    I wish i could have the chance to even jam with Josh.
    I respect naturally he's got his own visions in how he approaches this art undoubtedly.
    He really is his own ascended version of a guitarist, a frequency theorist with no limits when it comes to providing emotion to complexity.
    I respect the technicalities of his gear as he articulates those intricacies.
    What drives me to appreciate him as a musician is how he encapsulates the competency of his knowledgeable perspective with improv and waves for melodic communication.
    As a primarily identified Drummer while being a keys player and somewhat a dabbling guitarist in micro-experiences, i got to say in drumming, i see the appeal in why Matt loves to assist in brushing the textures they solidify as a pair of musicians that appreciate each other melodical and, i suppose sonically.
    I hope this comment ages well, cause i dont like to talk much.
    Also.
    Learning to pan right now with the NobixForce which feels weird isolating, but I'm starting to feel in real-time how it's an important factor towards recognizing the musicians you're working with.
    Thanks for sharing your feels and knowledgeable perspectives, Josh.

    Amazing video! I knew that the QC had the capability to be used as an audio interface, but I never thought that the signal could be sent back via the usb to the QC. That opens so much possibilities. even to use outboard gear in the QC loops.

  • @josuastangl7140
    @josuastangl7140 Месяц назад +3

    Would be an interesting challenge to also mix with the QC as outboard gear.
    It has an 1176, SSL bus comp, an opto, EQs etc
    You might even be able to monitor the mix bus with the SSL bus comp while still working on individual tracks and bouncing those one after another.
    Also now with CorOS 3 enabling sidechain compression, you could even use it as a de-esser.

    This is so sick! I just got a QC and this is exactly how I was hoping to apply it to my workflow. Do you ever record DIs and print the tone afterwards? I'm trying to think of the best way to get DIs while recording with it.

    • @assassin1872
      @assassin1872 Месяц назад +2

      I usually record a di at the same time as a printed tone, that way I can change it if I want but the performance still has the tone

    • @nickbroomhallmusic
      @nickbroomhallmusic Месяц назад +3

      ​@@assassin1872 Yeah I figured the best way might just be the classic route. Get the printed tone on one track and the DI on another

    • @josuastangl7140
      @josuastangl7140 Месяц назад +1

      @@nickbroomhallmusic Yes, you can directly record from the QC's input 1 (or 2) onto one track and from whatever USB out you set on the grid to another track.
      So you don't have to route the DI inside the QC separately.
      You only worry about the processed sound on the QC's grid and record the DI separately in the background by selecting "Input 1" on the DI track in Logic.

  • @Arverick
    @Arverick 2 дня назад

    Very cool, though I guess I would be more interested in seeing something more crazy like using the quad cortex as a vst3 plugin instead. So, recording direct to any interface, add the non-existent plugin to the track, and now the track's audio is processed by the quad cortex

    Hello Joshua, great video!
    What drums are you using on this video?

  • @MaddMag
    @MaddMag Месяц назад

    I was using my Line 6 as an interface before diving down the Neural rabbit hole and getting 3 plugins. I liked their sound and streamlined nature more than building line 6 presets. Plus, the option of recording a DI that you can tinker with made it a no brainer to go solely plugins. I ended up selling my line 6 and got a cheap behringer interface with fits my space with its smaller form factor. I also sold my suhr and got one of the Emi 8's when they dropped. Bringing an 8 to church gigs and blues jams feels out of place so that killed my need for a live audio setup.
    When I do financially recover from getting into photograph (fuji xs10 with 18-55 kit) I'll probably save my way to a custom build 6 string and the QC. Until then I'm perfectly content with plugins.

    I've been having a grand ol time experimenting with mixing/matching plugin elements just in the FX chain of my guitar channel in the DAW. Asato Amps into Rebea cabs back into Asato Tape Delay into Rabea Delay and Reverb. It would be fantastic if Neural developed an interface/system for doing this like you're describing and doing with the Cortex system.

    • @JoshuaDeLaVictoria

  • @eternalforce116
    @eternalforce116 Месяц назад

    Ignorant question - how are you getting the MIDI instruments to then record onto the audio tracks? (Eg: the cymbals that you end up reversing). Would LOVE to understand this completely. I've always used my QC as my main interface but it's clear I could be using it much more in depth than how I am haha

  • @frmtheden

    amazing walkthrough! Curius question how are you recording the video of this? is it just straight into the camera and then edited after or are you doing it like a stream style where its a source being recorded while you screen record? Keep up the awesome videos!

    • @JoshuaDeLaVictoria
      @JoshuaDeLaVictoria  Месяц назад +4

      Thanks! So I’m recording from my camera, mic, and computer screen all separately at the same time. Then I sync everything in post. This allows me to have the highest quality I can. The problem with recording "stream style" is that you lose so much quality
