Love the profiles!!! Thank you!

Yes you can have them as global settings, or for each individual preset. I use global. So every one of my presets that I switch to has the exact same stomps assigned to the exact same switch. You can set it up exactly as described in your post. I have mine set up similar
Top row Mod/Delay/Reverb/Tuner/Tap
2nd row Stomp B/ C/ D/ X / Wah
First row 5 rigsIll probably change it when the Mission SP 2 gets here. Once you set the switches the way you want them, and have it set to global, you never have to assign them again, unless you want to change it up.

AWESOME!!!! Let me know if you need any help, though you are probably way more crafty with midi then Ill ever be!

No I was responding to Snakepit. Lol I know mine is a Midi Raider

http://www.zzounds.com/item--SKBXRACK4. There is about 2" on either side. There is not alot of room for anything else. I figured Id have plenty of room on the back side for stuff, but when you run cables in there for 2 stereo outs, and a monitor out, you cant really put anything on the back side. My wireless is super small (Line 6 G 30) and it wont even fit on the back side. This isnt a real deep rack space. Which is really what I kinda like about it. The Kemper "just" fits in there top to bottom and there is about 2" left on either side.

Thanks brother. Btw, if anyone does get the Midi Raider and needs help with it, Id be more than happy to help. I can help set you up through Skype or some other IM service. Im a noob to midi, but this thing just isnt that hard to set up.

Sorry guys about the quality of the video. I forget sometimes how dark my studio is. When I get the rest of my rig later this week, Ill move it to a lighter room so you guys can see more detail of what I got going on. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks Mr. Pollock (I hope Im spelling that right) for your photo of your rig. It inspired me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qx02RbU8muw&feature=youtu.be

It works perfectly. Im a midiot. I programmed it in 20 minutes. Stomp assignments, banks, expression pedals. Super easy. Im going to shoot a small video of my almost complete rig today and post it here as some have been asking how you travel with a Kemper (bag/ case etc) I was planning on doing just some photos, but I think a quick video maybe a little more insightful. Im still waiting for my RCF NX 10 to arrive as well as my Mission SP 2 and Pedaltrain 2 which I will be attaching the Midi Raider, Rocktron Hex Pedal (volume) and Mission SP2 (wah) to. The Pedal Train 2 comes with a nice soft case as well. I was going to wait til it all gets here to do a video, but I think I may just do a super quick one today as there is alot of interests in cases and how individuals set up there equipment for live use.
The only downside to the Midi Raider is you have to name each preset if you want it to say what your Kemper says. Its a little annoying but not hard. The manual says it has a remote setting where it copies what the device says, but it also says it only applies to Rocktron products. I havent tried it yet, but maybe it will work with Kemper. Otherwise you have to tap footswitched to name the preset........gets old. But its just a minor annoyance.

Ive mounted mine in a 4 rack SKB case (Mr Pollocks idea) and setting it on an amp stand. Ill post pics tomorrow.

Im using Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 DSP. It works great ans has SPDIF.

I highly recommend the Midi Raider. I have an RCF NX 10 SMA on the way. Im hoping it is as good as the 12". I dont need tons of volume, so the 10" seemed more practical for my situation.

Yep, I came from tube amps. Love them and get a kick from comparing how close the kpa direct profiles get.
I got direct profiles from those amps of 5 sounds which I use live and am now using the KPA with a fratomic power amp and my evh 4x12 speaker and am loving it so far.
Ive also taken some profiles of the amps with the 5153 cab and saved the cab so its a simple matter to go FRFR (as I have a couple of times) if I want to.
Ive been really very very impressed with this setup. Ive not quite yet got the profiles perfect for where I want them but Im a lot closer than Ive ever been with anything other than my real amps, and most importantly the KPA had all the grunt, snarl and unpredictability of the real thing. I love it.
Im really looking forward to a matching power amp so I can just turn up at the upcoming summer festival gigs with my guitar, my kemper lunchbox and a small pedalboard (I hate midi in a live context so it is a couple of Boss footswitches for profiles up/down, delay on/off and 'x' on/off.) I have my wah, phase 90, ts808 and evh flanger in front of the KPA.
I really like the inbuilt fx but am not keen to use midi footswitches until the KPA one comes out.
On a slightly different note I am arranging over the next couple of weeks to set up a small collection of amps in a local 500 seater concert hall where with the help of the venues engineer and a local friend of mine who is a well travelled pro live sound engineer we hope to sort a good few gig ready direct to pa profiles (as opposed to studio ones).
If it goes well then of course I will share them on the exchange.I think if you gave Rocktrons Midi Raider a shot you may be pleasantly surprised. I just got it today and programmed it in about 20 mins. Im a total midiot and it was very simple to use. Super easy to set up stomps, presets, etc. The only downside to it is you have to name the patch on the Midi Raider if you want it to match what it says on the Kemper. Kind of annoying, but not hard. I thought about shooting a tutorial video on it, but its so easy, I dont really think its even necessary.

Do you by chance know the model# of it?

Im interested as well....how do you have it attached? And what brand is the rack? Looks like this one? http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/GR4S/
