Setting up your Quad Cortex
CPU Monitor
The CPU Monitor shows you the overall CPU usage of the current
Preset at the top-right corner of the screen. Tap the Grid's
contextual Menu and select CPU Monitor to open it.
IMPORTANT: Bypassing/disabling the blocks doesn't
decrease the CPU consumption.
Optimizing performance
Quad Cortex is a DSP (Digital Signal Processing) unit. Different virtual
device blocks require more DSP power than others. To get the most
out of Quad Cortex, it is important to understand the following:
•
The number of device blocks in a Preset has a great impact on
CPU usage.
•
Rows 1-2 and Rows 3-4 on The Grid utilise different processor
cores. If all of your device blocks are placed in Rows 1 and 2,
you're only using half of Quad Cortex's power. For resource-
hungry Presets, try splitting your blocks across all four rows.
The maximum load is up to 90%. Beyond that, the audio and

operating system performance may be compromised.

usage. EQ, Compressor, Wah, and FX Loop blocks have the
lowest CPU usage.
•
Some devices may use more DSP than others in the same
category. This is especially true with amp devices.
•
Use Scene Mode to change parameters in devices instead of
copying devices and changing their parameters.

the CPU Monitor.
Each block fills up to represent
its influence on the CPU usage.
The Global EQ as well as the
Input Gates are automatically
disabled when a CPU-expensive
Preset is loaded.
