Hey guys, my band ThisFire released a new EP last week, it's called 'Demons'. Although there's actually no Kemper on it (I had good intentions to use it but in the end just used my trusty Orange Rocker 30 head!) please check it out if you get a chance!

We're streaming it on soundcloud at

We've also done a quick video for the lead song from the EP "Wrong Things" over on YouTube:

We're a UK bank based in West Somerset, originally from Minehead. The EP was recorded at Yak Music Studio in Wellington, highly recommended if you're in the west country! Cheers, Ben.

No problem, hope it helps!

I think I see what you mean, as a side note, have you set the quick button to jump to snapshots? I found that saved a lot of scrolling.

There is a bug in the latest firmware, but I noticed it a few firmwares back. If you boot the kemper into browser mode with the Current Author filter selected the browse pool is empty. You have to adjust the filter to something else to get rigs to be available to select again.

I've not had this problem yet, but it seems the easiest way is to purchase an RJ45 repair clip. do a search, very easy to find.
I hope this helps

i bought some of these, they work fine http://www.clipfix.com/

@Joptunes Lovely demo, also is that a PRS Dragon I spy there?

Really, really impressed by these new delays, a massive thanks Kemper team, once again proves what an investment the KPA is.

I haven't tried the presets yet but just playing through the new types and messing about I'm very, very impressed! Whatever Ck announces at NAMM I promise I will wait patiently for no matter how long it takes, this was well worth the wait!

Agreed too. Some amazing, incredibly impressive stuff going on in the KPA but this is kinda irritating!

I'm sure delays will come when the KPA team feel they are ready. I trust the KPA team and am sure they will make it worth the wait

Agree 100%, but I can't blame people for getting a little impatient when we are teased with them sooooo far in advance. I'm torn - I love that we get a preview of what's next, but it's a shame there's such a big gap between reveal and beta.

Im not in front of my kemper right now, but check in the outputs menu that the full chain is being sent to the headphone output and not just the preamp. I think it's on page 2.

I think this is a great idea.

I'd love to be able to be able to use the remotes fx footswitches to send midi cc or pp. If each midi 'fx' block could send both an 'on' pc or cc value when the fx is activated and an 'off' pc or cc value when deactivated it would be incredible because rather than just looping in a pedal with the loop fx block we currently have we could toggle presets on a midi enabled pedal or other external gear too.

Wow, great post. I have a Zilla very similar to yours but loaded with a V30 and a CL80, amazing cabs and look great with the green tolex. Must be quite rare to get two guys using Zillas with the kemper with the same tolex and options! Love the vertical orientation of yours, looks great.

I'll pay €10 for an editor just so I don't have to keep reading threads requesting one! In all seriousness though I am pretty surprised we haven't seen one by now. It isn't top of my wishlist, in fact I'm surprised how important it is to most people, but it would certainly be useful, even just from a managing presets point of view.

Maybe weird suspicion, but maybe profile *.kipr files DO NOT have a marker/flag that they are DI profiles, then it would be impossible to do any action depending on the profile type (like loading default cab for DI profiles).
It would be also impossible to show only DI profiles by soft button 1.
Just thinking...

This could be the case, but it would be disappointing and IMO a massive oversight by team Kemper who consistently are one step ahead. When 2.8 and then 3.0 came out the DA/Merged profiles were the killer feature, I'm still surprised 18 months on we can't filter just these profiles. A default cab could be really useful as a feature for sure.

Sorry to hear that soundroi. I've come across the same thing myself, I bought an Orange Rocker 30 a few months back as a gigging amp, really dig it so tried making some DA profiles and I had a similar type thing: lots of horrendous low end and clips the output straight away. Using a Behringer Ultra GI100. I may have been doing something wrong, but I've profiled quite a few times before with no problems. I wonder if others have the same experience with certain amps, the Rocker 30 is a common amp and at last check no DI/DA profiles on the exchange.

+1, and if filters are being added it would be a great time to add 'Merged' too.

It may be me, but it seems like since the latest firmware (maybe even since 4.0?) the remote is a fair bit slower to boot. Not awfully long, but I had noticed it.

Same here, very frustrating. Gigged the amp instead Friday because I was a bit worried about it.

I find I have to crank it to a similar volume through my 2x12, anywhere between 5.5 to around 8ish, where as my Orange cuts through really well at a much lower volume.

What will be really interesting is when I get around to profiling the Orange - to see if those profiles cut through at a lower volume than other profiles do.

A lot of commercial merged profiles, to me, sound too dense and full bodied as stock through my cab. I made an output preset for my cab for live use, which has a lot of the monitor bass rolled back and a little bit extra trebble and and good chunk more mids, and this helped me sit a lot better. You could just set and forget, but if I get a chance to play louder on my own I have another preset I call up to put the monitor EQ bass mids and trebble back again.

Type knob problem is officially fixed! Loving the morphing clear module button too, great update!
