From NDSP:
â We are aiming to open the public beta of Cortex Control (the Quad Cortex desktop controller) on Monday October 9th, and are doing our very best to release it before then. We will share all the details about how you participate in the open beta closer to the launch, but there will not be any restrictions.â

Having an editor will be cool, but, Iâm mostly looking forward to not seeing anymore rants about the QC not having one!

Great news but I will be waiting for the full release. I imagine itâll be a bit buggy considering how long it took them to produce 
Did you put any thought into this statement, or were you just desperate to spew some negativity?
That makes no sense whatsoever.
It makes plenty of sense given Neural DSPâs track record. Iâm enjoying my QC but I only bought it 3 months ago. The real people that are feeling negative are the ones who bought it at launch. I shouldâve known better than to share an opinion in a forum. Iâm sure youâre on TGP with all the other babies who get triggered by an opinion outside your own. 
What part of âspending lots of time developingâ says to you âit will be full of bugsâ? And what track record? Is your QC unstable? Are their plugins?

Development time has absolutely nothing to do with the state a software is in when itâs released. If any correlation exists than maybe a short development time could mean that a software wasnât thoroughly tested before release.
The whole point of there being an open beta is we expect there to be some bugs, and having a lot of users testing it will be the quickest way for us to find and fix them all, while still delivering an experience that is very usable & enjoyable for most people.

Ok fair enough. Personally I donât attempt using Beta version of anything. Even when I owned an AxeFx Iâd wait for the full release. All in all Iâm excited for the editor as it is my preferred way of building presets.
Why are you quoting things I didnât say? I said a bit buggy.
âThe harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.â
Sure, OK, thatâs the important thing to latch onto.
Youâre welcome to share opinions here. When youâre ready, please feel free to. Spout off dumb misunderstandings, however, and youâre probably going to see some pushback. Interesting that itâs happened to you elsewhere tooâŚ

I did share my opinion and youâre telling me my opinion was âdumb misunderstandings.â Which btw makes no sense. What was misunderstood? Youâre also assuming this has happened âelsewhere.â If youâre referring to TGP then I never post there but I do skim through to find information I need. Iâll find my QC info somewhere else from now on. Iâll see myself out.

Although QC updates (and this programming app) have been slow to arrive, I appreciate that they have been relatively bug-free when they do. I assume that is, at least partially, due to NDSP spending the time to fully test the software before release. Iâll take that over something with pile of issues. I believe the old âgift horseâ adage applies here.
Iâm not a âpower userâ of the QCâI donât use MIDI or expression pedals with it, I rely on external pedals and IRs, and I run everything in mono rather than stereo.
That said, I think Cortex Control will still prove useful to me, and Iâm looking forward to trying the beta. I donât expect to run into bugs, but who knows.
Thatâs not an opinion, thatâs a guess. And itâs a dumb misunderstanding of what a longer development cycle might result in.
NDSP doesnât have a track record of buggy software.
You donât have to see yourself out, but you canât just come in here and make shit up. All of us are closely following what NDSP are doing, and regularly use their productsâŚ

I find the QC itself to be unreliable. I had a unit that died within a month or so. Then toured with a band that had a QC of their own and it refused to boot up one day. Just had the flashing blue lights.
For touring I trust this less than Helix or my own tube heads. I do think QC is easier to use/gets better sounds quickly than other modelers (I came from Helix). But didnât ever have an issue with Helix with pretty heavy touring use. Just didnât like the sounds or available DSP as much
