    Darnit Rabea. I passed on the quad 3x because I was unhappy with the Kemper and helix. No feel or sound that I liked tbh. I love my amps and pedals but you came along and played that big festival and now I have 2 quads. I also saw a light speed. Now I’m getting one. I want to try it again. I’m a recovering pedal addict. I’ve been doing good since the quad. It keeps me busy. But now it’s starting again. The pedal buying is creeping back. Oh well. I feel like I worked yrs to get where I’m at. I used awful gear for yrs but as I got better and well, utube came about the buying became an issue. Most people would’ve quit if they had my beginner’s gear. It was unplayable. Now you can get a nice beginner’s guitar for cheap. So I’m going to enjoy my amps, pedals and my quad. Congrats on the Ernie Ball guitar. I saw it coming when u we’re trying one during the frogleap tour. And so many endorsements. A new chapter. Congrats. 🎉 ps don’t forget your funk, blues, rock. Love that stuff.

    Have a QC since launch, and haven't had anything that comes close to it when it comes to capture an amp's tone, but, still waiting for the QC to be able to capture a fuzz pedal. My tone is 60% fuzz to an amp, and the other 40% it's just high gain stuff (actually a Kraken capture). When that time comes, that I can capture my fuzzes and use only the QC and an expression pedal, that will be one glorious day...

    Man, as a Kemper player, I have really missed the option for stereo rigs. Not that I need a stereo setup in the band I currently play in, but the QC has a huge advantage in being able to be a complete in-the-box stereo solution. And as a bass player as well as being a guitar player, the additional internal signal routing is also a step above the Kemper.
    Been loving my Kemper, and as an 'ecosystem' it works so well because the rest of the band uses the unit, but this video has me tempted to check out the QC.

    hmmm, i got seriously lost. whatever you were doing, the results were great. the extent of my ability to reduce the size of my single head and quad box is i've got a captor x coming. i hope to get a good di sound, turn it into stereo, and add delay and reverb after the stereo out of the captor x. retaining my core tone i love from the amp and the pedal board that is used in front of amp.

    Honest question.. i have an awesome mark V 25 with a matching cab and torpedo.. but almost never use it and the setup kinda kills the vibe as it takes so long to get running. i love this amp and when you play with a full band it sounds incredible… would it be worth it to swap the setup for a quad cortex? Also back issues will definitely make carrying around an amp+cab+torpedo+pedals difficult

I mean, creating awesome tones and sounds with these plugins in the music lab is amazing... and then forking out a fortune to not be able to use the sounds I create live, its annoying me just thinking about it and I haven't bought a QC yet 😂
    On a different note, I am curious about how anyone is using a QC with their pedals and how they switch between pedals like if they had a looper/switching system (like a Gig Rig G3)?
