For some reason, I was thinking about exactly this this morning. My guess is they would go with the same sized screen regardless, so they could get better price per volume on the part, and invest less in R&D for an OS and UI overhaul. Fewer switches/encoders, less I/O, and half the processing power (a la Stomp vs. Helix Floor) would seem likely, but...
I totally get where you're coming from here. FAS absolutely slays NDSP for quality and variety of FX.
On the other hand... I so rarely wake up thinking, "How will I ever be able to play my guitar today without a 'The Cytherians' reverb model?? Oh the horror the horror." Sometimes it all seems a little bonkers. Could do with a happy medium, maybe.
In fairness, Kemper and Sweetwater said the very same thing.
I use the extra lanes of DSP the same way I used them on the HX Floor (since the architecture is fundamentally the same): for extra audio channels, e.g. vocals, bass guitar, etc. in the studio. QC is not going to be the device of choice for every application, obviously. (I've just cued up the "or any application" punchlines for ya. Have at 'em, kids.
)
Maybe I should take a selfie of my happy face while on the toilet, as I just downloaded 2 captures of the Pussy Melter pedal from the Cortex CloudI totally get where you're coming from here. FAS absolutely slays NDSP for quality and variety of FX.

Whatever's going on here, I think we can all agree, it's Funnier With Cats™.
Personally, I usually put on a happy face in the toilet for other reasons, but to each his own!Maybe I should take a selfie of my happy face while on the toilet, as I just downloaded 2 captures of the Pussy Melter pedal from the Cortex Cloud
Man this thing is fun to use!
Or maybe let's not?
Alrighty, then. I'll just file that under "Things I'll need to Google After Work"...
1000%
At least the noise level at NAMM covers up the dreadful ground loop.Folks at NAMM having a nervous poop when opening the floor to the guests, letting them play through the QC`s.
..will it work
..ohh I hope it works
.....this must be a miracle..day 3 ...it still works....

In what universe? Like all of a sudden he doesn’t know what happens a few bars ahead.

Noise gates and humbusters oh my.
I would however wake up thinking “How will I ever be able to play these surf songs without a ‘spring’ reverb model??”
Here's a very crude mockup (good ol' MS Paint LOL) of where NDSP could take a "Dual Cortex" design without significantly impacting UI/UX. Move a hard power switch to the back, make the top right footswitches assignable to bank up/down vs. tempo/tuner per user preference, and make the top right encoder assignable to various global volumes similar to the QC "big knob" at top left. Take my money.For some reason, I was thinking about exactly this this morning.

I'm sure there's a potato cam somewhere of him letting a drunk guy use their face for a whammy bar that will appease your strict criteria
