I know it’s a long shot, but as someone who loves using the plugins to record and having the ability to tweak all the parameters later when mixing, then putting the finished album preset on the Quad, it would be amazing to be able to mix and match all the devices, like on the Quad, mix to taste later, and then have it saved back as a preset when I’m out.

I know line 6 has this and its the only thing I wish I had on the neural end.

This sounds like either of two scenarios, or both:

1. Using Cortex Control to create presets while a Quad Cortex device is not connected

2. A “plug-in version” of the QC, with all of the devices loaded into it and available for use in a DAW as a VST3 / AU / AAX

In both cases, there are existing requests:

> [@Cortex Control offline mode (without Quadcortex)](https://unity.neuraldsp.com/t/cortex-control-offline-mode-without-quadcortex/12156):
>
> I think that being able to work with Cortex Control offline can be very useful. I mean without having the quad cortex plugged in.

> [@Plugin Version of QC](https://unity.neuraldsp.com/t/plugin-version-of-qc/3924):
>
> Create plugin version of QC like Helix Native, allowing for reamping in the DAW. I love the ability to record dry tracks and use Helix Native to tweak. It’s much more convenient than USB reamping when working to fit a track into a mix.
