Hey, I uploaded my Two rock classic reverb signature profile today in rig exchange. It’s under Nashville East. Use it clean or boosted with a 808. Let me know if you dig it.
-Dan
I loaded in your profile! I like it! it sounds good

Specifically this song right here, just curious if anybody had any tips or guidance on how to get to this -ish tone

Actually folks...You've convinced me to keep it, and this is the final answer. I am not sending it back, I've never been a quitter and I'm not about to start now. I'm not giving up.
Get the matching Kemper kabinet

I still think you need to unlink the Master and Monitor output volumes so you can crank the Master to get a strong signal to the board and still be able to control the Kone volume.
If they are unlinked how do you control the volume of the two signals?
Sometimes I turn it up, sometimes I turn it down. If they are unlinked, wouldnt I have to go into the menu to manually turn the two down ?
Or would rig volume control it?

I moved the kemper from the stereo 1/4" connections on channel 3/4 to individual channels 1 and 2 on the mixer (plugging into the middle of the XLR) and the volume problems are fixed.
Does anybody know why this is? Is the mixer defective?
-
Okay, I have turned off the EFX on the mixer and that phantom effect is gone.
and now I do get some sound coming from the monitors. However, I have to turn the "gain" and the "level" on my mixer for that channel BOTH to max.
In addition, I have to turn the "Main Volume" of the kemper significantly higher than the "Monitor Volume" as well in order to get the sound to be equalized. Is there yet another setting I'm missing in the kemper that is causing this difference in output?

Display MoreHi, guitarchiq,
Okay - you've narrowed it down to the mixer and we know the Kemper is working as it should.
Please post a link to the owner's manual for the mixer and tell us exactly how you have things connected
- from the Kemper to the mixer (what inputs)
- from the mixer to the Kemper (what outputs)
Thanks,
ST
Here is the manual - Peavey PV BT 6 - https://peavey.com/ItemFiles/Manual/118741_30948.pdf
The main output left and right of the kemper 1/4" with balanced cables are going into the mixer on channel 3 and 4.
The main out of the mixer is going to the Adam A5x monitors.
-
Zappledan makes a good point.
Please connect the Kemper directly to the Adam A5X inputs. If that sounds good, then the problem is in the signal path of the peavey mixer (or it could be something silly in the pinout assignments in the cables).
I tried a different set of balanced 1/4" TRS cables and the same thing happened.
Then I tried connecting the the kemper directly to the Adam A5X using a 1/4" to XLR cable (skipping the peavey) as you two suggested and it worked. The sound was the same as my guitar, and the delay effect was gone.
Why is this the case? What can I do? the mixer is pretty key to my setup and Id like to have the kemper routed to the mixer first.

Hi, guitarchiq,
Please tell us about the connections from the Kemper to the monitors.
Ideally you are using XLR cables from the Kemper XLR Main Outputs to the Adam A5X XLR inputs.
What are you doing?
On the Kemper - what outputs?
What cables are you using? - please be specific.
On the Adam A5X - what inputs?
I'm using two balanced quarter inch TRS cables, not XLR. So where you drew those orange lines, I used the ones to the right of those. The orange button is not depressed.
The cables are then going to the input of a peavey mixer. And then mixer monitor output is going to the the Adam A5x input.

What didnt you like about it?
I received mine on Friday, and it SUCKED. it sounded terrible. like disgusting. I was going to sell it. Every rig sounded super fuzzy and fake as hell. (running through monitors)
I picked up a Kemper Kabinet on yesterday, I updated the OS. Did a shit load of tweaking, reading and watching the videos. and Now i think it actually sounds pretty good.
-
Perhaps you have the -12dB box checked and have too low an output level?
It's not checked. I'm so confused as to the delay that is in the monitors. There is no delay in the kabinet.
-
The green shell of my kemper power head was dented in shipping. Does Kemper sell replacement shells? Or any other solutions.
I saw the zilla shells but, would be nice to just get an original replacement shell.

when slot is active, long press pops up Copy&Paste menu. So possible states, when you start from inactive slot are:
1. Short press: toggle slot on/off
2. Long press: slot menu
3. When in slot menu: long press activates copy&paste.
BTW, this works in all profilers, it is not Stage-specific.
Ah, right on! Thank you for your patience, just got the kemper on Friday and still learning it all.
-
Specifically when he comes in at the A major chord at 56 seconds, directly linked below.
Anybody have any tips on what this tone even is, or how to dial it in on a kemper?
I am playing on a PRS Silver Sky and Chris' guitar in the performance is a Fender Jazzmaster (I think).
This is a close up ( I think ), of his amp.

Hi, guitarchiq,
Do you have powered monitors? If they are passive monitors (no built-in amplifiers), then you'll need to get a stereo amp to power the monitors.
ST
They are powered monitors, Adam A5X
-
I messed around with it some more and put both Main Output and Monitor Output set to "Master Stereo" and now sound is coming out of the monitors.
But there is still a delay effect applied to it, which I don't have on there?
-
Press the OUTPUT button to get to the Output options. There are several pages of options there. The first page has Output Source. Your Main Output should be set to Master Stereo. Your Monitor Output should be set to Master Mono.
This is exactly how it is set. No sound.
I get the sound of my guitar in the kab, but the monitors is just a faint sound of a delay.
-
Buttons are not touch sensitive. Short press activates/deactivates slots. Long press enters menu.
Sometimes the copy menu pops up when I push the buttons, how/when does this get in there?
-
I've been fiddling with the settings all night and I can't seem to have sound come out of the cabinet and the monitor speakers at the same time.
My previous amp had stereo and had two speakers and it sounded really lush. So I want to run sound from my cabinet and also monitor speakers at the same time to get that same lushness.
I have the camper kabinet connected to the speaker out on the Kemper powerhead. And I have monitors connected to the "main output" L and R.
No matter what I do, I only get either the sound coming from only the Kabinet, or a mix of sound from the Kabinet and only the delay mix/effect coming from the monitors.
I don't know why this is because I do not have delay turned on at all.
-
When I light touch some of the buttons, for example the 'amplifier' button they light up but nothing happens on the screen.
When I hard push the button the menu for amplifier comes up.
I can't find any documentation that claims the buttons are touch sensitive, do I have a defective unit?
I feel like sometimes when I push the buttons different things happen when I'm pushing the same button
