NDSP Quad Cortex

It seems they put a bunch in it. I'm guessing $1200

It was fun while it lasted

The full SW vid is on Reddit. Looks like capturing is on device. Rotary encoders. You can access all 8 scenes, you do a combo FS press to get to the second bank of scenes. Two full lanes. Seems like the full OS and compatibility.

Hmmmm.

It a weird design , why not just put the 4 encoders under the screen
I guess with the recent updates to Airstep you could just integrate that , this is basically FM0

Does it work with cortex control ?

That’s my guess. It’s not a micro device, judging by the comparison to the full unit in the video. Lots of IO and seemingly the full OS just down to two lanes. No way in hell this is $999 or under imo

I liked your design (?) a lot better.

Yeah no clue why they didn’t just align them under the screen.

The encoder switches are a huge reason why I like the QC lol

Makes it footswitchable if needed and encoders less cramped.

It's a somewhat similar design to the ASM Hydrasynth Explorer:

I can say that "4 encoders around a small screen" system works very well. But I would need to see the QC Mini to say if they have redesigned aspects of it to support that or not.

I am not sure this was their best option but it is what they did
Even the other smaller mock up someone did would have been better IMO

Yeah will come down to how intuitively the encoders map to onscreen elements.

$1200-$1300? - given L6 can do $1800-$2200 for Stadiums.

That’s where I worry like the actual amp stack and switches that might be a PITA considering the NDSP screen is not known to be as responsive as something like stadium
Someone said $1300 euro including VAT was showing on Italian dealer page

I know I'm a bit of a germphobe, the quad having footswitches working as knobs just make me think I'm playing out stepping on bathrooms then go play the gig and trying to tweak something . Now also stepping over the touchscreen?

You don’t have to use them. I don’t play out so it sits on my desk within reach to tweak, but I feel you. One gig of stomping on it and I’d stop using the rotary encoders

not for me but could be cool i guess
