    I have never had this issue before!

    I've been switching between front input (when recording guitar) and SPDIF (when reamping) for years


    But yesterday suddenly when I wanted to switch to SPDIF I couldn't get signal from computer...

    But then I accidently bumped into my guitar and heard the signal... FROM THE FRONT INPUT!??!?


    Why is it doing this?! I switch back and fourth between the settings "front input" and "spdif input" and it makes NO DIFFERENCE :|

    I released an album on CD earlier this year, and while fans seemed to have no real issue with the mix, this is the first mix I have ever done that I absolutely hate in retrospect.

    I spent too much time mixing, from morning to evening, sometimes with almost no pauses, and after a while I was like "SCREW THIS" and released it as it was. Big mistake!


    Oh well, there's coming a VINYL version of this album, and I was just in time before the label send to pressing, so I spent just 2 days remixing this album and the result is IN MY OPINION much better. More full sounding! And vocals are more present.


    I reamped all rhythm guitars with the Thumas "Peavey Rage profile" which I have by myself crowned as my signature Kemper profile :love:

    Lead and solo guitars are still the same as before, and I have no idea what profiles I used, or if I used any ampsims... I honestly dont remember.

    Before mix all lead guitars was bounced out on a stereo track complete with all spot delays and shit going on.


    OH WELL

    There was a "songwriting challenge" on the Metal-Archives forum, and it was supposed to be a bunch of contestants but in the end we were only two who made complete songs :D


    Oh well, here's mine. It could probably be longer, but I just wanted to make a short old school death metal headbanger without any unnecessary fluff

    Using a Barrington BRG883 superstrat from the 80s (modded!!!)

    and The Famous Thumas Peavey Rage profile (tm)

    Just fyi, when I say move, I mean imperceptibly, not inches or cm or even close. My plug is snug (haha) and my cable quite firm. Sometimes just pushing on a KPA button can do it.

    Wasted a lot of my time too swapping cables and interfaces.

    Oh man I really hope this isn't the case with mine!


    Oh well... I'm getting a new RME interface soon, and will couple it with a cheapo-decent analog mixer for monitoring.


    At the moment I'm using a Tascam US1641 and if I would use analog DI from Kemper, I would hear that signal because if I want the latency free monitoring, I cannot choose to mute individual inputs ...

    Not sure what exactly I film on


    I just dont get any audio signal from the SPDIF... most of the time. Sometimes. I see no pattern when and why it cuts out.


    Sometimes the playback audio in the DAW just "freezes" (NOT MIDI for reason) for a second and then the SPDIF signal is lost.

    And that is NOT the DAW, because the same kind "freeze" happens whenever I turn off the Kemper while Cubase is playing at the same time.

    My studio computer isn't even connected to the internet, so I haven't updated that computer forever. Still Windows 7


    Only times I have connected is when getting a new VST or something, but that rarely happens

    I have used SPDIF the last couple of years with no issues until now.


    Suddenly the last couple of weeks I have had nothing but issues!


    I have tried different SPDIF cables, two different computers and two different audio interfaces (Tascam US1641 and US144MKII) and the problem is always there!



    Sometimes it works and I get signal, sometimes it dont. Analog outputs is not a problem with any setup. But SPDIF has been very inconsistant lately.

    I restart Kemper, and sometimes that solves the problem...

    I restart the interface, and sometimes that solves the problem...

    I restart the DAW or computer or whatever and sometimes that solves the problem...

    But sometimes it doesn't matter how many times I restart any unit in the chain and I get no signal!


    HELP! ||
