Hi
im seeking for that kind of sound. sry for the bad youtube quality:

While recording i add a tube-saturation Plugin to the final recorded audiofile to get that kind of sound. I ask myself how to do that live. A Tube-Saturation effect would be great.

Hello Guys,
just bought a used Behringer FCB1010 without uno chip. I set it up to my likings (even switching on/off Stomps). But the only thing i dont get the pedals to work. The left one is volume and works since i connected it but i cant change it. the right one does nothing. i calibrated the pedals. Even Kemper dont recognice the fcb in system. (but everything except the pedals works fine)
Any idea?
Greetings

Before finding the culprit this problem can also change everyday depending on surroundings and what profiles you play with. Sometimes the problem isn't there, sometimes it's bad. Throughout my own testing of this problem I only used headphones.
As for your monitors, it's probably similar grounding issues. If it's gone, then, something must have changed. Anyway, hope you solve your problem. I did and I'm happy with my Kemper for recording now.
What was your problem? what solved it ?
I dont know but i think after buying a subwoofer its gone ... only change i remember ...
Display MoreI battled this problem from the first day I got my kemper. I can hear exactly the same problem I had and no, it's not normal because the noise is always there. The noise gate can silence the signal, but, the noise remains during any playing. This noise you will find also affects note sustain, as if the noise "eats" the note away. Infact, even a few demo recordings at places like The Amp Factory exhibit this problem. You will realise the difference when you finally solve this noise problem and you finally hear the full Kemper sound, especially on clean profile sounds where notes are more likely to be sustained. To test whether you have this problem just play and hold a chord or note. If you don't hear the full length decay of the sound, then, it's likely the same problem discussed here.
List of things I tried;
1. Push grounding switches in at the back of the kemper. Test different combinations to see if it helps.
2. Disconnect all other electrical devices especially laptop power-supplies. If you have multiple people with laptops in the house, then, try waiting until everyone has gone and disconnect them all. Internet routers can also add noise.
3. Use power conditioners, preferably 2 together in serial and connect the kemper to the last one in the chain. I use 2x Lindys power conditioners (they have 6 sockets each).
4. Try using different power plugs, 2 pin, 3 pin with a travel adapter and see if that helps.
5. Move as far away from your electrical equipment as possible with your guitar during recording/playing. Even try turning away from your gear and see if it helps.
6. Use high-quality leads like Monster Cable. I found when I had this noise problem I could also hear faint radio signals. Leads make a difference when you have this problem.
7. If you have to power your laptop/pc, then, plug the power-supply/cable directly into the main socket, don't use extension cables at all for these pieces of hardware.
8. Turn the light off in your room.
9. Disconnect all unnecessary USB devices especially hard-drives. Even USB soundcards can add noise, but, this is hard to fix apart from moving as far away from it as possible.
10. Turn LCD/Monitor/TV/Radio off especially during recording.
11. If your soundcard has a grounding screw, then, connect a grounding cable (green and yellow one) to it along with a plug (cable is connected to ground only) and plug it into the mains, but, leave the mains switch off! Do not try this with power on, it doesn't work!
Hope that helps you find your problem. Good luck!
Thank you very much
many of that steps can be controlled by plug in in kemper somewhere else (maybe another house :D) and listen with headphone. I will do that today. And Many of them i tried before with no success.
I had a similar problem with my monitors too but it did not record the noise so i didnt spent all the time solving it. Dont know why but its gone (monitore problem - yamaha hs80m)
Hey, dont know if this was before and if its normal but my kemper produces quiet noise and with more distortion or more treble ( in this case a treble booster in the stomp section) it get very loud. The funny thing the noise gate dont do anything about it till i damp the sides completly. (example at the beginning) it is with every guitar i have and too if the guitar is plugged of.
cant imagine that its broken cause i had it the whole time in a rackcase but i played concerts with it.

here a example
Nacht: Here are the profiles, https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17807903/Peavey%20RM.zip
DonPetersen: I could try that.
Thanks
well i have a reamp box, maybe i should give it a try someday.
Nacht: do you really want those, i might still have them on my kpa, i will check it out.
yeah man! love them its a bit static x like
damn i want that profile please post it. (i relly like those dirty sounds) I understand that its not that what you want but i think they're great though
If you swap the cab for a Tills Mesa the sound is more suited for low volume playing/recording. (My personal "go to" is 009).
No i need it for live ... my problem with FRFR is the awkward noise SHHHHH in the top end when playing very loud. (i like tones with MUCH treble - Manson / Rammstein like). Is a problem with any budget-FRFR i tested .. (budget 1-600€)
ok thanks i will try it in the evening with my alto and schecter hellraiser[could fit with the tone poti @ 0}.
which frfr u have (and which guitar/pus) ?
hm sry think the guy has the right to. ( it is not very cool but i think he would win it) :/. you never may use something somebody created in your own works without his permission. Its like you cut out a solo of a metallica song and put it into your song. (im not a pro in law and such things but a webdesigner from germany)
i think a link should be no problem ...
Ja beim Support hab ich angerufen=starkes tonband habt ihr da!!! is ja witz oder?!?!
Wo hast du ihn gekauft? Schick denen hald das Ding zurück. Kann verstehen dass du genervt bist aber das sollte ne aussnahme sein - bis jetzt gibs wenig negatives über Kemper zu berichten.
edit:/ ups letzten satz überlesen
I would probably take the one that sounds best AND are within budget.
There is no PA that HAVE a flat response. So it would be a mistake to claim that a certain monitor will sound 'more like' a PA.
On the other hand, how did the Solton compare to the Box?
I'm kind of fond of the idea that the casing of the Solton let me put the KPA on top of it, if I don't use it as an wedge...
OK good point.
IMO Yamaha was the best then the pyrit and then the solton. All of those 3 did a great job. But the Yamaha had that WOW effect. Im just wondering if those monitors are loud enough for gigs etc (for small gigs with weak pa where the main sound comes out of the real box for example)
Any thoughts about that?
If its true what he says what would you take?
The one with more clarity , sounding bigger and better or the one which sounds absolutly good but not nearly as good as the first one BUT is flat and response like the most PA's?
Where's the proof that the Pyrit has a better/flatter EQ curve than he Yamaha?
I would take the one that sounds best (in a certain price range).
i think there is no proof i just trust that seller. (and he was telling me the much cheaper product is the better ... the only reason could be because the cheaper ones are thoman products ). He just told me that the pyrit just response more likely then the most PA on stages. I mean if thats true its absolutly right i would set up my tone on a that box and give the same signal to the pa and the mixer dont have much to work on it. Would be perfect.
thank you but by saying except atomic i meant the price is to high
