NDSP Quad Cortex

I have Nameless, Petrucci, Rabea and Mesa. I feel the urge to get something for cleans for once. I’m eyeing Cory Wong, Asato, or the Morgan suite - thoughts from anyone who has them?

No but I was talking to a mate who was doing the same thing as you. He already has rabea and Henson and he tried a few other ones on demo and concluded the fender in the rabea plugin was the best. Everyone’s mileage is different but I guess it’s worth a second look for cleans

He was also eyeing down the cali76 stacked compressor pedal cause he likes it so much in rabea. I told him to just buy a qc at this point

I'm hovering over Soldano just to have a new toy on my QC.

I got it when the sale dropped & it's becoming my favorite amp to play in the QC. Just feels massive, fast attack & not piercing at loud volumes.

Still hovering.

If he likes Rabea that much it would make sense!

Have you tried the Tone king one , I thought it was really nice for cleans and EOB stuff when I had the demo

At the very least I’m glad I revisited Nameless - that’s all I need or want for high gain.

I love it too, but I also love Granophyre. Once that's released it'll be lefty/righty double tracking on those two for everything.

I will buy Granophyre in 3 years when it’s compatible

Last friday I had a gig in a medium auditorium (600 audience or so). I´m just posting to share some thoughts.

My buddy (lead guitar) used his Quad Cortex. I used my Nano Cortex. Both direct to PA and monitored through wedges provided by the venue.

It was Ok. Perfectly fine. BUT:

- He has some trebly presets (because it´s mandatory for the sounds he needs, since We´re a tribute band and the original sound is that way). With those presets, "FRFR" monitor always struggle in the high frequencies, were tweeters start to make strange things... it´s like them resonating or squealing or feedbacking in a way a 12" speaker never does. With IEMS he doesn´t have the problem, so the QC is not guilty, but "FRFR" monitors.

- Even when everything was OK, it´s just not the same feeling as having a guitar cab behind you. The tone is there... I wouldn´t dare to say anyone that I´m able to notice sound differences. I most surely don´t. But there´s something that I just dig more with a traditional cab. Same old discussion, I know. Just wanted to share that gig experience.
