Finaly ordered mine, looking foward to trying this out!

Hey man, really great videos! Helps me a lot to get great tones at the beginning from the QC! 🙏🏻😊

Was fun following along as I made the same adjustments.

Thanks John. I really like the videos you do for the Quad Cortex - I find them very useful and informative. Great playing too, as ever 😊

Thanks for great video re QC. So many choices, but the great cleans you highlight are super. What made this video very instructional was the tone refs. and examples of tones of great quite heavy clean users such as John Mayor, Bonamassa etc. Great job - went and build the same clean chain with 2 amps! Thanks John!

I use since now ukac30 but this amp sounds really good!! :D thanks for all this content John!! It's really healpful

Awesome video, about to get one of these and these tones are great.

I tried this out last night. Very great feel and tone. Bassy and dark stock but that can be worked out (balanced) for the most part

Somehow right away, i could tell this was not coming from a Helix. This sounds so real and very pleasing. The QC rules them all IMO

@PhiLikeFlying Are you liking the Stomp more than the QC? I sold my Stomp a few months ago to try other modellers and now I think I made a mistake 😂

@@RyanKorea Hi. I've gone back to the stomp over a year ago. The QC was staring to annoy me if im honest. But the Stomp has been updated twice and now it sounds absolutely amazing!! On par if not better than the QC IMO. Line 6 has upped their game big time and im so glad i went back - and i plan on staying :))

Very cool. Thanks for sharing. The presets seem very much impacted by the pickups. I play a Music Man JP-25 and the pickups seem to be pretty hot and middy. Finding great distorting amps is easy, but getting clean ones to work with magnetic pickups of this guitar is more difficult. The acoustic sounds I get are amazing, but the only way to get cleaner electric tones without them sounding honky is with the pickup selector in the middle with the coils tapped, which can sound Tele-like. This the amps/cab in this preset might work really well for that, so thanks again.

Man, absolutely awesome playing! Definitely considering picking up a QC for myself here soon.

I think the Morgan50 is one of the best "pedal platform" amps in the QC period

man that first solo was fire!

As a clean amp user, thanks for this

Hello John, First of all, thank you for all your good videos, I've learned a lot, so thank you again 🙂...... What I write now is NOT a criticism, it is MY perception of Your sound. Whether it's a Line6 Helix or quad Cortex or other type of Amp Modeler/Multi-FX Processor you'll always sound like you, that's a great thing keep up the good work and thanks again. Best Regards

I've tried all these clean amps John, but keep going back to the Lone Star. It just has a character the others seem to be missing. I do keep the master high to avoid preamp clipping. The others all sound good and are quite flexible. But they seem to be missing some magic that's in the Lone Star. It could of course be the particular amps they used in the deep capture process.

Nice player and great video too

Great stuff. I don’t own a QC but it looks awesome… apart from not having a built in power supply 🤦🏼‍♂

Great Job as usual, in an earlier video you asked for suggestions, Would love to see Nd hear Jeff Beck fro Blow by Blow

I as general observation, I noticed that to turn off a block, you select it and turn it off from the edit screen. You can also double tap the block to toggle it on and off.

Great sound! Killer playing! Thank you! What is your signal chain?

Great demo, mate! The SW amp was based on a Dumble Modified Super Reverb. Figured I’d drop that note in for anyone wanting more specifics. Cheers!

This video is still useful….. 1 year later - Thanks again. What about a Mayer ´´ slow dancing in a burning room ´´ build in the QC 🙏🏻

That intro! I need you to explain your thought process of that intro. I love your playing. What do you think are the biggest factors in your style? Like, Jazz theory of following the chord tones, etc. What music theory concepts do you apply most often?

Best amp/cab combo for Jazz would be a good video! At the moment I'm using the Princeton for my archtop

Surprised i liked the Uber clean.

Thanks John, however my question as a new QC owner, how do I get a crystal clean tone that’s loud with no hair?

I was struggling to get a clean sound. The only one that worked for me was the Bogner Uber Clean.

I think the Bogna Uber clean channel is the best clean amp.

Hey John, what would you recommend for drum loops and progressions to practice and jam along to? Free or cheap preferably

May I ask John, if you're using hx effects, quad cortex and helix what would be your go to amp aside from using pa system.

John, if you only recorded at home and didn’t do any live or session work would you bother with modellers or just use plugins?

Great

How do you record the audio from QC for a video? Do you sync later video + audio track or can you record directly into the phone?

Love your tones John! I tried to create the exact preset but it doesn’t sound the same as yours. Is it because of the amp that I’m using? The output goes to my Roland jazz 120 amp.

@witewolfmusic1654

Well… he’s probably going from his unit direct to his daw. If you go to a Roland you have the Roland tones… even flat. It’s not really just a power amp. Also the speakers have a color to them. Also the type of guitar you play through the unit is a factor. Lots of factors.

How u get so much volume at only half "big knob" volume ;-?

Did you purchase S-Gear?

The hp too. With tonestack dropped proportionally. Ops... edit...i see now you've used the hp..sorry
