storing only favorites on the KPa

In the Rig Manager, you can drag and drop profiles in and out of your KPA from and to local folders on your computer.

I keep my whole collection on my PC, favourites on the KPA, and specific sounds in performance mode.

First, copy all your rigs into a backup folder in rig manager (drag-drop from the profiler).
Alternatively, you can also make a full backup on a USB stick, or "automatically" through rig manager.

Then do as it says in the kemper reference manual:

Quote from Kemper reference manual

Erase Non-Favorites
If you want to clean up your Profiler, you can use the “Erase Non-Favorites” button in the System Settings. All Rigswill be erased, except for “Favorites” and “My Rigs”. We recommend that you create a backup before you use thisfunction.

Make sure you do the backup first, though

And welcome!

You can leave them ALL on the Kemper, and only show Favorites using the filter option for Favorites.

In Rig Manager, click on your Profiler to see the full list of all rigs stored on the profiler, then sort the list by the favourite column, select all non-favourites and delete them.
Might take a while to delete them all, watch the Profiler screen to see when the process is done.

Cheers

Thanks for the replies guys. I have created a backup in the Rig Manager by selecting all rigs on the KPA and dragging to Local Library. I can not find an option to erase all non favorites when I hit the System button on the KPA. What am I missing? Sorry to be a newbie PITA.

Maybe you need to use the page buttons to the right of the display to get to the right page. It should be there:-)

You're welcome

Since RM has the factory Rigs in a seperate folder, thats all I am storing atm in my Profiler folder > Favorites.

i just start to use rig manager and i had many favorities but after rig manager sync with my profiler, my favorities are not marked anymore, should i mark as favorities again but this time through rig manager?

i mean, rig manager should had recognized my favorities or not? seems that it no and unmarked all of then

thanks

make sure that the user name in Rig Manager and Profiler are the same.

thanks for your reply

the name is the same, as soon as i got rig manager working i adjusted the names, i do not know if that made i lost the favorites but i checked and seems a strange behaviour like

if i make a favorite throught rig manager it is working but if i make a favorite throught the profiler with rig manager on, then it says something is corrupt and i need to turn the profiler off for 10 seconds and select browser mode with rig button pressed for 30 seconds and then it correct the rigs

i will make more tests and i think i will be able to handle that and mark then as favorites again as they have a midi program change assigned so it is not so hard to remake then favorities from the profiler selecting then from the midi switch, i hope then when i sync again they will be recognized

would be nice to assign midi program change numbers from rig manager too...also to select midi numbers from the remote, however rig manager already save my day moving extremelly fast 300 rigs to a local folder... it's main function is very nice

the favourites are tied to a author name. this means you will "loose" the favourite marks in your Profiler once you change the author name. if you change the name back, the favourite marks for that specific author will be back as well.

This is what I do.

Sure I rinse some profiles sometimes but really just use this...

I have about 10 favorites right now and I rarely go past them into the others unless I really want to.
This saved me a lot of scrolling, but I still have everything available.

Hello all, I am very new to KPA....I am trying to clear my Kemper while saving the factory profiles. My goal is to have my custom rigs on the profiler but save the factory ones on my Mac....so after reading this, I think I am on the right track....I do not know what file header in rig manager my Profiler is...I am not sure based on the factory labeling....any assistance is appreciated....thanks Rich
