It's so common I play pop rock now.

Hi all,
I have a Powered Rack Kemper and a Kemper Kab and have been loving it. I'm wondering if it's normal for it to "pop" when the Kemper is being turned on and off? I have it plugged in to the Speaker Output. It pops whether I have the "Monitor Cab Off" selected or not. I usually have the Power Amp Volume fairly low, around -50db.
Thanks!

I can't say I personally recommend it... but mine rarely gets turned off unless I'm going to be gone for more than a day.
Hahaha, ok good to know.

It's probably more damaging to keep turning it on and then off frequently...
Yeah that's kinda where my head was initially going, but wasn't sure.
It isn't unusual for me to leave mine on for days at a time.
Wow, ok!

Mine is ON for several hours per day, even when not in direct use, and from many years ... not a problem!!!!
Unfortunately there is no hours-of-operation counter available in the machine. Would be fun I'd say. So I can't really tell. I leave it on for several hours each day and even longer on the weekends. Should be no problem.
Ok thanks for the replies guys, appreciate it! Gonna roll with just leaving it on most of the time while we all ride this thing out...cheers!

Welcome, have fun here in the forum and with your Kemper
Same here, I can not shutdown this machine... so happy to have this incredible tool for creativity on all the time during these times.
Hey thanks! How long have you had yours, have you left it on consistently for a long time now, or just recently?

Hi and welcome to the Forum!
I wish I had got all this free time when I bought my Kemper to explore it carefully ..
To answer Your question I can say that sometimes it happened to me to forgot it on, even for long period (more than one day) But I haven't got any issue with that.
So I'd say it's not dangerous for the machine itself, maybe not so 'safe' for the wasted elctrical consuption.
I mean, it's like when I fall asleep on my couch and the TV goes on all night long.
Thanks for the welcome! Hahaha yeah, I had already accidentally left it on all night once. Hope I don't do that again! Ok, good to know that it's not dangerous for the Kemper itself. If I know I'm not gonna play it at all for a few hours I'll probably go ahead and shut it off, but it is nice to have it just ready to go when I wanna just immediately pick up and play or record some ideas. Cheers!

Hey everybody, pretty new Kemper owner here, just got mine right before all this quarantine madness started. I'm curious, since I've been locked inside, is it safe for me to have my Kemper on for say...18 hours a day for several weeks at a time? I have the power rack version, though I currently have the poweramp disabled in the preferences.
It's nice to just have it on and ready to pick up and play since I don't have much else to do. But, obviously I don't want it to melt within a month or something.I tried searching around and reading through the manual and couldn't find anything on this, so just thought I'd go ahead and ask here. Thanks!
