which one is better for record ? S/PDIF or Direct output ?

If you record in mono it can't sound as huge as through the headphone out which is stereo. You can record your guitar track two times in mono but pan each track hard left/right.

And use two different profiles. Otherwise it will only sound lik big mono and not stereo. spdf or direct out, doesn't matter. But spdf is more convenient if you decide to reamp.

Two different profiles or at least one profile with different settings. Don't dial in too much gain because the gain of two tracks will sort of "sum up" and will sound way more huge than one track. Two tracks with much gain will likely lead to more muddiness.

What do you mean by this?

If you hear a direct sound on your recording you've likely chose the wrong output option. Dial in Master Mono or Master Stereo. And - sorry I have to say this - read the manual.

I do not think you want to use Direct out to record. Use one of the master outputs. Direct out is used to profile, which sends the dry sound of your guitar to the amp.

HI All

I got the same problem and I resolved it with OUT of S/PDIF of KPA to Audio card S/PDIF in (use 75 ohm RCA cable )

How connect Kemper with Audio card

Ciao

I also tried the stereo record, but the sound is not good, like a direct sound with headphones

I also upgraded the audio interface and tested the higher dynamic range , but the same results were obtained

I think you should look at it with a bigger picture. The art of recording is a chain . And if only a part of the chain is bad the result will be bad . Now you seem to suggest that the output of the Kemper is the trouble. Well maybe its not. Look around that too... Do you use a super good audio interface? (upgraded or not) If the audio interface is not professional, it will make the Kemper (which IS pro equipement) sounds awfull. ____You can test this... Listen to a CD player with your headphone... it sounds good right? Ok then put the output on your audio interface and record it. If it sounds like sh-t now you've find the problem. There is more to test (the DAW for instance may need adjustment) but you got the general idea that kind of test with every part of your chain, instead of focusing on the output of the Kemper. The Kemper is probably the best part of the chain Look somewhere else the DAW adjustement the audio interface etc Thats my point . Hope it helps

Ariagoshtasb posed the question 3 months ago tomorrow and has only posted 6 times in total, meaning that he's unlikely to respond any time soon.

He would have solved this by now (one would hope!), but with any luck your thoughtful advice will help someone at some point, Gforce.
