Put an fx loop in the A slot 100% wet, then plug your synth into the return input. That's what I do.

Nice playing from the band but those vocals..
-
Chorus, flanger, phaser etc. Just out of curiosity, anyone tried to do it as a mad professor experiment to see what comes out the other end?

You can get a B Stock for about 1300 euros with Thomann and of course full warranty.
Mine was a B Stock, it was like new.Same here. Can't beat that 3 year warranty.
-
That Tascam could act as a s/pdif to aes/ebu converter if you run into clock problems as well.
-
Just getting a USB recording interface that has an s/pdif input would be cheaper than that hosa? You can get one for under a hundred euros from thomann.
Edit: Couldn't find the cheaper ones anymore, but something like this for example:
-
The number of effects in the KPA has increased but there are still some basic things missing:1) No Spring Reverb effect
Isn't the Matchbox Sproing a spring reverb?
-
I know it isn't what you want to hear, but I also chased after that elusive "synth sounds from guitar" tone for over a decade and finally broke down and bought an actual synth. (Arturia Minibrute) Sooo much better tone and flexibility. And you get to learn a new instrument in the process.

The Kemper is not a Lonestar.
This. Did you try it with a Lonestar profile and tweaked it a little? Even then it'll sound different since it's a miced sound with a different cab on the Kemper.
Then again, op didn't specify his setup. Is the KPA amplified the same way through the same cab as the Lonestar with the cab sim turned off? Or through studio monitors or what? First eliminate the variables, then I think you'll be able to get closer to the Lonestar sound.
-
^Yup, as stated before I already got it working.
-
Next time you go to install a FW, try letting it completely finish rather than assuming it has locked up and terminating power.
A few of my updates have seemed to stop at the dark green screen that says Kemper-Amps.com, but then it resumes.For how long? I waited 5 minutes.
Next time, try not to assume that I just pulled the plug immediately. Thanks.

I tried turning off all fx before trying to downgrade the fw, still got no sound with all fx off. Also going back to the profile that was working before the sound disappeared changed nothing.
EDIT: I got it to install fw 1.1.0. but it still freezes on startup. Progress bar goes up to full, then it disappears, screen goes back to dark green still showing the Kemper Profiling Amplifier text.
EDIT2: Resetting system settings got it working again. Yay. No new fw for me in a while, phew.
Here's help if anyone else gets the same problem:

Just happened to me, input works, tuner works, output led flashes, but no sound. Reboot didn't help. Not even hiss comes out.
Worked fine on power up, switched to a different rig with the rig button and sound went away. I was in the process of copy-pasting my fx loop from the x-spot to a different rig.
I still got the "shutoff fart sound" through my monitors when powering down so it's most likely a software problem. I'll downgrade the fw and report back.
EDIT: While downgrading the fw (1.1.1. the one I had previously), it went to 100% completion, rebooted, then got stuck when it normally turns on completely. Screen turned from bright green back to dark green. Still showed the text kemper-amps.com etc. but no progress bar. Didn't power off with the knob, so I had to pull the plug. Now it won't turn on at all (with or without the usb stuck to the back).

Interesting lyrics but seriously the guitars sound fine,good one.
Our vocalist is an interesting fellow. Seriously though I haven't even listened to the lyrics throroughtly so I don't know what he's singing about.I guess my brain treats dm vocs as a percussion instrument, lol.

It takes forever to reply on HC, so I'll just post here.
It's the SAVAGE1 profile on Rig Exchange. There's also a SAVAGE2 profile with only the SM57, the 1 is a mix of 57 and a Beyer M201.
-
Finally got back to recording vocs for the album, here's the latest raw mix:
-
I tried to get something similar as the bass line synth in the Blade Runner theme out of the Kemper.
I used the "Micro Modular 09" profile and some octave up, octave down, chorus, reverb and delay in the loop.
Rotary and compressor in A and B fx spots.
Uploaded a new better one.

Just to make clear, this is guitar, not a synth into the Kemper.
-
Strange, never had anything like that happen, with or without a boost in front.
Did you try if the feedback issue persists with a different guitar or cable? Do you have any pedals in the loop or before the KPA when this happens? Just to eliminate variables one by one.
