A harmonic tremolo is pretty neat too.

Is there actually any difference between the existing delays and the plugin delays??

The '61 harmonic trem in this is so sweet.

@Orvillain i picked up a jhs ab pedal so I could immediately switch back and forth between the units. I notice a lot more high end presence on the axe 3 even with the same impulses and high cuts.

I’m curious about the updated deluxe models. Are there currently two different years or was that a typo?

I don’t love the current deluxe models, they seem to be lacking compared to the Fractal.

WHERES TINA

But in all honesty idk how you make a big deal about this AI robot and then include 0 new amps in the following update

Yeah, that's clown stuff for real. They had the nerve to call out Fender's amp modeling speed. Which one has released more new amp models in the past year, again....?

This is interesting. I just did a comparison between the Deluxe Verb Normal on each platform, and I found I preferred the QC out of the box. Axe3 is cool, but lacking a bit of bollocks for me, and a bit too gainy.

I've got my Neve DI box here acting as the splitter, and I'm sending to both units at once and using my RME ARC USB controller to change which I am monitoring in real time. Pretty cool setup tbh!

I saw the newsreel footage of it, and no one else in the band had any good ideas... so we chose a crap one!

People actually remember it though, so ... does the job!

Good job, @Achilles - I've been wondering of the origins of that, as well - but didn't want to look like a wanker. Oh, wait . . .

There's some killer documentaries of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge Disaster on YT. I believe
PBS did one on it not too many years ago.

Hope everyone reading these posts has watched the video of the whole thing.
Pretty unbelievable stuff - like if not for the video it'd be hard to believe how far everything flexed before giving way.

I had a framed picture of this hanging in my office as a constant reminder.

Used to be. Until stuff happened, and now I don't really know what is happening with that project. All my writing efforts are currently with Sloganyear, my solo project, and Summerisle, my new band.

I've been offering to host an AMA with Doug ever since we opened.

I just flagged a post by a moderator, who called someone who must've said something a bit untoward about the QC, a "prick"

I think he's trying to reduce his social media time/presence, and to be honest. I fully get it. I went through a phase where I was doing 13 hour days because I'd do my typical work day, then I'd do 4 hours catch up work, then I'd round it off with a few hours responding to private messages and Facebook posts, and at a certain point... fuck that... I don't get paid enough!!!

He's been very successful in his efforts to reduce the social media presents, going back to a couple days after the QC started shipping.

You could do what I do—completely and unapologetically ignore anything and everything that doesn't interest you. Like CS issues, NFR requests, "hook me up with your A&R guy so my band can get free gear," etc.

Oh, and never open any PM from LinkedIn.
