^ I have to agree. That man's behaviour is scandalous to me, to say the least. I've been a member over Fractal forum since before the Axe-2 popped out and have been following TGP since then (when I was still on a quest for a digital preamp).
ckemper: I don't buy that Fractal thought publishing axe's profiles over their forum was a move from you. It was clearly a move from an enthusiastic user.
IMO, the thread was closed because Scott was - for the first time AFAIAC - loosing control over the insurrection against his manifest biasing. He's a strong debater, and his manners usually succeed in turning the discussion towards what he decides. But not this time.
Anyway, here's a link to the whole discussion should you be interested. I believe you should at least be aware of what's going on.
This is total BS.
I've kept my mouth shut, but this is really too much.
A few facts; and I'll back any of them up for CK in person if need be. This all needs to stop.
I am co-owner of The Gear Page. I do not - for obvious reasons I hope - moderate threads, posts or people in the Digital and Modeling Section of TGP though. I did not remove said thread, moderate it, or have anything to do with how it was handled. We abstain from moderating threads we are involved in as active participants (deferring to impartial moderators to take a look at issues that pop up) and we also will recuse ourselves if a friend or 'non'-friend is involved in the disputed post.
Contrary to popular opinion here, I am not what many people here have assumed nor implied. My bias is clear - I own a competing product. That bias is not in play on the Gear Page though - I do not moderate on KPA threads.
There is a lot of misinformation and flat out untruths here regarding me and my character; I'm only posting this because of all of it the quoted one is untrue, totally offensive and uncalled for.
I have never said one negative word - on ANY forum on the Internet - about the KPA. In fact, I've gone out of my way to note that every KPA I have worked with for clients of mine has been a very good sounding unit. I have not ever once - on TGP nor on the Fractal Forum - spoke negatively of the KPA. I've worked with two clients that had them in their rigs and wanted integration advice with also using it with an Axe-FX II. Strangely, those two gentleman and I never came to blows, had words nor debated the two boxes. They are tool boxes for guitarists and as such - as with any guitar processor on the planet past, present or future - all have their place.
When I visited the Kemper room at the Amp Show last month, I was treated politely and treated nicely in the Kemper room. Even wearing my Fractal shirt (I was giving a workshop at the Axe-Fest Owner's Group down in the lobby).
I invite any of you that have questions or comments that apply to me to contact me directly at TGP. Do not just believe what is posted online at forums. I am not what I am made out to be here.
one day!
