Question is if most of their earnings are through hardware or plugins. I have to guess plugins and they haven't released a new one in quite some time. Also, unless it's something unique, once they saturated their plugin market the sales aren't going to equal the early days of Nameless, Cali, NTS, Plini etc if I had to take a guess

Personally, I think this is extends to QC too. Yes, Neural has an embarrassing tendency to overpromise, and that doesn't look to be changing any time soon. But the QC itself, now, delivers great functionality out of the box. There are a whole lot of people spending a whole lot of money for these things and not sending them back - which is entirely their prerogative. QC can't be sucking that hard.

Points taken re: those who got burned at launch. On the flipside, I'm guessing those people recouped their money a long ways back. I've bought a lot of products from a lot of companies over the years that fell short of their promises, and in most cases that money just vaporized.

For me, there's a separating line though, in terms of money. For $550, for what the NC does now, AND as an ancillary purse rig, I'm fine with it. If it were to be a primary device for me, I'm less forgiving.

But that's been the most surreal part of being "the only guy in the world who likes the QC" (as it can sometimes feel in this particular forum LOL.) I consider myself a pretty tough customer. Like, a genuine pain in the ass. I have a long history of tearing products (even popular ones) apart over some tiny thing that bugs me. And yet somehow, I love BOTH my QC's. Go figure.

I like the QC too, the times I’ve played it. Captures are definitely better than the Kemper, effects are nice, usability is fantastic.

I loved my QC as well! I miss the chorus engine on that thing.

Yeah I’ve given up using gear in the past due to the stupid decisions, poor social media behavior, or missed deadlines from some manufacturers. I try to not get so caught up in that anymore and just take the product as it is right now. If I can gig it now, it works well for the job, and I can enjoy it then in the grand scheme I couldn’t care less when promises made about future developments happen. I think all the hand wringing over that stuff is a waste of time. Fun to bitch about on forums though evidently.

Two Quad Cortex’s (one for Tommy (vocals) and one for Tristan (stand in touring guitarists cuz band drama). Paul (lead guitar) is rocking a Kemper. BTBAM’s live tone is STUNNING and always has been, no matter what they use
