@@Ninuzzo quick question, if I download the Archetype Rabea now, and Neural released the X version some months later, I should be able to update and get the Rabea plugin to work on the QC right.
Luckily had the chance to chat with rabea a few times, he is the opposite to "don't meet your heroes" type. Had really good chat and could tell he showed a genuine interest in what I was on about, which was lovely. All round top bloke!
@@louisbailie1349can confirm this too. Met him a couple of times a fair few years ago and Everytime he was lovely, chatty and just generally happy to talk music and gear etc. really happy to have met him as I’ve been a long time fan girl for a while before hand
Honestly NDSP knocked this out if the park. I can understand why it took then a long time to get all of these features added. Obviously it wouldve been nice to have them at launch. But WOW! This opens up so many possibilities. Cant wait for all the plugins to merge over
I've been using your stereo amp approach and tips to build my own stereo rig for playing at home and recording. Thank you for sharing all your experience and knowledge from both the physical and digital worlds. You're helping so many of us create awesome and inspiring tones.
i think the plan is to port every plugin to the X/compatibility version i think they're just going through the ones with the most viability for success on the quad cortex
@@angelbcamFortin NTS and the Darkglass haven’t even gotten the X update yet. I think they’re going off of sale numbers and popularity, which seems to be fitting Gojira, Plini and then Nameless, Nolly, Parallax and so on
Coming from Helix Floor and being a Neural DSP plug-ins user, I'm selling the Floor and already bought a Cortex. Updated to CorOS 3.0.0, took a Gojira X for free and ready to set the world on fire. Great job man!
@wildinthe70s there where an offer for Cortex users who updated their units to CorOS 3.0.0 until 28th of August. No relationship with current black Friday 50% discount.
I want to be able to break out the devices in my DAW as well! We need a CorOS plugin for PC! Mixing and matching components from the plugins in a recording setting would be a dream!
The next level will come when Neural DSP decides to give us a unifying plug-in for our DAWs, which allows us to mix and match any of the effects pedals amps, or cabs from the plug-ins we’ve purchased.
Tbf you can already. Just use your DAW’s channel strip to load multiple instances and disable different components as needed. There’s your custom signal chain as well
@@issy_dev it’s not fair, it’s a non starter. Not just from a usability issue, but from a resource constraint issue, and integration issue. There are virtual processes inherent to emulate the hardware processes when the signal is passed off to the next circuit in a signal chain.

@catobringas8637 I've said this many times before. I imagine a lot of the code base is the same for each plugin. They won't make a unified plugin as selling the plugins separately makes them too much money. One unified plugin with the ability to load each aartistsplugin would be great.

Impressive, but now the real question that everybody ask : when the amazing Archetype Rabea will be available on the QC ?? 😁 Thanks Rabea for this video 👍
Awesome Rabea, you're the perfect brand ambassador for this, thanks for the great overview. Cant wait for your plugin on the Quad Cortex. Got a few questions: 1. For live tours, do you still use your real tube amps or do you bring a quad cortex? 2. How will the cloud presets differentiate between stock content / archetype content? 3. Can I somehow import my archetype presets to the quad cortex? Cant seem to find them in thr folder 4. Is there a timeline for the release of more archetype X plugins / when they come to QC?
Rabea makes it difficult to learn the ins and outs of quad cortex since this 2 minute preset tutorial is such a brutally awesome preset that I can’t stop playing except for the beastly Darkglass 900 bass capture preset I made in less than 2 minutes. 🤪😂
The best part of this is being able to change the signal path (for example, to move the graphic EQ to before the amp rather than after the cab). The most annoying part of the Neural plugins is that they're fixed signal chain, and now we know it's for no reason since you can do so with QC.
This is beyond awesome! My fav plugin so far is none other than... YOURS! Can't wait to have it incorporated in the QC - any ideas when that is coming?
The FM9 has more features and included amps/pedals etc... for $150 CAD more than the QC. It's ridiculous that you need the licenses for the plugins to use them on the QC at this price point.
This is awesome! Thanks for demoing, Rabea! One question, can someone explain why the delay and reverb effects at the beginning of the video go after the cab sim? Thanks!
I'm glad they're delivering on what was previously promised, but I never needed the plugins. The QC is an awesome device on its own. Would like to see more development on the effects front as well. I guess an issue I would have with it is that the buttons are a little closely spaced together in my opinion, but you can use an external midi pedal for that. Oh and of course, the power supply!
For the issues you are having, a new version of the QC would have to be released. I’m not saying your complaints are invalid though. I’m generally happy with my unit, but maybe a version 2 might be released with more cpu power and a beefier power supply.
My only fear is in the vein of your comment. Will they prefer adding fx's via plugins as opposed to built in QC fx's? I would think that's in their financial interest as you have to buy the plugin but QC users don't have to pay more for CorOS updates. I have a ton of their plugins so not a massive deal for me but for people like you I hope it doesn't play out that way.
Hey Rabea, thanks for the video. I’ve noticed in this and several of your other videos that you run the Master Volume on your amp blocks quite high. I’ve always heard the opposite particularly with high gain amps. Can you explain what you’re accomplishing by doing this? Does it create more power amp distortion?
@@RabeaMassaadThat makes complete sense! It’s all about what sounds good. There is no right or wrong way to do something and I need to get out of that mindset and just be willing explore more. Thanks for the reply! 😊
Would you recommend to use usb signal of the QC rather than running the QC via XLR in a Interface/Mixer (also connected with the pc via USB) due to quality?
I'm on the fence wether I should buy the Quad Cortex or the Tonemaster Pro. Your video has been especially helpful, thank you a lot. Because of the Plugins I'm in the NDSP Universe anyway:) I dothough have a rather, I'd say stupid question - maybe you can help me with that. Sometimes friends and I just meet to play guitar together. So far each of us had their own little devices. I wonder though wether it would be possible to connect two guitars at the same time to the QC, give each of them an idividual chain of amps & effects and then play both guitars at the same time. Not recording, just playing. Thank you a lot :)
@@RabeaMassaad I really appreciate you answer and the time time that you took for me :) I'm really impressed right now wouldn't have thought that 2 guitars and a bass are possible. Do they then assign pedals (Tuner, Noise, Wha...) to each player? Or do they set up eveything in advance on the QC and go with that? I hope you're doing well, really love what you're doing :) Any chance you're touring in southern germany soon?
@@comore7 no problem. You’d just need to build out a signal chain for each player. It’s not too difficult, you can assign different outputs as well. So it’s all possible. We are playing in cologne in October. I’m not sure which part of Germany that’s in though haha
@@RabeaMassaad Wow, thank you so much :) Yeah, happy to hear that. Wanted to go to Köln in October anyway :D As if you knew that. You have a wonderful day today:) Thanks again
for the licensing, how often does the QC need to have internet access? Do the licenses otherwise expire on the QC? Usually my stuff stays in the rehearsal room with no Internet access

Well. Tried the same configuration. doesn't sound the same as in this demo 😆 I'm still curious, what do these guys do when demoing a product. Post production before uploading the video? An isolated power supply. What's the magic? My tones don't sound as they should.
With modellers I don’t really do anything to the tone in post as I get the sounds right in the box. The only thing I add is a limiter to the master so it doesn’t clip
@@RabeaMassaad reply from the man himself. Thank you very much. I’ve been playing around with it and I managed to get a decent sound. I wanted to see you with Frogleap at Rockstadt 2 days ago but I got sick and had to leave.
So... to take full advantage of the new update one should spend a couple hundred bucks on plugins that up to yesterday didn't seem necessary. Just joking, looks like an interesting update (if you own such plugins).
It’s more than just the plugin ahah. The side chain features are mega handy. Plus some new delays and bits here and there. The plugins are obviously the biggest talking point I guess
@@RabeaMassaad spent like 4 hours playing around this afternoon and in the end I have to say the update is great. Also, neuralDSP was so kind to give me an archetype of choice for FREE (just happened an hour ago), so in the end I also had the opportunity to try this exciting feature. Happyyy :)
Check the eq on both the plug in and the QC..... It Is not the same. Look at the low end frequencies and get back to me. Def not the same and Axe FX III sounds better and had far superior effects
Not just X. X and PCOM. Only PCOM X plug-ins can be used within the Cortex. They are going to release Billy, Soldano and some others in CorOS 3.1.0, while Archetype:Petrucci Will be released on a major version after 3.1.0. it will require some time to have all PCOM plug-ins available. But they just started.
If you have a few neural dsp plugins already bought i'd go with the QC, if not, the FM3 or FM9 are amazing units. Personally I have the Axe Fx III mk2 for studio recording and the QC for studio and live use (I would've bought the FM3 but I already own like 8-9 plugins by neural so the QC will gain a lot of value for me with plugin compatibility)
I sold my QC for an FM3 because I bought into the hype of it having the best tones. They definitely were not night and day, there were some pros over the QC, and it's a great unit, but it has limitations that were frustrating for me, like not being able to use more than 1 reverb and the UI was horrendous to use compared the the easy WC touchscreen and UI. I sold my FM3 and literally just bought a QC again yesterday. Just my 2 cents.
It depends of what you need. I owned both and i sold the QC because i don't need 8 switchs, i already have a Axe fx and i prefer the mid range sound of Fractal. Both are great and equal but with differents ways to do your sound.
Is there any reason you could not just build your own patches bassed of the plugins I still don't understand why this was not implemented 4 years ago other than trying to keep people interested in the QC when there are way more options now.
I don’t think it’s a case of trying to keep people interested. It’s simply because people wanted to have the plugins on there. There’s more than enough devices in QC to not really neeeeed the plugin devices. But it’s nice to have especially when people are basing their entire sound around the plugin. There might be more options. But it’s up to people what to they like. I don’t care about a ton of different options. I just want easy workflow, great feel and sound and a reliable professional unit I can use on tour or in the studio. And QC (for me) does that perfectly. The icing is them adding more and more to it. Plus when my plugin is on there. I can’t think of another modeller than can do the synth. There are synth effects with other devices. But none that create synth the way mine does. At that point, the game is changed again
I doubt it. A couple of plugins on QC is hardly likely to sway someone that’s invested in a platform already. That’s like saying to someone “are you gonna switch from Xbox to PS5 because of the exclusives” hahaha
I can not wait to to use your synth on my QC when it’s available!!

Personally I have the Axe Fx III mk2 for studio recording and the QC for studio and live use (I would've bought the FM3 but I already own like 8-9 plugins by neural so the QC will gain a lot of value for me with plugin compatibility)
I sold my QC for an FM3 because I bought into the hype of it having the best tones. They definitely were not night and day, there were some pros over the QC, and it's a great unit, but it has limitations that were frustrating for me, like not being able to use more than 1 reverb and the UI was horrendous to use compared the the easy WC touchscreen and UI.
I sold my FM3 and literally just bought a QC again yesterday. Just my 2 cents.
It depends of what you need. I owned both and i sold the QC because i don't need 8 switchs, i already have a Axe fx and i prefer the mid range sound of Fractal. Both are great and equal but with differents ways to do your sound.
Bea X next?!?!?!?
Is there any reason you could not just build your own patches bassed of the plugins I still don't understand why this was not implemented 4 years ago other than trying to keep people interested in the QC when there are way more options now.
I don’t think it’s a case of trying to keep people interested. It’s simply because people wanted to have the plugins on there.
There’s more than enough devices in QC to not really neeeeed the plugin devices. But it’s nice to have especially when people are basing their entire sound around the plugin.
There might be more options. But it’s up to people what to they like. I don’t care about a ton of different options. I just want easy workflow, great feel and sound and a reliable professional unit I can use on tour or in the studio. And QC (for me) does that perfectly. The icing is them adding more and more to it.
Plus when my plugin is on there. I can’t think of another modeller than can do the synth. There are synth effects with other devices. But none that create synth the way mine does. At that point, the game is changed again
How do we download the free plugin?
You should have an email telling you how to do it
@@RabeaMassaadThank you brother! Hopefully the Soldano SLO 100 X will be compatible next 😎!
I presume this means only neaural plugins, no third party?
Sign me up for a masterclass buddy, for real!!!!
I wonder if John cordy will now ditch the helix ?
I doubt it. A couple of plugins on QC is hardly likely to sway someone that’s invested in a platform already.
That’s like saying to someone “are you gonna switch from Xbox to PS5 because of the exclusives” hahaha
@RabeaMassaad 💯 honest dude.
Do will be able to load our DAW's own presets into the QC ?
Not yet.
soon
Does anyone know if the petrucci plugin will be compatible eventually ?
My understanding is that eventually they’ll all be on QC
Anyone else get a free plugin with the update?
