I am thinking of putting my QC onto a board with DC7, has it been reliable for you ? Also thinking I am going to build another spare board with the Cioks Sol and put my Nano Cortex and Tonex one on it, with a looper for noodling and practicing around the house as a mini fly rig. Great video
Hey, the board is a Pedaltrain Metro 16 and the expression pedal is a Dunlop Mini DVP4 - video coming the end of this week about the expression pedal too.
I still have a disconnect between the modeler and the speaker. It just doesn't quite feel the same to me as it does with guitar & amp. Doesn't matter which modeler I try it's still the same feeling as though something is missing. I like the idea of these type of units, and they are becoming more & more necessary in a lot of cases. Very convenient for sure. My HRP does a great job and I really like it but I'll still choose the amp if given the choice.
100% agree, there is nothing quite like the 'feel' and also 'warmth' that you get from a valve amp. For ease and convenience though, digital for gigs/rehearsal. Always a trade off whichever route we take.
I’ve not used the mission engineering pedal so other than size I couldn’t say. But on paper, they both seem to do the same thing. I considered it for my setup but didn’t want that size pedal. Sorry, not much help…
How good is it to out on a regular speakers like bose? Does it sounds, feel and satisfying as a real tube amp? I mean it’s not thin coming out to a different speakers?
I think it’s just the same light and portable rig as carrying a tube combo amp like a friedman pink taco v1. And put your guitar effects like h9 or strymon in your guitar case. I guess you’ll enjoy it more. 👍
'regular' speakers are set up to enhance certain frequencies so i would say that you will need to adjust your presets to sound how you want them to, but this applies to all monitoring options too, whether it is headphones, regular speakers, studio monitors, a traditional guitar speaker cabinet, an FRFR style cabinet and also the pa at gigs. Everything will sound slighlty different so adjust to taste.
thats is also a great option and you can't beat the warmth and feeling of a valve amp in my opinion, for me though playing pub gigs, it is one more thing to carry and set up, an amp head as well as separate pedals/pedalboard. The QC has both covered in one.
What would you chose as a back up for your gigs should the worst happen? The HX Stomp? Or maybe even the Tone X One?
I already use the HX stomp as my main modeller and it does a great job, however, I would love to try the quad cortex
that little hx stomp is such a versatile bit of kit. I am going to gig it, on its own soon.

Have had no issues with it at all, it can get a little warm sometimes but nothing that has caused any problems.
Hi Tim, interesting video. Thnx for all the good tips. Which pedalboard and exp pedal are you using?
Hey, the board is a Pedaltrain Metro 16 and the expression pedal is a Dunlop Mini DVP4 - video coming the end of this week about the expression pedal too.
Link for the board you used? And what model is that dunlop?
I was looking at this same rig as I want to downsize from helix LT
@@garygallardo28 the board is a pedal train metro 16 and the Dunlop is a dvp4.

Is there any difference between the Dunlop and mission engineering expression pedal?
