sOoN... again?

Wow those are some great tones and that's a great reverb sound too.

Even the guitar is optional

Now we're talking!!

It's like the synth block in the Axe-Fx

Sacrilege!

Sacrilege!

Ok maybe not quite - here's the copy:

Mono Synth​

The Mono Synth is a free version of the Overlord Synth from Archetype: Rabea X, featuring enhanced functionality such as MIDI note control. It is a powerful guitar synthesizer that opens up an entirely new world of sounds for all Quad Cortex users. Tracking is highly responsive, and you can dial in everything from creamy leads to gritty synth bass.

Overlord Synth​

Play a full-featured synth using any standard guitar, no keyboard or MIDI programming required.

Our subtractive monosynth incorporates proprietary note triggering, pitch tracking, and envelope tracking algorithms, allowing you to control the synth seamlessly with your guitar. Featuring dual oscillators with unison options, a ladder-style filter, and a built-in arpeggiator, this intelligent device brings world-class synth sounds to the modern guitarist.

I can’t hear the changes on the A/B at all there.

Pete's vid is even better at the A/B test - NC v2 seems legit. Kudos to NDSP.
Might just grab a Nano for this alone.

For the NC, I use literally 2 cables.

This below is Tonex, and I believe PC connection is required, right?

If you want to break this down to NC's connections:

• Input 1 L = NC guitar input. Can be left out if you don't want to use your guitar.
• Output 3/4 L/R = NC headphones output for monitoring. Can be left out.
• Main Output L = NC capture out
• Input 2R = NC capture in

It's the same amount of cables, and if NC supports V2 captures, you will need a computer for that too.

Having finished watching yet - but wow I think NDSP is redeeming itself with this update - those are some great tones.

Ah ok.
Still waiting for some company to come up with their take of something Roland-esque. Monophonic isn't exactly too interesting for me.

I wish one of these guitar MFX manufacturers would partner with Jam Origin and get it over with.

The mono synth is very playable but it’s as glitchy as any hex or mono-to-poly detection, albeit in a different way. Pick your poison, I guess.

You can do it somewhat in the Axe FX / FM9, and to some extent I even was able to replicate this in the VP4. But if you run the Fractal Sawtooth synth into a quad diatonic pitch block, you can get a really full sounding synth pad that's just gorgeous. There's a stock preset I can't remember the name of, and I've been using this so long I can't tell you what is my edit and what was Fractal's original preset, but here's the path I'm using. Mainly it's the synth and quad pitch, into an oscillating HP filter that really does it, with the chorus and Plex Delay making it pretty.

That Mono Synth block really calls out the need for block presets/ favorites on the QC.

This is great, but OMG say "Parallelax" again.

Every block should have this. In my Axe Fx II from years back had we had 10 for every block.
Not having this in the QC is stupid
