- This is a quick rundown of the Noise Gates and Freeze effect within the QC.
You can find the preset and captures under my Neural account (davlavMusic).

Best explanation for freeze! Thanks man!
Thanks a lot - your videos are very helpful, even if I am bass player. Please keep going in explaining general rules of quadcortex
It's ok to be a bass player. Just accept it.
Thanks. Very helpful!
I’ll try that out today and maybe send you a link that better describes what I’m try to say with words;)
On my board I always put a gate after overdrives, distortions, fuzzes (we'll call those the amps) but before my delay's and reverbs so it kills any gain noise, hiss but doesn't affect delay and reverb tails after it clamps down on the noise. Does the QC work differently in that putting a gate at the beginning kills noise from gain pedals and high gain amps AFTER it?
Given that it's digital, it's rare that any block would add noise that's not already there. I've run across that once or twice, but usually just having the gate on the input block works. One reason to do what you describe is if the upfront gate is causing issues when you turn down the volume in the guitar.
Great video. If using the freeze after that reverb block will the frozen note / chord keep the wet fx?
I don't think so. The freeze is just s point in time. So delays and reverb should come after.
@davlavmusic7070 do you have any idea why the twin reverb model is so much quieter at the same volume setting than a deluxe reverb even though IRL the twin is much louder? If both my deluxe and twin blocks are set to 5 on volume, the deluxe is MUCH louder than a twin.
That is strange. I tried it myself and seems like the Deluxe is about 3-4dB louder than the Twin model. Not sure why that is. I wouldn't expect the models to mimic the amp power IRL, but I would expect them to be about the same volume. You can always use the Output level to balance them out without affecting the tone at all.
You really are a magician… would you consider making a preset for a fee?
Sure, depending on the preset I guess. I'm not really a big fan of metal tones, for example, and not sure I could do a good preset for that. What are you thinking?
I play predominantly, praise and worship. I’m not sure how familiar you are with that genre :-) edge of break up, lots of dotted eighth and airy reverbs for example but I personally just can’t seem to quite get it and would be eternally grateful. 99% of the time we use in ear monitoring, and stereo out to House.
Not super familiar with exactly what you're looking for. For edge of breakup I'd probably use a MS Lonestar. Have you tried me preset where I recreate the Halo on the QC? neuraldsp.com/cloud/p/eaaafb4a-0fb7-4d9b-9ed0-c06b60809c53
