Another reason why these sorts of things don't appeal to me - while I fully appreciate that it's a me issue - option paralysis. WTF is a ham fisted pub playing weekend warrior like me gonna do with all these cab sims?

 

I'm better off out of it.

I don’t think you’re alone with this, I can barely choose a can of beans in the supermarket if there’s more than one option. 6 mic options, 6 placement options and 20+ cabs… I’d be there all day!

They seem to be selling like hot cakes....... Most suppliers are waiting for new stock. Last night Gear4music had 5 in stock..... all gone by late this morning!

is this really just a cut down Quad Cortex for bass players ?

 

I'm just wondering if it's worth it along with an already purchased QC ?

If you want a smaller footprint, you're a fan of Darkglass pedals, and you don't mind having a single FX loop and fewer switches, it has the potential to be a pretty compelling alternative. If Darkglass can broaden the range of amps and effects, get Bluetooth working and maybe provide a user-friendly capture method, it would be an easy sell for bassists. I'm glad it's here as it might get Neural to up their game a little.

It's a cool-looking unit with a bunch of potential but I'd suggest hanging around and seeing what it looks like after the next patch or two.

I’d say probably not worth having both, if you find your QC is under utilised (you hardly use the 8 footswitches, or you constantly wish it was smaller, or it’s just doing a little bit of processing on an already busy board) then it could be a good option to downsize the footprint.

 

Else you’ve got two wildly different Capture ecosystems and workflows, personally I’d find that quite annoying but YMMV.

Welcome to our world where the likes if Helix stomp etc only give token updates to bass, (although i love my stomp)

FOMO is strong with this one, but i echo that running both wouldn't really be a great solution to get behind.  Cutting down to it could be anytime option, but don't know what the used market is like for QCs.  I'd want a good chunk of money spare at the end of it.

QC’s go for £1100 - £1200 I find second hand, the sweetener is how much extra stuff can you get for that like a DC7 and Solo 18. But you will get the occasional £900 bargain.

 

I ended up going open box because I wanted the warranty on something so expensive and the ability to send it back but some of the deals I saw were near new price.

 

If you can list in a dip in supply when Thomann and Guitar Guitar don’t have any in stock you can really ask a premium.

 

I’m looking forward to these Anagrams cropping up for 600-700, that’s a real sweet spot for something so powerful.
