NDSP Quad Cortex

[dean701]

Does QC have a dual detune?

if you are talking about the micropitch effect, you can do it with two pitch blocks and pan them. Although the video depicts this, I think it could be better with more mix.

That would be awful. Seriously, fuck these devices that require a phone to edit. Yuck.

I agree.





Unless it’s Fractal. Hi Cliff!

I agree.

As far as I know, now that the Cortex Control computer app is out, there is no need for a phone. I hated that liking shit on a phone and then finding it later. What a convoluted mess. I'll try the micropitch and the cloud stuff once I get my hands on a unit again. Might be a while tho. I'll let the dust settle from the 3.0 fallout first.

I was going through the manual today

On the flip side, I’m here for tablet editors. (USB and/or BT) I hope eventually all the top platforms have great on-device UI’s, as well as desktop and tablet editors.

Anyone have an opinion on Plini vs Nolly plugins? Mostly for metal.

I may be in the minority here, but for metal rhythm guitar I actually prefer Plini to Nolly. The trick with Plini is to turn the bass of the lead amp down and the treble up at the same time, a bit like using a tilt EQ. That way I get a sound that's extremely close to the JVM OD2 Orange channel, with that angry midrange around 1 kHz.

In the real amp world this is the missing information for dialing in many amps.

They don’t but they should definitely add one so you can do the EVH Micropitch thing

I don’t think Cliff would do something so stupid. I could see him possibly caving in on the people wanting a touchscreen, maybe. But a device that relies upon on an app that he’s got to submit to Apple for approval every time there’s a change? No way.

Optional, yes.

Agreed ,There is so many changes and Fractal known for their rapid fire updates getting approvals would become a large hindrance to that development style fast

The Minivoicer thing can do something along those lines though

Yeah, minivoicer does sonething like this but there's also nothing stopping you creating two inputs and putting one pitch-shifter on each.

Can get creative with it.

Thanks man. I may get Pliny as my free choice for a plugin since it already is QC compatible (I have Gojira already). Then hopefully by Black Friday Nolly is QC ready.

Drip feed!

Have the effects on the quad cortex gotten better overtime? I know a lot of them were kind of shit at the beginning.

Yes. I think so. The flangers and phasers that were added that were based on real devices are definitely better than the generic ones.

Yes , minivoicer has 4 voice right ?
If you put 2 voices +9 And 2 -9
And pan them you should have it

Man I just want to see a vid with him wailing away with the new PCM Delay , no one has shown that one too much yet

That'll be one of the drip feeds I'm sure.

Minivoicer seems to be a harmonizer with no fine tune in cents.
