CorOS 3.2.0 and Cortex Control 1.3.0 are now available!

I think it’s ok +7 - 7 and then - 2 I think :grin:

Agreed. I specifically chose Archetype Nolly for its PCOM promises; this update has delivered in spades for me. I think you’ll be stoked with how the other plugins have been ported, if my experience with Nolly is any indication.

Let the chord ring for a second and listen for the glitches. Really wish they would add the polyphonic pitch shifter they originally promised and advertised on their site

The last part is fairly slow and ringing out notes… and I’ll just say it again it works pretty good for me not sure why it’s so bad on your end, so maybe there’s more to it :person_shrugging:

I’m afraid they may have quietly sent the Poly pitch-shifter off to oblivion- it’s not listed on the “Announced but not released” list anymore. They seem to be gradually adding things from this list and that fact that it’s still available online is promising, but unfortunately I’d assume anything that disappears from that list probably isn’t going to happen. Poly pitch-shift might be beyond their reach?

I can hear the glitches clear as day in your example. It’s a strange warbly/slightly jumpy thing that happens with the chords. I can even hear it in the stuff that slightly more single note based as well. Hopefully they can update the algorithm. It’s because Transpose is monophonic.

Neural kinda hides the glitches of it in the plugin demos because it’s a lot of super distorted djent wannabe riffs that they use for the marketing.

They hide it you think… :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

I mean, yeah. Making sure their demos sounds the best they can and don’t highlight strange elements of the blocks that might exist

Is there a glitch-free pitch shifter/ transpose on the market?

Poly Capo on Helix is really good for what it is. Digitech Drop is pretty good (same designers). It’s pretty night and day different with Poly Capo since it’s also has an EQ function that keeps the pitch shifting from darkening the tone too much. Still surprised Neural can have a polyphonic octaver, but cannot figure out a polyphonic pitch shifter when other companies have.

Another one is Polychrome Hypertune. Wish it wasn’t just a plugin. But yeah, they absolutely exist.

Try PolychromeDSP pitch shifter,.

They even did a comparison between Ndsp plug-in transpose and their pitch shifting plug-in (guess who wins hands down ?)

Yeah it’s wild how much better it is. Even Ola England shows how glitchy transpose is in one of his videos. I appreciate him being honest about the plugin and not just hyping it up like other YouTubers.

I wish more gear YouTubers were actually honest about gear instead of jumping on a bandwagon for any company. I understand they want to keep having companies send them gear, but stuff can’t improve unless people are honest about it in reviews. It’s caused lot of products to be improved when people were really critically demoing stuff.

Re YouTube reviews:
You can be certain if the personality received the pedal before launch day and videos are up within a few hours of announcements… you are watching marketing not an honest review.

I don’t bother with YouTube for reviews. The forums are generally where to find the most honest and candid takes, imo.

Yeah, it’s crazy how much certain reviewers will just hype up any product they can for attention. Honestly tired of the glorified ads these people have been making. Its cool anyone can make a video and upload it, but honestly it makes it so people think people with little to no audio, songwriting, or touring experience have an expert opinion on this stuff

i downloaded hypertune to test it out and compare and so i made short recording of both the hypertune and the QC transpose….i wonder who can tell which is which, I think you might be surprised :person_shrugging:

both -6 and personally neither are perfect they both glitch maybe one of them a little more on certain chords…

Just to note not actually trying to prove anything barn I use the transpose a lot for baritone country sound and has been perfect for it, but wanted to check out hypertune cause if it’s really that much better for recording it would be worth purchasing that’s my reason but decided to throw this up to see what everyone thinks and if they can tell….and that might push me one way or the other.

But I do have a preference in the sound of one over the other

2 for the glitch and imprecision in the definition of the notes, and the result is very similar when I sometimes try to use the quad cortex effect, but I have never used hypertune, but I believe it must be much better, so to my ears it is number 1

Still not tried the transpose a lot and didn’t tried other than the kemper one (glitchy)

The first exemple is darker with some kind of dirty mp3 chorus that i here at 0.10 and the second crisper with more metallic resonances.

In those exemples the 1 feels more glitchy in the first 10 seconds and the second have more high end noises and fizz etc…

@Pixelman The hypertune is a plugin so trying to get exact sound vs QC… it wasn’t very scientific but I don’t play guitar that way I plug in and go so the base sounds were as close as possible…. And yes the first one is more glitchy in the 1st part I noticed too…

You feel no1 is the hypertune thanx for commenting on it… appreciate your input. I hear more glitching in no1 vs 2 especially at the start.

Did you load the plugin in a DAW and then route the signal after hypertune to the QC?
