You’re not making an argument, you’re making an excuse.
I’m not excusing aliasing being more prevalent in Kemper. I’m accepting the premise of that assertion. Period.
I’m asking you to have some perspective.
In spite of the aliasing being ‘however bad’ you can prove it to be the reality is: it isn’t bad enough to hamper Kempers efforts to create and sell their profiling equipment with great success. Kemper profiling has been very well received since 2011.
My take on your diatribe about Kemper and aliasing is you have narrowed your perspective solely to aliasing and seem to suggest everything else that Kemper can build a product on has little to no importance because aliasing has infected their product. Just because you say you haven’t done that doesn’t mean you haven’t. Your words prove it. Including your post I’m quoting from.
You suggest success of sales, recordings using Kempers and industry accolades are an excuse, that I cite them to prop up an insincere question.
Bullshit. The question is sincere.
Here’s another. Why do you feel compelled to claim people just can’t hear it therefore their appreciation of Kemper is not a valid reason to support their choice? Maybe they don’t hear enough of it to be concerned?!?
Sure you’ll say you don’t mind their choice but then you’ll go on citing aliasing like a priest sloshing holy water on them as if they are possessed by the devil.
The reality of it is Kemper didn’t set out to build a perfect, aliasing free product. Certainly in their efforts they would have tried to get it as perfect as reasonably possible but the goal was to introduce a viable product that would be a hit with musicians. Not a laboratory instrument that can defeat any aliasing in the process of mimicking a guitar amp.
They built the Kemper Profiling Amp and it sounds good enough to be a viable product. They then went on to prove that over the last 14 years.
That success shows that any aliasing in Kemper is of a low enough level that your peers at large in the music industry disagree with your level of alarm. And they probably would take offense at your describing them as inadequate judges of good replication of a guitar amp sound.
You’re using popularity as a shield against criticism, as if mass opinion is proof of merit. It isn’t. It never has been.
The fact that you see the mention of the success of the product as a shield from criticism is interesting. Are you the defender of the consumer? You here to defend us from our ‘lack of good judgement’? You the white knight, taking on the black knight?
You have done more than your share of declaring your criticism. We get that….yet you insist we don’t get it, that we are all deaf or in denial etc.
What is the real point you are trying to make? It isn’t that Kemper has aliasing. You wore that out a long time ago. You are after a different result. What is it?
