Allowing for multiple split and merges on one set of lines

Quad Cortex Feature Requests
1

I am a bassist and have been LOVING the unit so far. Something that could be great for routing and using DI to FOH and live cabs, or allowing for more flexible routing or parallel paths would be:

Allowing more than one set of split and merge within the same 2 lines or “Side” of the processing. For example, you’d be able to split the signal after the input and run the 2nd row parallel via A/B, crossover, or balance; then merge after say block 3. Then on the same set of two rows, split after block 4 and merge again after block 7.

This would likely be a massive change so I understand if it doesn’t happen, but it would end up making the rws more like a grid akin to what Fractal has done where you can utilize more blocks in different routings.

Voted! This would be massively good!

+1! This has to be the most useful feature requested yet. If this is not possible i would like to know why.

4

+1, would be awesome!

Yess. Having come from AXE FX world, being able to split the route on multiple points and returning back gives a lot of opportunities about using some effects in parallel Mode and grouped way. For ex. if I want to have a chorus and compressor only after my parallel placed delay, I would use split just for those 3 block as in AXE. But a few blocks later, I could make another split for another purpose. AXE was extremely free on this issue. We hope to see changes in QC as well in time.

pushing this topic to the top to maybe get more people on board.

This feature would be a game changer. It think it should be possible as it utilizes only the existing cpu cores of the quad cortex.

8

Adding a split/merge adds additional latency to the QC. A lot more than you’d think. Probably wouldn’t want to have that tbh

9

It should be optional for people who want it (myself included).

In my opinion, anyone voting for this multiple split and merge feature request should also be voting for this phase alignment request:

Splitting and merging, even just once in your overall signal chain, may cause phase issues. Imagine what can happen if you can split/merge multiple times on the same set of lines.

Just received my Quad Cortex Mini and I’m kind of disappointed this is not possible yet. I need it to make a split & grit bass distortion sound and then split prior to IR for the stage amp and then with the IR for front of house and my IEM.

Hey Toilette, here is a workaround so that you can send your signal before the cab/IR without needing to use two rows: Disable cab IRs on a selected output - #67 by felher.c . You can even add time-based effects to both sends. Hope this works for you…

Additionally, you can do a parallel distortion split-and-merge thing on Rows 1 & 2, send that Row 3, then split that out to power amp (no IR, Row 3) and FOH (w/ IR or cab sim, Row 4). Not elegant, but possible.
