NDSP Quad Cortex

[the swede]

who is NOLLY?

Producer and musician mostly known in modern metal circles. Has played with Periphery and worked on a bunch of good stuff as a producer. Makes plugins/software, GetGood Drums (plugin drum) wich is quite good and popular. Has what I would say great ears, and also quite intelligent and nice dude overall.

Nolly was a bit of a jack of all trades and that's exactly why I barely used it. Whenever I had something specific in mind I'd reach for something that did that specific thing better. Granophyre and Cali for crushing metal. Plini for awesome prog. Tone King for sweet cleans. Petrucci for soaring leads.

Nolly just got left on the shelf.

 

[Jynx]

Oh shit! Why is this just hitting me now!

I see a preset featuring all the above in one in my future.

 

[Jynx]

Heh. This smiley looks a bit like Nolly.

I love how people are complaining about the free plugin on the unity forum now. Apparently only early adopters should have gotten something and this is NDSP screwing them over.

Saw that shit. Such entitlement.

Plini & Tone King would cover A LOT of ground for me !

Well, NDSP did promise something extra for the early adopters the last time they announced a free plug-in, so now the early adopters are seeing everyone get 2 free plugins while they still don’t know what they’re supposed to get.

Once again, this could easily be solved by NDSP just telling them what they’re going to get, or if they never said anything to start with.

This is the quotey mcquoteface from way back: "If you purchased your Quad Cortex before August 1st, 2023, unfortunately, you won’t be able to take advantage of this promotion. However, we’ve got some good news for you – we’ve got a special gift waiting for you when we roll out Plugin Compatibility on the Quad Cortex. Stay tuned"

They should've just said that there's a special gift waiting for everyone. Seems like a nightmare to try and gift something to early adopters only. Also the earliest adopters should definitely get a better gift than the less early adopters.

It’s ridiculous you don’t see recent owners complaining they didn’t get the coffee table book the early adopters got

 

[Whizzinby]

Its hilarious anyone would complain about… FREE.

May this never end.

Even my blackened heart finds it hilarious anyone would complain about… FREE.

EXACTLY
Technically NDSP does not owe anybody anything

If you made the choice to be a early adopter , then that what it is , but I don’t think they are obligated to compensate people for freely buying a product
They also were giving 100% refunds of the deposit once you knew what was and was not going to be available at launch

You're right, they aren't. But if they said they were going to then it kinda falls on them to follow through. As @DrewJD82 said, either don't say these types of things or follow through when you do.

Is it worth throwing a hissy fit over? Nah. But just the continuing trend of them saying what people want to hear and then not doing it

Honestly, once 3.0 drops they should just stop talking entirely, including dev updates. For as great as they are marketing, they are absolute slap dicks when it comes to communicating with the user base. Everyone knows the score now. They’ll keep funneling plugs and update the core device occasionally. Just stop talking and let Rabea keep making videos.

[Stone]

I still don't get why they don't release it. I mean I do but it's stupid

He did say its a complete Game Changer

 

[Los-D]

They are playing the wrong game …

[Jynx]

I've been trying out the plugins I don't have tonight and goddammit that Morgan suite is fire.

I think I know what I'm taking on the 31st.

 

[Stone]

Most of the Demos I have seen is that they have their QC on the desk or some kind of elevated rack and they use the touch screen and encoder knobs.
So why put footswitch cause yeah thats what they are foot switches at your feet not on top of a desk
Sure looks easy and intuitive to use though but i can't see myself always bending down to make patches and adjustments
I can see the appeal for gigging musicians and quite frankly I cant say how useful or how many times you need to make adjustments at a gig since i have no experience with that
