I have a Quintessence pedal in my effects loop. To me it just sounds much better than the Kemper for harmony and octave playing.

Lately I've been trying to re-create a sound similar to Page's solo for Fool In The Rain, where I've read he used a MXR Blue box for the tone. The actual song I want to cover is Rose In The Heather by Nazareth, which sounds somewhat close. So far I've come up with using a Kemper Fuzz and analog octaver, along with a flanger. Just wondering if anyone has attempted the JP Fool In The Rain tone?

I've also noticed some noise problems and at first thought it was a bad cord or connection.

Yes, shielded cable for sure

True, a speaker’s quoted impedance is only a nominal value (measured at kHz I think) as each speaker has its own impedance curve. However, even the current power meter only uses a fixed nominal impedance so presumably the OP’s request shouldn’t be any less accurate than at present.
True, and also most power meters read RMS AC voltage. Back (way back) in the day when I worked in engineering at Electro-Voice we used 1kHz for impedance and most distortion spec's. When EV was eventually acquired by Mark IV Industries and Midas/Klark Teknik, DDA and Dynacord became sister companies they started up the Mark IV Pro Audio Group, where I worked for seven years servicing and supporting the KT lineup and Midas/DDA consoles. Those were the days!

Ikm pretty dumb when it comes to electronics but the manual states thate the power amp delivers X watts at Y impedance. Presumably this is because current in the Power Formula is dependent on voltage and impedance. Therefore, power would change with impedance.
Impedance is mainly frequency dependent.

One way would be to do a sine wave sweep and manually plot the curve

Personally I would like to see a noise generator as an effect module. "A" weighting, pink and white noise selectable. It's how I set my rigs initial level in performance mode, that along with a calibrated SPL meter.

sorry my bad-I made a typo. The version that contains the fix is 3.2.72
Yes

the issue you are reporting is fixed in the latest update of Rig Manager (3.1.72)
No

It would be nice for Kemper to provide a software tool that could allow parsing of the backup files. I'm sure they or whoever they farmed out Rig Manager to has one. Or better yet, provide the file format so we can develop our own.

Agree on all points but just pointing out that it does affect compression incase anyone does use it.
however, you comment above does als raise a good point about compressor types. I hate the “vintage pedal” type sound (Dynacomp/Ross make me puke) it would be so great to see some other compressor styles (including an 1176) added to the KPA. The only compressor stomp I ever managed to like was my Cali76 (an 1176 style pedal.The Cali76 is a nice pedal. I'm currently using a Boss CP-1X in front on the Kemper Stage and always keep it on. Love the sound of that pedal!

Sure thing, here's a couple. Ignore the clutter
Its certainly nothing special, and there are probably better ways to fix the issue, but when I was troubleshooting it, this helped me figure it out, and I just left it in place.
Just curious, which ground did you connect the aluminum foil to?
-
Iv'e been thinking about this lately also, or an open-source rig manager. I would be very surprised if Kemper doesn't farm out Rig Manager to a third party.

This popped up after performing a backup to USB. I had to do a hard flush, then I repeated the backup and everything went fine. Possibly an error reading the USB?

When I go to save a Performance to a local library an error is displayed when a like performance already exists. Is Rig Manager simply looking for a performance with the same name or does is execute some type of checksum validation?
