NDSP Quad Cortex

[Jynx]

Been playing around with OBS again this morning. It's really good.

I usually make videos for my jazz lessons and sync sound from my DAW and video from my phone together in DaVinci resolve but now I'm thinking I can record it all together here.

I’m on a Mac, the usb outputs don’t show up.
I’m not aware of specific wet/dry settings…in the global out menu?

Swipe down on the QC screen or, if using Cortex Control, settings > IO. Then click the USB symbol and on tab 2 of the options you can switch wet and dry signal. Wet comes out 1&2 instead of 3&4.

You guys think this will power a QC properly?
Summing the 2 outputs + the 12V for the “link” should be 2A.

That 1A 12v output is meant for adding a power extension…not sure if that is with consequense when used to power a unit..

I asked on Discord. They said they wouldn't try it. Most use this.

Someone (forget if FB group, Discord or the unity neural forum) mentioned a Strymon Ojai worked great. Just need the Cioks Crux to convert 24V to 12V.

EDIT: more specially the Strymon power supply. If you load up an Ojai with other pedals or too many high current draw ones, the QC won’t have enough current. But on its own it appears to be enough.

CIOKS Crux + 2x Strymon Ojais?

Hi there! So, I just received my CIOKS Crux through the mail, and I plugged it into the 24V thru of the second Strymon Ojai in my power chain and… it power cycles before rebooting. Doesn’t get to the load screen. I’ve switched it to 12v, before any asks, but I wonder why it struggles to boot...

Who said? Any explanation why?

 

[Aleksi]

Thnx…is that fama “just a dude”…or ndsp support person?

They're all just dudes/dudettes. You might get a super rare comment from someone at NDSP, but that's less than once in a full moon.

Gotta have the most expensive shit, man. Don't even bother trying anything less, even if it totally looks like it could work.

Yeah they gave no reason why it wouldnt work lol

They actually said it would work and idk, it's power at the end of the day. As long as it's supplying the 2A at 12v I don't get why it matters

I would hope that he already has somebody under his wing to pass the torch to. That would be a wise business decision.

Nah. Just sell out and/or license all your tech and then sail off into the sunset. It’s the modern way. Fender AxeFx IV.

Mod. Knows his stuff.

He didn't even give a reason why it wouldn't work lol

That's like saying my boss only works with certain power supplies. It just doesn't make sense

I'm not saying the mod isn't knowledgeable but in this case he gave no explanation.

 

[JiveTurkey]

They have stock in Ciocks.

 

[GTR37]

You would freaking think then they would have bought a power supply from them and not golden. Nuggets

Actually he said it would probably work with some sort of doubler cable but he wouldn't try it himself.

I guess AFK is free to try it but it's at his own risk. I just didn't want to be responsible for recommending it.

Which...is not a reason? It's not like the HB is adding poison to its electrons. If hit doesn't put out the power it says it does, worst case scenario is...the QC doesn't boot and he returns it. I don't get why the new trend is throwing $250 at the most boring problem that can usually be solved with $75 "just to be safe".

Probably because people have yet to figure out the exact reasons why the QC would randomly fail.

Like I said. Knock yourselves out. I just use the adapter that came with it so I don't know anything about this.

A question was asked and I sought an answer. Was only trying to be helpful.

 

[Achilles]

Ditto here. Probably the same for most folks.
Not trying to discount those who do have issues.
But, dang!
Ya'll sure do enjoy keeping it in the news around here.

Meh, Ejay asked about a possible power supply. No one is rehashing tired old BS. I'm sure someone else will be along soon to rehash tired old BS.
