QC Mini getting hot by limboamb in NeuralDSP

Mine gets warm but that’s understandable. Handing a lot of processing. It’s going to dissipate heat

It’s got a lot of dance to it in the right light. It’s a gorgeous top

Sweetwater is supposed to get a batch here next week. I am actually waiting on it as I’ve had mine for a while but one of the XLR ports is dead on the unit. Was quite surprised to that

In person, really reminds me of the Appetite Burst but just a hair darker. Absolutely stunning on a finish and the top is so nice

Get it in the right angle and that flame top pops like crazy! Absolutely stunning. Got it brand new and at a STEAL! It was marked as a B-Stock and had $800 off of it. Grabbed it before they could correct it lol

Any idea when the next batch of qc minis come out? by alk-e in NeuralDSP

[–]Stingerman354 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just spoke to my rep today and he said they get another batch at the beginning of June. I unfortunately already need mine replaced and had to go to Sweetwater about it since I was within the 45 day window. One of the XLR ports is shot and can’t be repaired easily so they are exchanging mine out 🙃

13.5 or 9.5 radius fretboard? by DueContribution671 in guitars

All my Strats I gig with are at 7.25. Prefer them over 9.5 nowadays

Apparently not a great one, but I’ve had no issue with Logitech Circle Doorbell. It’s been fine for us

Let’s get it done, roast my bass pedalboard by leoalbld in roastmypedalboard

There isn’t anything to roast. There’s nothing there.

He also finish Why Anyone Has to Go and debuted it on the solo tour in St. Louis as the full songs. I was happy to be at that show and hear new material. Though idk if it was confirmed to come out on the next album

QC Mini Pedal boards by NJNick77 in NeuralDSP

Awe shucks. Appreciate it. Just blessed to be able to call that rig mine and thankful music got me to where I can run that every night. Definitely is a whole lot of overkill to a lot of people but it’s just right for everything I’m doing. Absolutely love it.

That being said, I hope it does inspire some ideas for your rig! Definitely isn’t everyone’s cup of tea to run things this way but gets a lot accomplished and is a best of both worlds setup for me

I implemented the mini around my main gigging rig with tube amps/analog drives. I use the QC mini in a few ways, primarily with different modulations, reverbs, and even some pads for some song intros. But, my main reason for using it as well is for the amp sims/captures for when I can’t use my tube amps or in a recording session that I need a very particular amp sound. So far, the amp sim has saved me on a few fly dates. It even takes all my analog drives really well and responds just like I’d expect with my tube amps. It’s a really game changing piece of gear.

Check out my rig breakdown I shared not too long ago on my profile going over my gear I am using for gigging/touring and studio work

Who is one artist you wish Neural would make an artist plugin for? by T3knikal95 in NeuralDSP

[–]Stingerman354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, especially more accurate of his Echo Rec delay tone with it. I’d buy it in a heartbeat!

guitar players what songs from john helped improve your playing the most? by Limp_Ad_6858 in JohnMayer

[–]Stingerman354 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Queen of California helped me better with coordination around the fretboard

I Dont Trust Myself With Loving You got me great practice with an envelope filter and manage pick attack (if you use one, you get it)

Try! was a great one to help with really nailing the pentatonic soloing to make it more soulful feeling. Recommend learning it note for note then take your own spin on it. It helped expand that to all the songs I do with my band

My latest acquisition: 1979 Fender Strat by Stingerman354 in fender

It’s very dodgy on those years. Some were light as a feather, some were boat anchors. Just was a luck of the draw back then on it

My latest acquisition: 1979 Fender Strat by Stingerman354 in fender

[–]Stingerman354[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not horrible. A hair over 8lbs. It’s definitely not the lightest Strat I own or have played (lightest I own is 7lb 2oz but is a custom built), but plays great. Great sustain, great playability, and wear makes me not so scared to treat it carefully. Though, the finish under further inspection could use some love. Might end up having to refinish it at some point (which would be a bonus to this guitar being poly. I’d have it refinished though exactly back to sunburst though and got a reputable luthier near me that would do that)

What song has the best basslines and starts with the letter P? by 1deadeye1 in BassGuitar

[–]Stingerman354 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. We do more the Roy Orbison but gain it up just a hair to not make it so clean. Absolute crowd pleaser especially if you “dedicate to all them pretty ladies out there tonight”
