Kemper Profiler powered head, with latest version.

I pretty much use a compressor for all my rigs, and is usually the first effect in the lineup. And I like to set it up so one can barely tell it's there, but tweak it on a given song or venue. Two questions.

• How can I set up a compressor, set it once, store it, then re-use it as the first effect in a lineup in any rig? Almost like a universal effect.
• How can I use the compressor in a rig without assigning it to an on/off button since it will always on for me. However, I may want to tweak it for different gigs so I will need it accessible and controllable with knobs. (I'm able to do this on my Line 6 Pod HD500X, so hopefully I can do it in the Kemper)

TIA

If you don’t need the additional functionality of a separate app you can achieve what you need in Rig Manager. You can set up folders in RM for each band/gig/etc and copy what you need to your Profiler as required.

If the actual profiles are the same and only the orders change then you can leave everything you will need on the KPA but reorder by dragging and dropping songs.

It will definitely work without anything external but as others have pointed out sometimes a specific app can make the whole thong much simpler and more efficient.

This was the answer I was looking for. I don't want (or at least prefer not to need) a separate app. I wanna to this in RM.

Yes the profiles will the same, since essentially to me, profile = song, so I'm essentially reordering songs, and add/delete them. And I have set up a folder (one for now) under the "Performances" menu, and called it "RaleighBrewing." But how do I "load" the "RaleighBrewing" folder onto my Kemper. Or is it already there, correct? If so how can I "recall" the "RaleighBrewing" folder on the Kemper? I do not bring a laptop to the gigs.

TIA

With the Rig Manager, is it possible to organize performances for specific gigs? For example, I may have 30 performances for "Mac's Tavern" gig, 40 for "Raleigh Brewing" etc. So on each venue that I gig at, I'll just load their corresponding performances onto my Kemper Profiler?

kemper remote vs fcb 1010 :

- price : fcb, 3fcb = 1remote
- plug n play : remote but ......you can find sys file with the good programmation for the fcb. it's like to learn how to play guitar, if you want, you learn, if you learn, you can do every thing you want.
- can be use with other gear : fcb
- expression pedals : fcb, 2 times.
- looper : remote but the looper isn't a good looper so, it's not very important.
- bugs : fcb = no bug

the only con for the fcb is the 10banks limitation.

If I've had the Kemper for awhile and was already used to it, I would've gotten the FCB since then I would've had more time to learn it (I'm a geek so that was not the problem). Right now I want more time dedicated for the Kemper itself, which is days old to me.

Oh, I misunderstood your first post, thanks. Yeah I used MAIN OUT and it sounds more like my Kemper Kone sound.

Quote from Burkhard

Kemper Kone Mode activates a sound optimization for the Kemper Kone chassis regardless if you run it in full-range or Speaker Imprint mode and how you set parameters like Directivity, Sweetening, Bass Boost and others. The simple rule is: don't use MONITOR OUT and SPEAKER OUTPUT for different purposes. The SPEAKER OUTPUT is like the MONITOR OUTPUT, just with more juice.

This is why I'm perplexed. I am using, or want to use, MONITOR OUT and SPEAKER OUT for the SAME purpose, but somehow, my MONITOR OUT doesn't sound the same (sounds harsh - see my elaboration on "harsh" on previous post). I (think) I set them up the same - same EQ (flat), Monitor Cab on, etc.

how to create copies of a performance is explained in the Rig Manager manual on page 23.

You can access the manual from the help menu in Rig Manager.

Thanks, I see it now. Hold the "Alt" key (Mac) while dragging-and-dropping to another performance row.

Quote from vjelen

I know but the question was how to do it WITHOUT Rig Manager:

Fair nuff. And this is why you don't hijack a discussion.

Quote from vjelen

... you can find this and more info in the Main Manual 8.5, chapter "Performance Mode", page 283 and further ...

The Kemper Profiler manual doesn't talk about Rig Manager.

Quote from Kemper Support #1

load the performance you want to copy and press Store and select a target performance with the destination parameter in the Store menu.

This is in Rig Manager? I RTFM'ed BTW, and didn't see it there either.

I ended up getting the Kemper remote since I thought the positives outweighed the negatives, including the price. And I'm glad I did since it was truly plug-and-play.

I use the "performance" feature to represent a song, i.e., a song is a performance. On some performances, I use the same rigs, but tweak the effects. Is there a way to copy a performance onto a new performance.

I'm not talking about copying a performance between MyProfiler and My Local Library folders, I can do that.

TIA

Ooops, someone please move this to the Rig Manager forum.

I have the latest OS on all - latest OSX, Kemper firmware, and Rig Manager. Using a Kemper Powerhead + foot controller.

I can create a performance on Rig Manager. The issues begin when I drag-and-drop a rig from MyProfiler folder onto a a slot in my performance.

1. Sometimes, Rig Manager just freezes after I drag-and-drop a rig onto a slot, that is, the letters on the right pane are just greyed out, and stay that way.
2. I've connected my Kemper foot controller to my Powerhead. Sometimes when I drag-and-drop the rig to a slot, the effects button assignments are ported over, but sometimes not, and I have to assign the effect to their corresponding buttons on the foot controller. (In Browser mode, the buttons are assigned to the foot controller.)

Anyone have these issues?

Yes, I find it convenient.

Yes for live I have the Peterson StroboClip with the sweetened tunings.

Hahahaha! Thank you!

I'm in the Cary NC USA area. If you're around my neck of the woods, please feel free to PM and maybe we can physically exchange ideas.

I was actually surprised that the Kemper Profiler doesn't have this feature.

From the link I just see the speaker now?

Seymour Duncan SD 700 uses the Icepower module as well. Pretty much same/same.

I see.
