No, the kraken is based on a jcm800/hot rod Marshall and a 5150.Wait! Is the Kraken based on the Rockerverb?

As long as all of the I/O remains intact, and there’s a significant savings vs Quad Cortex, could be a winner.

I remember looking at Victory stuff and there were no presence knobs? Am I inventing that or was it a V1 thing?The Kraken V2 has one...
They have kind of solved the wi fi with the editor you can now just use you computerNoise issues and poor wifi connection come to mind first as hardware issues that could be fixed.
Yeah the V1 didn't have it for who knows why. I didn't like the Victory Kraken or Sheriff that much honestly. Would be interested in trying the Kraken V2 and Super Sheriff.I remember looking at Victory stuff and there were no presence knobs? Am I inventing that or was it a V1 thing?
So you are saying you would be doing QC -> USB -> computer -> WiFi -> Cortex Cloud for backups/content management?They have kind of solved the wi fi with the editor you can now just use you computer signal
Is it ideal ? No but for most I think it will help
Yes, that was just a mock up done by a customerThat certainly seems pretty optimistic as a design, and would probably be hated for the cramped switches too.
Something more like the Hotone Ampero II Stomp might be possible with a larger touchscreen and 3 switches that act as encoders as well. That's still only slightly larger than the Boss GT-1000 Core or HX Stomp. About the same as a Strymon Bigsky or Volante, or half the QC if you rotate the pedal.
That would be a great product for NeuralDSP because it makes the entry to their ecosystem cheaper, which potentially leads to more people buying their plugins to expand the capabilities.
It's honestly weird how NeuralDSP has fumbled on business opportunities with their device. The Cortex Cloud is ripe for being a platform that sells professional captures and presets for a percentage cut like smartphone app stores, but it seems to be very quiet on that front.
Yeah , I would just leave it hard wired in my music room if I am recording anywaySo you are saying you would be doing QC -> USB -> computer -> WiFi -> Cortex Cloud for backups/content management?
I like it but where is your main volume ? On the back

True , and if they are using any design as a blue printWorks just fine for the Stomp XL!
That's a fairly recent workaround. I had to use my phone hotspot and have it right next to the QC whenever I wanted to download updates or make a backup or anything that requires the internet. Even though my router was at most a meter away. It was also really noisy compared to the FM3 that replaced it.They have kind of solved the wi fi with the editor you can now just use you computer

I'd say there's leeway for making it smaller without making touch targets too small.I'm not sure how will the UI would translate if they shrank the screen. It works great now but the screen is almost as big as an HX Stomp by itself.
I think it depends if they are only going for one signal chain they could shrink it a bitI'm not sure how will the UI would translate if they shrank the screen. It works great now but the screen is almost as big as an HX Stomp by itself.
