Option to disable preset up/down footswitches in Stomp / Scene Mode

[coaster831]

When performing, nothing is worse for me and the audience than the the mid-song dropout when I accidentally hit the preset up/down switches. Could there be a system option to disable these switches when in Scene or Stomp mode?

I live in fear of this. So much so, that for our gig on Saturday, I have the same preset copied 8 times (full bank) and I am starting in the middle of the bank. That way, if I accidentally press up or down, it will briefly drop out but I can quickly recover. To enable this, I had to abandon my normal approach of having 1 preset per song and simplify down to a single preset to cover a 16-song setlist.

I have never accidentally pressed the up/down buttons in a live gig, but it has happened during band practice many times. If I’m not paying attention, I’m unsure whether to go up or down to get back to where I was. To make things worse, the up/down switches move in the opposite direction of what many of us (myself included) would expect.

My vote would be to have three selections for this system setting: (1) Normal; (2) Reversed; (3) Disabled.

100% this! Let’s please have three selections for this system setting: (1) Normal; (2) Reversed; (3) Disabled.

I have duplicate patches, too (though not a whole bank, that is dedicated!). The worst part for me is the dropout, because it also cuts out my vocal – very noticeable.

I’m down with your proposed 3 selections! @carl , please upvote this at the top to see if we can get some traction. Thanks!

So, we do already have a couple of requests which effectively cover what you’re asking.

Locking a preset:

Quad Cortex "Lock Preset" function

I would love to be able to select “Lock Preset” by holding down the two lower right hand buttons. (Like we have to do currently to cycle preset>scene>stomp but HOLD them both.) Then the “up” arrow button would toggle between scene or stomp mode and the “down” arrow button would toggle the gig view. WAAAY BETTER because right now, I have to swipe up with my finger to get to gig view, and then hit "close with my finger to get out of gig view. Not exactly “gig friendly!” This would make a world o…

Here’s the main request for reversing the up/down switch order, with a relatively high number of votes:

Feature Request - Up/Down Footswitches And The List Of Presets

I’ve been using the QC for well over a year now. I and truly pleased with it. In fact I’m very happy whenever I get to use it. I have one suggestion, that I think would help navigation for me. I realize my brain might be wired a little differently than most, so feel free to chime in on this and tell me I’m crazy. When I tap the top of the screen to open the list of presets, and I hit the up footswtich, it selects the preset that is the next one DOWN on the list. This drives me CRAZY. When I vi…

Thanks for digging these up, I searched and found the thread reversing switch order but not the lock preset one. Feel free to lock / combine this topic with the others if you think it’s covered.
