More of a Product request. IR box for Kemper Kab/Kone

oogywawa · May 14th 2023

So I love my Kemper, lets get that right out there. But I also like other guitar toys. Recently picked up a Tonex and was looking at my powered Kemper Kab. Would be great if Kemper could build a small IR box, kind of like a 2 Notes. Give it usb so I can load it up with Kone IRs. Give it midi so I can swap IRs from whatever device I am using.

This way, I can turn off the cab on ToneX, send it to the Kemper Kab,

Or maybe, just a small box that turns the Kemper Cab into a FRFR.

Basically asking Kemper to solve the limitations of the ToneX....interesting

Kemper cab is an frfr speaker.

The imprints for the Kemper kone simulate a guitar speaker.

Does Tonex provide IRs for the speaker?

It's NOT an FRFR speaker. It gets to an FRFR response thanks to the software adjustments done by the KPA software,

I'm not sure what you're after.

But couldn't you run the tonex into a line-level input on the kemper (e.g. setup for proper level reamping) and turn off everything apart from the cab section, and run that into the kemper Kab?

just really looking for a way to use the kemper kab with a smaller, pedal board type of rig. I have the toaster kemper.

Make a tonex capture of just the speaker imprints and then add whatever amp capture. I did this once with the quad cortex and it seemed to work ok

The Kone is *not* an FRFR speaker. It is a broadband speaker, which is a very different thing.

Without the Profiler's help, it will not behave at all like an FRFR.
