I just got a quad cortex mini this week and I have been having tons of fun with it. I’ve already found some great presets and I’ve been really wanting to find more. I’d love to play through them and really look into them more and learn from them to build my own presets. I mainly love metal but some great chorus cleans are also amazing. What are some presets that y’all would recommend. This could also be IRs you’d recommend too. Thanks!

I can’t find anything specific about this in any modeler subs but I’m trying to determine if I should get another 2x12 cab for gigs or use my JCM 900 Lead Angled cab with 4x12’s (loaded with Celestion G12T-75 and rated for 300 watts) with my QC mini (obv with the cab emulator off). Does anyone use this cab? I’m reading it’s bright, but can be fixed with eq. I play extended range guitars with lower tunings (Deathcore, Blackened Death, and Grindcore mostly).

Hi all! I have a QC mini coming soon and I would like to find a "deck saver" style cover for it like the one I have for the full sized QC unit. Most of what I can find online only protects the touch screen on the mini, but I can't find anything that covers all 4 buttons and gives a little air between the cover and the screen. The deck saver on the full sized QC helps fill out some of the extra space in my gig bag (Temple solo 18) and makes the bag a lot easier to carry, and I was hoping to find something like that for the mini too (will be using the same style board for it). If this doesn't exist yet, what kind of protection are you using on your QC mini?

Used to play with a nano cortex, required external boost pedal to cut through band mix live:

Took my new mini quad cortex to a practice jam yesterday, and the volume just barely cuts through the band mix without the external boost pedal. 3 piece band that plays metal/hardcore so we get loud….but I was really hoping the mini quad would’ve been good enough to not require the external boost.

Anyone have any suggestions? I’ve already maxed out input gain/output volume/preamps volume, and have EQ dialed in to push the mids so it cuts through the mix easy. It’s just the volume issue…I just need like another 5db to be right there with the bass/drums but anymore increases to the I/O settings is going to cause clipping

And no I don’t play through a PA. Run into the fx return of a cheap tube amp to get tubes to push the signal through a passive speaker.

My only idea right now is to create a stereo split signal where one of the outputs also has a IR cab block that I would feed into my frfr cab, achieving stereo with technically 2 diff speaker cabs. But holy fuck that’s inconvenient

Can anyone recommend any youtube channels or videos for the QC Mini? I'm putting together a QC rig to run split signal to a Cab and FOH. Really wanna make sure I understand setting up scenes, general tone shaping/leveling, and configuring a midi footswitch. I've watched some vids already but some seem to differing regarding level setting the scene presets. Any recommendations or pointers would be greatly appreciated!

I’ve been playing guitar for about 2 months, and Korn’s “Right Now” is the first song I’ve learned all the way through. This recording has two separate guitar takes through Archetype: Petrucci X. I’m trying to get a heavier, dirtier, less glassy/twangy tone. I also tried Neural DSP Gojira, but I didn't like how it sounded with this guitar at all.

What would you adjust digitally to achieve that? I’d especially appreciate advice that works with single-coil pickups. I’m still learning, so feedback on the playing is welcome too. I'm using cheap SSS stratocaster, I know i know, it's bad, especially for korn , very bad haha. I told myself I won't buy any other guitar until I nail at least 15 songs, so please bear with me 💫

i'm attaching the audio file in form of mp4 file, be gentle :D
