Well that issue was not reported in 1.05 so perhaps the issue occured during the update of the firmware.

so strange, and yes there is a huge audible difference in those patches. I went from 1.04, to 1.05, then back down to 1.04, and then up to 1.06, with no noticable difference to me. I tried going from one patch then to another then right back and no difference, so I am not experiencing the same problem you are clearly having. So strange, and certainly a notable issue. I don't think its across the board yet, but def submit it as a trouble ticket and see what they have to say. hope it works out VERY SOON for you..

Hey, at least now we know that parts of it are coded in good old C++.
How do you know this from this bug?

Check the screenshot a couple of posts before mine. The file where the error occurs is a .cpp file, admittedly it's a strings table file (which technically shouldn't be labeled cpp in order to avoid it compiling), but I'd say that given it's a standard postfix it makes pretty likely that at least some of the KPA firmware has been developed in C++.

BTW you likely wont notice this bug on lower gain patches. I found it very noticeable on certain patches, e.g. I'd left the unit on the stock "Mr. Nice Guy" patch, switching on the patch was full, going right then left with the rig buttons on the right side of the unit the sound became much thinner, especially noticeable playing some barre chords and lead around A.

Hi,
Only had my KPA a couple of days and I experience the same problem.
Have only done one upgrade and it is to version 1.0.4.

Done some testing:
Setup: Guitar -> KPA -> Headphones (in KPA), nothing else.

Hope I made "system reset ..." the right way.
Turn of KPA - press and hold "system" -Turn on KPA.
1. Test with a rig I profiled myself inkluding some stomps and effects in KPA.
- load rig
- Turn of KPA
- Turn on KPA and listen to the sound
- Browse to the same rig and load it and the sound is different.
2. Test with same rig but turn of stomps and effects in KPA and save as a new rig.
- load rig
- Turn of KPA
- Turn on KPA and listen to the sound
- Browse to the same rig and load it and the sound is different.
3. Test with same rig but turn of stomps, effects and STACK in KPA and save as a new rig.
- load rig
- Turn of KPA
- Turn on KPA and listen to the sound
- Browse to the same rig and load it and this time I can´t tell if the sound is different.
So maybe the problem is in the "Stack module" ?
According to my taste the sound is better after turn on KPA and don´t reload the rig.

Conclusion.

Setup in Studio:
Load the rig you want to record - turn of KPA - turn on KPA - newer change rig :wacko:
Maybe a solution but not so practical ???
Liverig:
???

I completely ignored this. Going through all the posts again, and stumbled upon this.
Seems like net99 has this prob on 1.0.4 already - so maybe 1.0.5. is not the culprit, but 1.0.4????

Oh god Schneidas - I've been telling you this for hours :D - see posts 82, 103, 105.

It's not just related to 1.05

I'm still on 1.04 (have not updated yet) and can say 100% with this firmware there's an issue in tone when you edit a patch, save/replace, then toggle presets. For me, it's not so much thin and low volume, more muddy, blanketed and lifeless. Then when you reboot the patch clears back up to the orig saved edited patch. Toggle around presets, edit save/replace patch, toggle back the tone changes back to dull.

Here's my soundcloud page. Each of the track has been recorded with an USA Stratocaster and Steavens Poundcake profile. In descriptions you can find what i did before recording (e.g. navigate thru profiles, system reboot, etc).
