Hi, Buster3113.
The Problem with this method is as soon as you plug i.e guitar into the front input the kemper shuts off the aux input. No sound from mp3 player.
Auxiliary Input
The Auxiliary Input function allows you to feed a stereo signal, such as an mp3-player, into your PROFILER to play along with it.
In the Output Section, the Auxiliary Input function is equipped with three mix controls: one to feed the
aux signal to the MAIN OUTPUT as well as S/PDIF OUTPUT, and two others to feed it to the MONITOR OUTPUT
and HEADPHONE output. This allows you, for instance, to add an additional monitor signal to your HEADPHONE
output, while the MAIN OUTPUT stays unaffected.
This hint is for all PROFILER variants other than Stage: With the activation of “Monitor Stereo” MONITOR OUTPUT
and DIRECT OUTPUT get paired as one logical stereo monitor output. The Aux In signal will also appear on both
and its mix gets controlled via “Aux In >Monitor”. The auxiliary signal will not be affected by any internal effects.
Output Section 116
You will need to purchase a special cable which provides the stereo signal via two separate TS jacks. Plug the left
jack into the RETURN (RETURN 1 of PROFILER Stage) and the right jack into the ALTERNATIVE INPUT (RETURN
2 of PROFILER Stage). Use the "Aux In >…" soft knobs to adjust the level.
The PROFILER Stage allows you to use Aux In along with one mono or stereo effect loop.
For all other PROFILER variants, the Auxiliary Input cannot be used while you have an Effect Loop active in your
Rig, or while you are in PROFILER Mode, as the physical inputs are needed for a different purpose.
✓To prevent unwanted hum and noise, please remember to turn down the Auxiliary Input Mix when you are not using
it.
