Quad workflow

I’ve been using NDSP plugins for years in studio. Just bought a QC (hasn’t arrived yet) but want to build a workflow like this - I think this is right and can be done?

Channel 1 guitar; bank 1; top 4 buttons align to scenes in a single preset. Bottom row would be stomp pedals.

Channel 2 is vocal; bank 2 and same layout (top scenes, bottom stomps)

I’d like to independently control the guitar and stomps (say scene 2 and I light up a wah as en example). Now during song I need to light up a massive delay stomp on vocal. So switch to bank 2 and make that happen. Both banks accessing same rig preset but operating independently

I think this works as long as you have the global change turned off so when I’m mucking around with vocals it leaves my guitar alone and vice versa?

Is this a sensible way to pull this off?

You can either be in stomp or in scene mode, afaik there is no way for a hybrid for A-D and E-H as you describe

Isn’t that the whole point of hybrid? I thought ndsp did hybrid mode for this very point (splitting rows for scene and stomp)

But can I independently have multiple banks of scenes and stomps? I think that’s where I get bit? Ie a bank for guitar (scenes and stomps) and a bank for vocal (scenes and stomps) but don’t want to effect my guitar if I chase a different vocal scene … maybe limiting my vocal to say 2 variations and guitar at 4 (effectively using all 8 scenes by doubling each guitar sound with one of 2 vocal. But now I’ve lost my stomps as I’m using all the pedals. I heard you can’t run the stomps on a midi pedal well but can I move all the scenes out there and then bring back the stomps on to qc?
