The presets or patches- whatever they're called- on my Headrush MX5 sucked. Until I finally figured out that if you download a 3rd party IR- they sound great. Even the IRs that it comes with make each patch sound 2-3 times better- why they didn't put them on the patches I have no idea but not a single patch has an IR loaded. You have to do it yourself. Probably because when you loa done, now you have to go adjust the output values and the gain on the IR to suit whatever tone you're looking for- they didn't want to go through that much trouble. I think they felt like if they gave you a good set of FX and an amp/cab sim then you could take it from there and add an IR and adjust everything to taste. I have to admit- once you do so, it sounds almost as good as my tube amp- just barely falls short. And what's lost is more than made up for by all the fx and so forth. When I'm using my amp- yes, the distortion sounds great- but it sounds like raw distortion- I don't know how to add all the fx and make it all work together, the perfect gate, adjust the output of pickups to the ideal position, etc. So, it just sounds raw. But- on this unit- all that is done for you- so it sounds super smooth and refined- like you're in a studio. Imo that more than makes up for the fact that the lower end still sounds sort of grainy- best way I know to put it. If they ever figure out how to handle the low end of distortion on these units- they're going to sound as good or better than any amp.

Is the Cortex expensive? Absolutely. Is it incredibly powerful/versatile and a 'better' investment than having several amps/cabs/pedals? I think so. Musicians today can get so much value out of that one pedal. Sure, it dowsn't have that same nostalgia or subjective 'feel' of analogue pedals/knobs/tweaking different pieces of equipment but when it comes to maximizing the musicianship vs the 'gear head' ratio, the Cortex is miles ahead.

They are still supporting the Quad Cortex, the next thing they're working on which I believe is due to release imminently is the long-awaited desktop editor. I think it's fair to say that the updates and additions arrive few and far between, certainly takes longer than a lot of the community would like. I do think there are some great things in there already and I would never buy something like this based on the promise of what it could be.

I see QC development phase totally opposite. Quad Cortex is still relative new as an platform and they def support and update it. It's true that development has not been the fastest but maybe it's natural for such complex SW platforms like this. In recent years times has been also very challenging to develope totally new platform -> Covid and War of Ukraine (lack of components etc)? So I believe that dev. schedule is not delayed by purpose (like cost reductions in business strategy etc). When looking recent KZitem reviews I kind of feel that nerds in bedroom are mostly pissed of about the "broken promises" while working musicians like these gentlemen here are really utilizing QC effectively in their daily work and even seems to enjoy it very much 🤭. I have a QC and there are already more features than I ever need so I guess I'm a happy user 😎. Go for it 👍
