QuotaFX1.3 / PERFORMANCE EXPANDED48 effects. Two ways to play.
Catch a loop. Bend the tape. Stack a handful of effects and ride the whole thing into somewhere new.
QuotaFX 1.3 pairs the focused SP Mode with Chomp Mode’s full-box finger sliders. One effect library, shaped around your performance.
Same library. Different instincts.
The hardware-style workflow: one selected effect, six consistent CTRL macros, and sixteen assignable favorites. Reach the complete library through MFX pages and perform with Select, Toggle or Hold pads.
A simultaneous multi-effect engine with 48 assignable positions. Each complete tile is a finger or mouse ride. Combine effects, HOLD a gesture, and tune how several parameters move together.
New in 1.3
Original effects built for movement, rhythm and the moment between sections.
Ride captured audio through reverse, a complete stop, normal speed and double speed. Turn a transition into something you can play.
Catch the audio just before a hit and send it into a repeat. Let the incoming rhythm help shape the gesture.
Move resonant bands through the spectrum, then wrap them around again. A different kind of sweep to ride into a new section.
Shift the balance between a sound’s attack and its body. Push the hit forward or reshape what hangs behind it.
Build your workspace
Tune
Assign any effect to any position. Move or swap complete positions, map up to four parameters to a ride, set From and To endpoints, and choose Linear, Fine, Punch, Smooth, Log or stepped response.

Tune → Setups
Save named Chomp setups, load them in another instance or host on the same device, and export a .quotafxsetup file to take them elsewhere. Choose an optional default for new instances. Your existing saved sessions still restore their own state.
A performance instrument in your pocket
Both modes, the complete 48-effect library and the same tuning controls travel with you. Rotate to landscape for a wider workspace, or keep a smaller set of rides under your thumb.
QuotaFX for iPhone & iPadQuotaFX 1.3 and COMPA launch together September 9, 2026.
Hear it for yourself
Try the effect library below, then take the native SP and Chomp performance surfaces into your session. The browser demo has its own compact controls.
Not a recreation — every one of the 48 effects here is the actual plugin C++, compiled to WebAssembly and running live on the station. QuotaFX 1.3's 48-effect library, including Shuttle, Reflex, Wrap Filter and Contour.

A few useful details
SP Mode runs one selected effect through six consistent CTRL macros and sixteen assignable favorites. Chomp Mode has 48 assignable performance positions that can process several effects simultaneously, in visible order. Both draw from the same 48-effect library.
On macOS: AU, VST3 and standalone. On Windows: VST3 and standalone. On iPhone and iPad: AUv3 and standalone. Load the AUv3 in COMPA, AUM, Cubasis, Drambo, Loopy Pro, Logic Pro for iPad, GarageBand or another compatible host.
Yes. A saved host session restores its own Chomp state. For reusable setups, open Tune > Setups to save a named setup in the shared on-device library and load it in another instance or host. Import or export a .quotafxsetup file to move a setup between devices. You can also choose a default for new instances; it does not overwrite existing saved sessions. This is local storage and file sharing, not automatic cloud sync.
No. The SP-404 MKII inspired the hardware-style workflow and several effects, but QuotaFX is an independently developed Rare Data instrument. Its own DSP, Chomp surface and original effects make it its own thing. No Roland hardware is required.
The macOS/Windows desktop license is $59, one time, with a 30-day desktop trial. The iPhone/iPad edition is a separate App Store purchase with a single non-consumable unlock at the price shown by Apple. No subscription. A desktop license does not unlock the iOS edition, or vice versa.
No. Version 1.3 grants one fresh seven-day window only to a genuine, existing QuotaFX trial record on a device that has not already been unlocked or reset. Brand-new production users purchase to unlock processing. Existing purchases remain unlocked.
Yes. The standalone recorder captures the post-effect performance as a 24-bit WAV. Connect a compatible class-compliant USB audio device and choose your input and output. Available monitoring routes depend on the device and operating system; speaker output is not guaranteed for every USB device.
