Kemper Amps Forum

Quoted from "dhodgson"

For clarity's sake, the amps in both versions crackle a bit - but the solo stomp only crackles in the recent rev.

Hmmmm... not ideal!

Schneidas,

As far as the solo stomp aliasing is concerned, the two are virtually identical. It's the crackling that's new - you could subtract the 2nd from the 1st, or the 1st from the second and hear the same noise ('tho the polarity of the crackle would be flipped.)

I cannot reproduce the crackles in any version. Do you record thru Spdif?
Does it crackle when you play guitar?
Anyone else have crackles?

CK,

I'm not sophisticated enough to notice these artifacts - I just love your creation. I just wanted to give you some encouragement.

I also wanted to thank you for spending as much time as you do on these forums, following up personally on issues. This is very reassuring and to be commended!

I don't have crackles via S/PDif.
However, I think the guys mean aliasing and not crackles per se...

I get crackles if I put the Comp in front of the Pure Boost and turn off the noise gate, like static noise.., but as soon as you play or turn the noise gate on then is gone...

Maybe these crackles are the numerical noise?

Yes, I have crackles that sound just like Cubase when it overloads the CPU - you probably know how that sounds

I do have them only just after I switched to another Rig and only for the first couple of seconds and then it works fine. It doesn't happen most of the time so there must be kind of a pattern I haven't figured out yet. I think it is when I'm switching from a clean to a distorted profile but I have yet to verify that. Anyway it seems more of an issue of the loading process and not a general problem with the actual profiles. Will look into it deeper later today when I find the time.

I have a few pops that seem to be happening randomly (via SP/Dif) every now and again - although they are pretty rare, but they usually happen every 5 - 10 minutes for no apparent reason (even while playing and not messing around on the KPA or PC).

Hmm, let's see... We got Crackle and Pop.

So, just Snap's missing for the party!

I had this out of the box, had to perform a system reset to get it to stop.

Yes, I had tried this as well but it didn't change anything.
I still get a pop every now and again. But they appear to happen pretty randomly, and sometimes I can play for 30 mins to an hour without a single one...
