I’m experiencing an issue with my Quad Cortex where the CPU limits my processing, which automatically disables my Global EQ. I am running a preset with parallel amps, and I need help restructuring the signal chain across multiple rows to balance the DSP load without changing my tone or the order of my effects, it would be of great help if anyone has a way to solve this. Thank you very much!
Hello and welcome,
The QC, having four processing cores, splits the processing as two cores for the top two rows on the grid, and two cores for the bottom two rows on the grid.
The global EQ and input gate are processed on the same cores as the top two rows. If you fill up those top rows with too many blocks (or too much CPU used there), then CorOS will disable the ability to use global EQ.
In your example, looks like you may be able to shift your parallel amp + cab setup to the bottom two rows. This may free up enough CPU in the top rows for the global EQ to be available.
