Hi everyone,
I'm writing this as when I was trying to do this it took me weeks and had lots of on line help.
This will help you use the Snapshot feature to switch Kemper Rigs in Performance Mode.
Midi cable from Helix out - Kemper in
The following works with either "Instants" or "Footswitches"
Good to Command centre
Command - Bank PC
Midi Ch - Base (Kemper is left to Midi 1)
CC00 - set to zero
CC32 - "0" for up to Performance 26 Slot 3 / After this switch to "1" for Bank 2 / "2" for Bank 3
Prog - 0-127 (see below)
Prog is where the performance slot is using a formula, which equates to this -
Performance 1 / Slot 1 = 0
Performance 1 / Slot 2 = 1
Performance 1 / Slot 3 = 2
Performance 1 / Slot 4 = 3
Performance 1 / Slot 5 = 4
Performance 2 / Slot 1 = 5
Performance 2 / Slot 2 = 6
Performance 2 / Slot 3 = 7
Performance 2 / Slot 4 = 8
Performance 2 / Slot 5 = 9
Performance 3 / Slot 1 = 10
Performance 3 / Slot 2 = 11
Performance 3 / Slot 3 = 12
Performance 3 / Slot 4 = 13
Performance 3 / Slot 5 = 14
Carries on in same sequence until -
Performance 26 / Slot 1 = 125
Performance 26 / Slot 2 = 126
Performance 26 / Slot 3 = 127
Now change CC32 to "1" instead of zero
Performance 26 / Slot 4 = 0
Performance 26 / Slot 5 = 1
Performance 27 / Slot 1 = 2
Performance 27 / Slot 2 = 3
Performance 27 / Slot 3 = 4
Performance 27 / Slot 4 = 5
Performance 27 / Slot 5 = 6
You may also want to check the Midi Global Settings on Helix -
Midi Base Ch - "1'
Midi Thru - "off"
Rx Midi Clock - "Auto"
Tx Midi Clock - "off"
Tempo - "Snapshot"
BPM - "120"
USB Midi - "off"
Midi PC Rx - "off"
Midi PC Tx - "off"
You may also want to check the Midi Global Settings on Kemper -
System Settings - scroll along to "Performance Mode: "Midi"
Soft Buttons at top - set to Midi Out for either channel you are using
I renamed my device "Helix" so I knew which it was and made sure on Channel 1
Next Page
UI to Midi - Unticked
Pedal to Midi - unticked
Send Midi Clock - unticked
Midi Global Channel - Channel 1
CC73 - 127
If using "Instants" or Footswitches" to change rigs you may want to alter this setting too -
Global Settings - Preferences - Snapshot Edits - "Discard"
Using Snapshots
Go to Snapshot 1
Command Centre - Instant 1 - (set your required Performance Slot e.g Performance 1 Slot 1 see above table"
SAVE!!!!!!!!!! (As we changed the Snapshot edits to discard - otherwise you'll get the same performance slot on every Instant)
Go to Snapshot 2
Command Centre - Instant 1 - (set your required Performance Slot e.g Performance 1 Slot 2 see above table"
SAVE!!!!!!!!!!
Go to Snapshot 3
Command Centre - Instant 1 - (set your required Performance Slot e.g Performance 1 Slot 3 see above table"
SAVE!!!!!!!!!!
This should work perfect! Please contact me or persevere if not happening at first! They are SUPERB when both linked to my FRFR!!!!!
