WTF My volume pedal (BOSS FV-50) is not working with the Kemper??

Take a look at this:

How are you plugging it up? Doesn’t seem like it’s an expression pedal, so just plugging it in won’t work, unless it’s in the front of your chain which as you said works fine.

I have the same pedal in my collection.

You have to use the EXP jack and take care that the min value -poti is set to "min."

I don't think you have to buy a new pedal.

If you don't have a stereo (TRS) expression connector on the pedal then just make or buy basically a stereo splitter cable.

The link posted above is really good and here's another that shows the cable you'd need.

Before I buy an expression pedals I'd like to know what is a good choice? Any suggestion please?

and just in case....if there is some expression pedals that are not compatible with the Kemper?

Thanks

i would steer clear of the Mission unless you only intend to use ot as a Wah. For all other things the taper is petty much useless on mine.

Most people in this forum seem to report great results with the Dunlop DVP pedals.

Dunlop DVP pedals.

Love mine!

The PEDAL sockets of the PROFILER and PROFILER Remote are dedicated to expression pedals and momentary switches. Expression pedals are designed to control digital devices like the PROFILER. That even applies if you want to control the virtual Volume Pedal in the PROFILER. Analog volume pedals connected via a splitter (or insert) cable will only deliver suboptimal results.

There is a chapter in the Main Manual and a video tutorial dedicated to this subject.

So other than the taper of the pot what cab is different between an expression and a volume pedal?

If that's the only real difference, the Kemper could have a "calibrate expression pedal" mode in which it figures out if the pedal pot is linear or log while the player does a heel to toe movement.

Maybe I should file this under "feature requests".

We had investigated this option. As a matter of fact, software cannot recover a resolution, that the wrong pot does simply not deliver across the whole range. There is a reason why digital devices use expression pedals.

How do you use it at all? I have the same volume pedal but not sure how to use it with input.
