installing did work, but text was barely readable and screens were "empty"
Maybe a future project to compete against helix native🤔
If they do I may consider getting one. I'm currently using hx fx with a tone x pedal and it only cost me about $500 so for me to spend about 4x's asmuch on a qc and software theyd need to add alot more effects and amps for both bass and guitar I don't like that qc doesn't have scribble strips and no touch capcitive switching too tho so i dont know maybe I still wouldn't end up making the switch to a qc it's still a pro's and con's list between both pedals. The qc is starting to finally start catching up to the fractal and line 6 stuff tho even if it's still taken over 2 years to get some of its basic features implemented correctly.
Great to finally have the desktop editor. Please add a maximise button to the top right of the window frame just like any other software app to make the window fit to screen instead of the small medium and large options available. Thanks for this deep dive video saving it for later reference.
John uses MacOS in this demo video, so it’s on the top left of the window. In Windows I‘m sure it will automatically be on the top right like in any other application.
The button is on the left. Drag a window to the top of your screen to maximize it. Or double click the top of the window
@@josuastangl7140 it's not there
what's the difference between mono and stereo cabs?
Hmm it seems I don't have options shown at 22:18 in my QC and Cortex Control.
Does anyone have it?
Neither do I
could I use cortex control without having wifi in my computer?
If i open the Cortex Control it won't open at at it keeps standing on Loading Preset... Can anyone help me out??
I have the same problem, do you have any solution, now?
My feedback button within the app isn't working. Is there a direct link? Thanks!
Mine is stuck loading the presets... Wont connect and I've tried some troubleshooting
Hey! Reach out to our support team on support@neuraldsp.com. 🫶
And I'm hoping that Cortex Control can be a VST plugin in the future 🤞
It will be spendy if they do
@@ironblast5 They already have standalone app, so i think i'd be possible to do so. and they're planning to release plugins compatibility too soon
how connect plini x to quad cortex
When the QC will be updated
It would be really great if this was a VST
It's about time a feature was implemented that was promised upon release.
Cando salga el NQC MKII compatible con la arquitectura de PC será revolucionario, de momento le falta mucho he probado y comparado con amplificadores reales y la señal es muy comprimidas muy procesada y con unos graves confusos y poco definidos. Esperare.
D J !,,
1st
Waste of $ unless u have 10,000 hrs to learn to use and degree in computer programming
Yay now the crybabies have one less thing to complain about!
Honestly the main feature😂
w comment
stop. auto. assigning. footswitches.... sincerely EVERYONE.
