CK On The Gear Page Today

I was just today wondering about the release version of the latest beta and musing on when the next major release might happen.

It is good to hear that CK says there is more on deck for our beloved KPA.

Yeah, and a lot more at that.

Woohoo!

I found nothing on the gearpage.
Would you have a link to share Man with gas ?

Killer! Mr @ckemper is the man!

Worth checking this thread today as CK has replied confirming an editor one day etc

Indeed, this is an exciting day for all of us KPA owners. This is our first official confirmation that a software editor is in the works. Also, Christoph has reconfirmed the fact that new Reverb options are being developed.

Thank you Kemper GmbH, and thank you @ckemper for at least putting an end to endless, incessant rumors and speculation on these matters (i.e., will they or won't they do this or that).

CK's response in The Gear Page thread:

Quote from Ckemper

There is no contradiction in what you've said. We have addressed user wishes in a different order than some users would expect. In our perception there is more urgent requests to be fulfilled first, such as new reverb options or a better handling of the effect presets. Our to-do list is also affected by the allocation to our engineers. Not every engineer can take over any task, as they are more or less specialized for certain technics. One day there will be a software editor, for sure. But I think it is not fair to make a public anouncement before thinks are up and running. Some users might call this an arrogant behavior, but we have the ethics not to influence buying decicions of potential new users by announcing features that are not available shortly after the announcement.

Cheers,
John.

Thanks John for posting the quote by CK. Very nice to read that indeed!! And thanks to @Man_With_Gas for finding it....

as if it was all about good faith... geee... couldn't they just have dropped such a sentence over this place a year or more ago, we could have avoided much useless anger posts. we just needed to read it

I'm happy, but frustrated, but happy, but frustrated... I'm happy

Unfortunately, no This is an official statement, that there will be an editor »one day«. That doesn't mean that it is already in work.

Also, as far as I remember a similar statement was made a few NAMMs ago. Nevertheless, nice to hear that an editor is still on the agenda

I was using "in the works" in the broad sense. Maybe a more accurate description, based on CKemper's testimony, is that a software editor is officially part of the KPA platform's roadmap.

Nevertheless, whether it comes today, tomorrow or in two years, at least we know that it is in the pipeline, which is great news!

Hey, Mr @ckemper, how come you don't post all this great information on THIS forum, like you should instead of TGP! Kind of feels bad that we had to get this from another website.

Hi Benigni,

What are the low-hanging fruits you have in mind?

I can tell that since day one every single feature update or change we have done was driven by user input, and we are happy to follow this lead, with a constantly growing team.
On the other hand, some developements take a long time to make a precicion landing and to be future-proof, unfortunately. Like other companies, We rarely talk about our agenda, since we don't want to build up expectations that we cannot fulfil in a short time. This in combination might lead to the impression that we are resistant to customer requests. Let me assure you that we are working hard for new features. We have a long and interesting to-do list [Blocked Image: https://www.thegearpage.net/board/styles/default/xenforo/clear.png]

Anyway, let us check if we have skipped an easy feature on our agenda.

Great news
Let's see how long the unpatients will be immobilized.

They have been talking about new reverbs to two years now, still in the works. I except an editor around 2025. We'll see...

That is a bit odd to post there when active owners here have been asking.

Maybe it's a marketing tactic

maybe it's not the real CK

I am just happy that he mentioned the Reverb engine and efx management first .... since selfishly, these are my top 1 and 2 "wants"
