I'll start with one of the tracks from our album
It SHOULD sound crushing.
We have found some superb Mesa Boogie DR2 profiles from SinMix, Josh Middleton, ChopTones etc
When we hear other recordings using those profiles they sound stunning.
When we hear the tones via the Kemper headphones they also sound stunning.
But when we hear them via SPDIF via the Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 they sound very poor (low volume, loss of quality, lower gain etc) - Honestly it sounds like a cheap boss pedal
Have also heard analog sounds as well and it has the same issue before anyone assumes this is a SPDIF issue.
We are experienced Kemper users and we've recorded an album using Cubase 7.5
W've been re-amping for over a year. We've never been totally happy with the sound.
But we never really worried as we knew we could re-amp again at the end of the album.
We've read the amazing re-amp guide on here and don't have any issues with the process.
I know the sound has to be converted to analog for the focusrite headphones but the difference is so great it cannot be anything to do with that.
If the sounds from Kemper are like we are getting nobody would buy it. But we know from other vids using same profiles that it can sound superb.
When we turn the volume up it just sounds like the same poor quality but louder.
So we are open to suggestions as to what we are doing wrong. Has to be a schoolboy error on our part. Any help is much appreciated
