Do I have Kemper paranoia (sound difference between Version 6.0.0 and Version 7.1.5) (SOLVED)

  • Happy new Year to all.


    I'm using a Profiler PowerRack.


    So I updated to 7.1.5 and noticed that with High Gain Profiles there is something wrong with the sound.
    Something between 5 to 7 Khz the Sound get's harsh and crispy commared to Version 6.

    Sounds like digital fractals.


    I testeted with the same Profiles ( e.g. Rig Exchange: Bogner Goldfinger from RickyStorti with the Mars 1960 AV Cab).

    Double checked with 2 different FRFR Speaker ( HeadRush FRFR-112 and a Passive Cabinet with Celestion F12-X200).

    Is there any know Issue with that?

    Anyone here with two Kempers to make an A/B Test?


    Do I have Paranoia ? :wacko:

    I'm back to Version 6 right now.

    Be the force with you ;)

  • Are the settings of the Output EQ the same after the update?


    Does is sound different with all effects off?


    Is pure cab on/off globally?


    Just a few ideas and maybe you can make recordings?

  • I didn't change any thing, when I go back to V6 every thing was like before.

    Right now I don't have the time to fiddle around.

    Is there a way to dump/export the system settings to the USB Stick ?

    When I have more time I will measure the KPA with a Frequence Analyser Tool. (before and after update).

    Be the force with you ;)

  • So mea culpa ...

    I found it, I'm to old for that ...


    Reason:

    After Update from 6 to 7 the SPDIF frequency was reseted to 44.1 KHz I'm normaly working with 96KHz.

    So in addition to my CAB the monitor speakers produced the noise because the Interface was not able to sync the SPDIF.

    Be the force with you ;)

  • Strange ( and stupid ) that every (?) personal settings you´ve made

    to maximize your setup is set back to default when updating :/

    I think I´ll never update my unit now =O

    ( I´m still on OS 6 and it works perfect , and as they say ;

    " If it works , don´t touch it" ;) )


    Cheers !

    The adjective for metal is metallic. But not so for iron ... which is ironic.

  • Is that true? Are you talking about the system/input/out settings?

    I wouldn't expect that to be the case....

  • I don´t know , hence the question mark (?) after "every" :/

    But some users have strange things going on after updates

    and Yoda just experienced one ......

    I am more than happy with my KPA and as I said , it works

    (and sounds) amazing . No updates for me ..... yet 8o

    But that´s me :pinch:


    Cheers !
