How To Create A GREAT Tone! | Quad Cortex

[@JimsMusicJourney]

Always appreciated your videos when I was a Helix user. Looking forward to more QC videos.

[@JasonSadites]

Thank you and really glad you enjoy! Much more to come 🙂

[@petereverett4286]

Thanks Jason. I’m new to QC and was recommended to you my a fellow QC user and the template is going to be super helpful as a jump off point. Great and clear presentation style and now about to watch your other vids. Thanks again from the UK.

[@JasonSadites]

My pleasure and glad you enjoyed :-) Hope the videos are helpful!

9:03 - this also demonstrates how the comp at the end helps bring out the "rolled off" volume (at the guitar) without the big drop off in the overall mix.

YESSSSS I Freaking loved your helix videos. Haven’t watched in a while, cause I sold my helix for a QC. Glad to be back!

[@stephenmestrada]

Make a video about effects loops and setting the levels properly and where in the chain it should go! Btw great video! Thanks for sharing this freely with everyone.

[@umidkwattoput]

Can't wait for your high gain model amps on the QC! I enjoyed the PV model preset you had for the helix!

[@JasonSadites]

Definitely looking forward to digging into some of those 🤘 Glad you enjoyed the PV tones for Helix 🙂

[@JenniferBatten1]

Thanks!

[@JasonSadites]

Thank you so much Jennifer :-) I hope touring is going well!!

I got a QC a few days before a gig and didn’t have much time to learn how to use it but this preset helped carry me through the whole gig! I barely tweaked with any of the settings but got tons of compliments on my tone. Thanks for making such a helpful vid!

[@JasonSadites]

That is amazing news and so glad it was helpful and worked so well for you 😊

[@shellsjoint]

Jason, I’m your biggest fan!! This is such a great video and it really explains a lot of stuff for us. Thank you. I love my QC!! It’s the new Helix! lol..

[@JasonSadites]

Hey Sheldon, thanks so much for the kind words and really glad you enjoyed :-) Hope you and the family are doing well!

[@EricDelhauer]

Hi Jason, thanks for another great video! I'd love to get your take on handling presets with more complex routing. For example, I use my QC alongside a Powerstage 200 on a pedalboard to feed my 2x12, but I also run XLR outs with a cab block to front of house for monitors/PA mix. I'm curious to see how you might handle something like that! (I'm also interested in how you might gain-stage within such a preset to avoid clipping the power amp while keeping as loud/clear a signal as possible for FOH.) Hopefully this is something you'd be interested in exploring. 😁

Really nice, thank you!

[@AndyDacoulis]

Great tips here! Thank you!

[@JasonSadites]

Thanks so much Andy :-)

Can you make a video about the I/O menu and using the QC with external effects. I’ve been trying to integrate my pedal board into my QC presets but I’ve noticed that I loose signal when the signal comes back in from the board. I’ve been trying to make my presets as loud as I can with out clipping but If I do that I have no headroom to do anything like boosting with any of my physical pedals.

[@Fenderlin6]

I have a question, How can i raise the output without have it clipping? For example, my Helix and my Fractal FM3 i have my overall volume at 12 clock wise and that tje way i use it Live but for some reason my Quad to compensate the same volume i have to raise it almost 80%, can you help me with that

[@ax3l_d994]

Sorry bro to hijack this video with a tonex question, yuo said we should put the input trim at 0. Is it the same for humbuckers and single coils? Great videos, keep them coming

[@JasonSadites]

No worries at all! I never change my input trim when changing guitars. My Tonex captures are designed to sound exactly as I captured them with Tonex Pedal input trim is set to -3.0 dB or on Tonex software with your recording interface instrument input set to 11 dBu of headroom. Hope that helps :-)

[@witja1983]

why master vol is on 100%

[@vedder10]

I know this is not about the ToneX but I've noticed that tons of people have requested a tuner for the ToneX pedal. I may be extremely late to discovering this but if you hold down the "C" stomp switch you see that it has a very effective tuner built in.

[@JasonSadites]

Yes that feature was added in a recent update :-)
