thanks?

Hello !

I have the same with a fender strat deluxe. A high tone wich appears ramdomely, i don't know why...

Peharps Kemper team could give us a feedback on this problem ?

duckman · Dec 11th 2014

I have the same issue, in my case it is caused by light dimmer in my room, not the KPA.

Kemper Support #1 · Dec 11th 2014

We have no reports about high frequency noise like the one in your example.
Does this also occur when you use the Profiler in a different location?

Papoos · Dec 11th 2014

Strange, what is the link between light dimmer and KPA or the guitar ?

Kemper Support #1 · Dec 11th 2014

Light dimmers can have an influence on the electric system in your house.
Same goes for refrigerators f.e.

For my case, it occurs in 2 different location of my house, room and dinner room plugged in a different outlet, but i have a 45m2 pad so i don't know if it is relevant:)

It can be a lot of electronic stuff.
I have similiar sounds with PC or monitor close to the guitar pickup.
Sometimes it can be USB cable plugged to the Kemper.
It even can be your cell phone:)

warlus1 · Dec 11th 2014

It isn't the monitor, i have the same without PC.

Well done for the cell phone but it s not that.

I ll check in an other house this next week and i ll come back.

Already tried another cable?
Is your guitar properly shielded?

Elcap420 · Dec 11th 2014

Funny, I get this sound as well, lately I have been playing Strats so I figured that the Single coils were creating this artifact but perhaps there is something a bit more global going on.

God, I miss my Kemper! Off in Marseille for an 8 month intensive Software Engineering program Sadly my Kemper is not in Marseille with me at the moment, probably a good thing, otherwise I would be jamming the Kemper and not writing code and designing Database models :p

Cable : klotz lagrange. No trouble with amplitube or amp

Guitar: Gibson Les Paul studio (95) and humbukers shielded by a luthier (it s the good word in english?)

So no, this sound come from the kemper.maybe due to electricity (i hope)...

Elcap : tu es d'où?

At the moment living in Marseille But my Kemper is just north of Avignon currently. After the holidays I will bring it down. I am starving musically without it.

Are you in France Warlus? And yes Luthier is perfect. In fact I was a Luthier for a long time before moving to France. Loved the work not the pay In France it is near impossible to make a living as a Luthier. It was hard enough in the States.
