However, I would appriciate it if you recorded my "riff" as requested, and sent me wav file so I can compare it on my own computer (with my profile)
Thanks in advance

Display MoreDude, your tweak is a obvious improvement.
I would probably keep the "pick setting" because I usually play really high speed picking like 180bpm 16th palm muted speed metal riffs, but overall I like yours.
I wouldn't use any reverb on the reverb tracks tho, etiher. But I will try your settings out later
My crappy monitor speakers COULD be a reason I have a hard time getting a good sound... I tried my girlfriends studio monitors (much better!) and I heard the sounds in a compeltly different way.
Also, I might keep Tube Shape to 0.0 also. I dont like the "noisy tail" I get with Tube shape.
But yeah, the Definition might be dialed down a bit, I used to have it at 10 all the time, but that just thins things out, I guess!
I use krk rookit rp6 g3 active monitors. Good enough for me and the price for second hand used ones is nearly 280€ here in Germany.
I bought them half a year old with warranty on ebay for 250€ incl. monitor stands. Cool price.
I recorded with a slow level of playing because id like to hear the definition between picking.
I think the fast run in part 3 of the tune shows that there is definition enough and the notes sound clear
Anyway, i think the biggest thing with your noise issue is your booster at level 5 in front of the amp. When
i use a booster in stomp a,b,c or d, its not higher than 2, and when i only want that the main gets boosted without any soundchanging, i put it in stomp x after the amp, because a booster in front of the amp changes the sound.

Ceck your email. Wave file is to download via wetransfer

Thanks a lot! BUt it sounds like the file you sent is in stereo or something?
I always record with mono signal only
BUT OTHER THAN THAT STILL THE SAME RESULT AS WHEN SINMIX REAMPED MY SIGNAL (another profile tho)!
Yours have NO digital ugly fizz, my still has digital ugly fizz. Both you and Sinmix had more bottom end too. Sounds more realistic overall.
So, Sinmix doesn't have it, you doesn't have it, then WHY DOES MY KEMPER PRODUCE IT?!
Why does my Kemper sound thin and digitally harsch?!
Once again, it seems like I AM RIGHT about my KEmper behaving weird
I have seen people say that "all SPDIF sound the same, it's just digital"
But since I have so much issues with getting my tone well, I started thinking maybe it's my soundcard?!
SinMix reamped my signal with his exact same profile, and mine sounded thin and harsch, his sounded full and realistic.
Now a guy recorded a riff with my own profile, and my sounded thin and harsch, and his sounded full and realistic.
Somethign is WRONG at my setup. I cannot understand WHAT... I never mess around with output EQ section or anything like that
I have a mulitrack Tascam US-1641 and simple US-144MKII and while they are good for micing drums, vocals, guitar cabs and whatever, maybe the SPDIF input is crap?
Have you tried another input? Is it also thin and harsh when you plug your headphones or monitors directly into the Kemper? If it does, your soundcard doesn't seem to be the problem.

check your mail again. I have send the rig with another cab.
And also check out that you havent locked a stomp or whatever.
If nothing helps you out, open a tiket vir kpa main website. After receiving an answer, send a backup file to the kpa guys. They are very helpful.
Yes SPDIF and XLR connection sounds exactly the same (even the same visual wavelengths, except the XLR has a little more latency)
So eh... yeah that counts the SPDIF out tehn I guess
Thanks. but Hmmm where do I find "ticket"? There's nothing like that in Support section...

Go to support and to contact
Aha
Sorry, I'm very "literal" haha. I looked for "ticket" and couldn't find it so thanks for claryfing
Plus, IIRC, you said it sounded crap through headphones too, Cederick.
Bummer man. Don't worry; we'll eventually get to the bottom of it.
Have you by any chance opened a support ticket?

I was going to mention this when I saw your post about the tube setting, Cederick, but figured I'd wait to see what happened with that first.
IMHO, and I seem to be "allergic" to it more than most here, high definition settings are a ticket to Harsh Hell™. For me, lowering definition is the Mo Mojo™ trick. I do it before I even reach for the stack EQ if a profile sounds harsh or too edgy.
I've no doubt that lowering this setting would help many of those crappy-sounding profiles you posted sound better, but due to the results of the comparisons you made with Frank and SinMix, I don't think it's the smoking gun you're looking for.
Sounds like a reset might be in order. You might have messed up outputs.

Let me make a metaphoreIn a blind test, two guys should try the same guitar.
That's pretty obvious. So you hand it from one guy to the next.
Thats how I see it. My uploaded profile is "that guitar". It's not any different on your machine, than on mine, right?
Does profiles change when downloaded? If not, then I see no reason to not try out my profile
Sorry this goes on forever
Hey, no worries mate. I've understood all along where you're coming from.
To use your analogy, it's like one participant handing the box of pills to be tested to the other participant/s. It'd be better if the overseer of the test, someone who had no possible vested interest in the outcome, handed out the material. See the difference? Nobody would be in any doubt that the goods to be tested had been altered or tampered with in any way, purposefully or not. The goods would then justifiably constitute a known quantity. The only way to ensure this in our situation is to use separately-downloaded, fresh Factory presets.
It's a subtle distinction, which I'm sure you can see, but blow me down if it isn't part of the scientific method.
Let's see what the Kemper Team™ can come up with now that you've created a ticket. They're darn good, those blokes.

We may have different taste in amp sounds tho.
I like mid-trebly guitar sounds, but that doesn't mean I like that digital fizzy thing that's going on in my Kemper.
This is sort of the sound I'm going for.
Sounds like a reset might be in order. You might have messed up outputs.
No, I actually resetted the factory default a few days ago.
And I NEVER tweak the output EQ, "pure cab" or anything like that, I think I even stated that in the OP.

Well I see where you're going but ok I will get some profile from rig manager but I honestly still dont see the point in why one cannot use my profile

Yeah it sounds the same in whatever way I'm using it.
Yep I've mailed the Kemper support and hope they respond soon!
