Hi. just got my Kemper today. I understand from the forum that there is currenlty no way to connect the Kemper to a laptop thorugh the USB connections for managing the profiles (or anything else), but wondered whether the USB-B port is there so this facility can be added in a future upgrade of the firmware. Anyone know the answer to this one?
USB-B connection - what is it for?

Thats the rectangular USB-A connector (Host), he means the square USB-B connector (Device) to the right of it.
I dont own a KPA, but It doesnt seem to have a use at the moment, could likely be used for connection to a computer for editing and such if it is implemented in the future. -
A long time ago I've read somewhere that they been considering about a computers keyboard connection. I liked that idea. I guess they put the idea on ice for now or cancelled it at all.

Thanks for clarifying that Neonknight. Yes I mean the small square one (USB-B) that is normally used to connect a device to the USB-A port (flat rectanguler one) of a computer. Just wanting to confirm that this is fully wired up and ready to be ativiated in a future firmware update.
No problem, i dont know how it is connected and whats going to happen to it, thats up to Kemper to answer. However the standardised way to use an USB-B port is to connect a device (in this case it could be the KPA) to a computer which has the USB-A port (Host). One would think the idea is to connect the KPA to the computer in some way in the future (speculation). -

A keyboard connects to the rectangilar USB-A port (host) and not to the square USB-B port (device). It could be a cool idea with a keyboard, i would prefer to have a computer editor though and that would if realised use the USB-B port to connect to a computer.
