I’ve had the QC for over a year and still haven’t scratched the surface on what it can do and how to properly set it up to utilize all its features. Your video was a big help with your step by step explanations of building a chain and working with scenes. Thanks for the excellent video. My only complaint would be your excessive use of the whammy bar. That’s probably just me though 😊.

Can you share what desk stand you're using with the QC in your video? Thanks

I'm a so tempted by a QC but being a very average bedroom player its hard to justify! One thing that would be good to see is using the QC in 4CM with a tube amp and FX loop and setting it up so you can use QC preamp or Amp preamp, i have watched a few video but still don't 100% get it!

Great video sir! I have a HX Stomp, Pedals and Amp setup which works really well for me but the Cortex is on the radar but the cost vs single point of failure means at the moment its a want not a need!

Thanks for checking it out man! I actually use a similar set up with an HX stomp when I need to get a little more out my standard board, great little unit. The scene setup on the quad has been a game changer in the studio for our videos and when we use it direct, it's amazing!

@@guitarguitaruk The Stomp is in the loop for mod and time based and I have a plethora with 2 gain stages and a 2 channel amp.......... I do not need a quad cortex ha ha #convincingmyself

I think the GAS is real for the both of us 🤣
