Hmm seems to work fine with a clean install on my laptop, but on my studio machine that has had previous versions of Rig Manager on it, it just will not connect at all.
OS X sees it in the USB list in System Profiler.

Anyone got this latest Beta and the latest Rig Manager Beta on OS X?
Can't get them to talk to each other (both have been working flawlessly for multiple releases).

Haven't posted for a while, but wanted to come back and say wow!
"Wow!"

Welcome - the KPA is the coolest thing I own and I own some cool things!
It just gets better.
-
I have reported >>>such behavior<<< to Support team and they have identified the bug. Will be probably fixed in next revision.
Btw check your PM @jamesnorth
Reporting back - yes confirmed that ducking at -5.0 is the issue in all the old rigs' Legacy Delay effect for me as well.
-
Rock on, thanks @skoczy.
-
@jamesnorth, may it be the case that Ducking for Delay is set to -5.0 in those "old" rigs? please check and report here.
I knew I read something about this somewhere, but couldn't recall. This thing is so in-depth!
I'll check it when I get to the studio and report back - thanks for responding @skoczy!

Hey guys - anyone else have problems with older rigs (The Amp Factory stuff) with the 'Legacy Delay' not working even if you delete the effect and put a new one in?
4.0.2 here.

With the attitude that you're more concerned about your parts and playing than the recording gear you're using - I'm certain you'll create that feeling again, @Monkey_Man.
One thing's for sure - the guitar sounds will be awesome!
-
@Monkey_Man - I know the theory, but I completely go by ear as well. The questions were really pointedly asking me to give a 'jazz theory' answer to them as that was the interview's angle.
Honestly - it all goes out the window in the studio. Nothing matters at all!
Mixing and arranging is all playing and parts ... pretty much nothing technical.
-
The horrible irony here is that I'm a non-drinker!
Great American beverages with red backgrounds and white script logos are my go-to at the end of a day at the studio.
-
Cheers guys - yeah good to get the Aussie user numbers up. Glad I had a chance to mention it ... after the interview we actually talked about it for ages and it got reviewed in the same issue of the mag.
-
Hey guys,
Have been on here for a while, but I ended up being interviewed by Australian Guitar Magazine recently and the Kemper gets a mention and a pic!

Thanks for this thread guys - bought an FS-6 based on the info provided by @paults. Works perfectly.
Playing my first gig for almost a decade with a client from the studio.
I think I should start doing some stretches ... I'm quite used to sitting in a very comfortable chair playing the guitar.

Proves that the Kemper is exactly as good as the person setting up the amp for recording (or the emulator it is profiling ;)).
Anyone suggesting the Axe has a 'better' tone when comparing like amps would probably also think that the variation in Kemper profiles of the same amp done by various people are 'better' or 'worse' than each other too.
The Kemper is at the mercy of those capturing the amp - the Axe is completely controlled. Easier to get to a good tone with a controlled environment ... but that doesn't mean it's better.
There is no ceiling on the Kemper, I don't think.

Have been using TAF Evil Robot on the last few albums here in the studio - very versatile on a lot of different guitars.
Love it with a Gretsch!

To change a guitar sound, in order:
1. Change the player
2. Change the guitar
3. Change the ampAndy can only influence number 3!

KRKs are occasionally fatiguing and fairly "American Rock" focused in their internal EQ. I owned some KRK V6 monitors quite a few years ago and in that 1k-3k range they are quite hyped.
4 inch speakers would also be a bit gutless in terms of the bottom end balancing out your brain's perception of the sound as well. Bigger speakers or a cabinet will give a better picture of what the guitar/amp combo sounds like.
In addition to this, SM57s are often talked about as great guitar cab mics, but they are also pretty fizzy when it comes to high gain stuff unless you really know what you are doing when making the profile. (Consistent to what others are saying here in that you really need to know what you are doing when making a profile!)
I can guarantee it won't be the Kemper!
Try out some of Andy's (The Amp Factory) @and44 profiles in the high gain realm.
