I would appreciate a Kemper VST. I'm a Kemper user for many years now and I love playing around with different sounds/profiles all the time in my mixes. But it's so time consuming to reamp a whole song when I want to switch to a different sound or simply try out different amps/cabs in a mix situation.

I'm trying out the Helix Native demo since a few days and the possibility to have a consistent sound between the hardware unit (monitoring me while playing) and my mix is something I would like to have with the Kemper. I could do the final reamp as soon as I stick to a final sound/mix.

Meanwhile I'm not using the Kemper for recording anymore and switched back to plugins - Thermionik and Ownhammer IRs. Just because of the reasons described above: I want to stay flexible.

Though I fully understand the cracking problem - for the Kemper company and all profile creators.

Why not try engaging the noise gate in the dedicated section? I'm pretty sure you won't hear any noise at all.

The noisegates were disabled for testing the different scenarios and carving out that there are differences. In my productive workflow I have noisegates enabled - of course

But: the white post-tone-noises described in scenario 2+3 can't be eliminated with a noisegate so that it sounds good and natural.

If you turn off the loop, is there still noise? What setting is your noise gate at?

Noise Gates are completely turned off.

Setup is as follows: Patch cable directly from send to return. Loaded a pretty gain-y amp that has lots of noise when I have any noise gate off.

- FX Pre-Stack
1) FX off: typical hi-gain amp noise can be heard and behaves "naturally", no swelling or something
2) Loop Distortion: Noise completely disappears. Noise appears when I touch strings or play. Especially when playing "palm mutes" there's some noise at the end post-ringing and then disappearing. Sounds like a bad setup noisegate.
3) Loop Mono, Ducking 0.0: same behavior as described in 2.
4) Loop Mono, Ducking -0.0: same behavior as described in 1.

The noise heard in 2+3 is different from the gainy noise I get in 1. It's something in addition, like a static white noise and pretty disturbing. Gladly using option 4 solves my problem but it seems like a workaround. I want to use a TubeScreamer as Pre-FX with "Loop Distortion" but that won't work with the behavior described in 2.

I didn't test this whole behavior with setting the Loop Post-Stack!

Thread is a bit old but I can confirm the noise. Anything new on this topic?

Aah, thanks

The thread title is "Merged Cab Pack 3!", so I was a bit confused!

Sorry for asking (again), but where can I find this Cab Pack 3? The link above is not working.

"Engl Victor Smolski" would be awesome. My favorite Engl by far.

Recorded clip would be helpfull, yes.
- Does the noise occur only with single coil or also humbucker pickups?
- Does the noise change when you move the guitar or change your position in the room?
