Hello everyone,
I am using a merged profile for the following. I am looking to utilize a rig's Cabinet Profile on the main outs, while using one of Kemper's built-in speaker imprints through my Kemper Kone at the same time.
Full Range Mode sounds much better through main outs, while obviously the Speaker Imprint for the Kemper Kone (in my case, I love the Jensen P12Q) sounds much better through the Kone. I can go into the Cabinet menu and select the imprint (between Global, Full Range, and the selection of Kemper Kone speaker imprints) but this changes settings for the main outs AND the Kemper Kone.
Is there any way to use Full Range Mode on the Main Outputs, while using a Cabinet Imprint on my Kemper Kone?
I've read through the manual multiple times, and not sure if I'm misunderstanding something. In the manual, on page 89 it says:
QuoteYou need to bypass the Cabinet PROFILE for the MONITOR OUTPUT, to avoid running a guitar cabinet simulation through a physical guitar cabinet. The soft button labeled "Monitor Cab Off” in the Output Section will bypass the Cabinet PROFILE for the MONITOR OUTPUT, as well as for the built-in power amp of PowerHead and PowerRack. The Cabinet PROFILE stays active for the other outputs, including the MAIN OUTPUT.
This leads me to believe the Cabinet should be unaffected on the Main outs when "Monitor Cab Off" is selected.
There's another section that I'm unsure about on page 100:
QuoteYou might want to use Direct Amp PROFILEs which have cabinet module set to “Empty” for running an electric guitar into the Kone/Kabinet, without using a virtual cabinet in the cabinet module and feeding it to a mixing desk through the MAIN OUTPUT. In this case you still need to establish an active cabinet in the cabinet module and then save the Rig. If you don’t, your PROFILE will be interpreted as a Direct PROFILE and played back in full-range mode. To make this process easier, you could activate a cabinet and LOCK it, so that it stays active for all your Rigs. It doesn’t matter which cabinet you choose.
Is this suggesting that if I have a merge profile, I need to separate the Direct Amp Profile from the Cabinet Profile to achieve what I want instead of using the Merged profile? I have a hard time understanding what issue this section is attempting to address.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice!
