Hideous Screech all of a sudden.

Loha101 · July 14, 2024 at 6:31 PM

Hey guys!

I've been using my Kemper with a Marshall 2x12 and all of a sudden there's this horrendous screech, not like usual feedback, whenever I put a mild amount of distortion on. No idea why this is happening all of a sudden and I've made a small demo of what I mean.

I'd appreciate if anyone has any ideas of a cause/solution.

Sounds like,a micro-honic pickup to me.

I tried 2 different guitars and cables though

I guess that rules out the pickup theory unfortunately

Move the position of the Kemper a few feet. You may be caught in a 1.6GHz wormhole like on Skinwalker Ranch.

Not going to lie I thought that was a joke until I googled it! I'll try, thank you. Or is it? I don't know hahaha

No joke. Your cables and gear could be making a giant radio receiver, so I would move everything around. I know you can pick up radio signals as they bounce off the atmosphere. And, yes, UFO's are real.
