Quilter Elevate


I just saw this and its the similar control buttons. Is this a trend now?
 
Cool!

But....

As a user that got sick of modelers (option paralysis and my own shortcommings and whatnot) this looks very good to me. But unfortunately in my personal case it still is heavily leaning into being the box that gets me caught up in to many options and less playing. A Walrus ACS1 or TC Ampworx like box would have appealed to me more. Preferably one or max three amp models with three cab sims. I just need restriced no choices to stay focused on enjoying guitar playing.... unfortunately for me that is... and admitedly im one of thoose few extreme examples that just cant find a way back into the multipupose boxes.

But hey... well done Quilter! I like the thought of it, and the looks. And very cool youre here!

Is there Neunaber stuff... stuffed inside that box?
Actually, I think this would be right up your alley. Instead of analysis paralysis, there are logical "modes" that get you where you want rather quickly.

Those are contact buttons. We are using capacitive sensing which do not wear out.
 
I'm all for companies trying new things. The sort of anti-modeler concept kinda reminds me of what Rocktron did back in the day, providing you with a few amp types here and there rather than emulating anything in particular. That being said, I have yet to watch the above video so I'm curious to see how it'll actually sound.
 
To be fair, you could kind of say the same thing about the fractal products where you just program it using the desktop editor and never touch the on-device tweaking controls during a gig. Sure you could learn it and get proficient at it, but most people are not doing anything on the fly..
 
One plus of Quilter getting into the modeling game is that they might take a swing at making a good """FRFR"""
Pat Quilter is the "Q" in QSC so there is definitely ths knowledge and foundation to do that. I'd like to see quilter make a better FR12/ FR10 style powered cab. One that has all of the improvements that the archangel preamp brought to the Fender users plus the secret sauce added to class D.

I don't understand the nuances of "constant current" and speaker damping but I know that quilter does and makes amps that sound and feel damn close to their tube powered cousins.
