Anyone run a powered Kemper into an eight ohm load?
Kemper's Kabinet has a four ohm load, and has a built in Series connection, to provide an eight ohm load when using two Kabinets. So, no problem.

Are you connecting to the front inputs or the effects return of the JC?

I use a Kabinet live, but just go Direct to the PA for rehearsal.

Display MoreI had a short break to relief my head from the noise and tried to readjust the output EQ to match the sample from BayouTexan.
I'm somehow right with my bass correction on -4.0 to -4.2 db. If I add some mids(0.2-0.3) and highs (0.5-0.7) I also get mor of this lively , more "there" tone.
DonPetersen And the Mars Golub profiles sounds also way better
Now i went through a bunch of profiles and somehow they all make much more sense. I was used that nearly all the high gain profiles sounds shit, because they are a boomy mess of mud. With my settings, they make way more fun. But, I'm not getting a 100% identical to Bayous reamping.
And I ask myself: Why is the basic EQ from my Kemper so odd?
It can depend on one or more of the following: the sound of your headphones or monitors and room or guitar cabinet and how you have your pickups adjusted.

You are using a Bass Profile with Transpose, so, that may be different than with a bass.
I suggest turning down the Rig Volume.

But I don't need it in such a fine granular way. I do not have to distinguish between the slots. It's enough on the level of performances/songs.
If you use one Performance per song, it is not necessary to program a PC change to transmit from the Profiler in each Performance Slot. You can send the PC message from the first Performance Slot you will use for each song.

What style of music? What kind of amplifier sounds do you like?
How loud is the drummer?
Do you send a line out to the PA, or use stage volume only?
-
When an issue is shared by almost all profiles, the issue is likely to be related to what you use to listen to your Profiler, or Output Settings.
headphones, studio monitors, full range cabinet, guitar cabinet? Let us know the specific brands/models.
what are your Output Settings? It may be helpful to post pictures of each Output Menu screen.Also, what guitars are you using? Fresh strings? Are the tone controls turned up?
-
Look at the inputs of Focusrite channels that are connected to your Kemper Outputs. They are likely set too low of an input level. Or, the channels for your Computer Audio are set too high.

As a supplement to my previous comment, you can really use any amp with a similar amount of gain, as long as you listen to those playing dynamics and the effects that I mentioned.
-
Since you already have a Strat style guitar, I suggest searching the rig exchange for the word “Gilmour,”, and starting with the closest rig you find. Edit the game, so that it seems close. And listen closely to the effects, including the timing of any delays.Then, perhaps the most difficult part, is to listen very closely to the way he plays that solo, including his picking hand dynamics, and any pick ups which changes. If you do that, I’m sure you’ll get there.

Main Outputs to your interface/studio monitors. Use the monitor out to connect to your the effects return of your amplifier. (Set the output source for your main output to master stereo. Set the output source for your monitor output to master mono. Enable the checkbox for monitor speaker off.)
-
We need many more rigs on RE.
agreed! But, play guitar more than audition rigs
-
If you are going to send a mono or stereo Line to the PA/FOH, use the Master Output(s) for that.
I suggest using the Monitor Output (with Output Source = Master Mono) for a powered FRFR speaker, or for an external power amp and speaker. If you have a powered Profiler, use the Speaker Output (it shares the Monitor Output settings).
With a FRFR Cabinet, you will want to have the "Monitor Cabinet Off" checkbox UNCHECKED, so the Cabinets in the Profiles can be heard in your speaker. Whether or not you need to use HIgh and Low Cut largely depends on the sound of your speaker.

SD is out-of-stock on most of their TremBucker models.
I like to buy production model Duncans used - they will pretty much always be worth what you pay for them.
-
I like the JB in mahogany body guitars, but, I prefer the Duncan Custom Custom in a Strat. For me, it is a little smoother, with not quite as much gain. But, you can move it closer to the strings to volume match it with a JB.
-
While that is absoluelety true for effect presets, it is not for other presets (input, output, amp, cabinet, stack).
Thank you for the clarification!
-
What I need to know now is how to get unwanted amps OFF of that preset list.
All Kemper Factory Presets (including the Amplifier Presets) are included in the Operating System. They cannot be deleted.
-
You can store the amplifier section from any rig as a preset. Click on the rig rig in rig manager, while the Profiler is connected. Drag and drop The amplifier section of the rig into the “All Presets/My Profiler” folder. You have just created a new amplifier preset.
-
They are automatically loaded into your Profiler with each OS update.
When your Profiler is connected to Rig Manager, you can see them in the "All Presets/My Profiler" folder.
