Using the beta 5.5.2 for my Profiler
Using the 2.1.56 (tried 2.1.41 too) for Rig Manager
Using OS High Sierra 10.13.6

Rig Manager does not see the Profiler.

* very good condition
* works nice with Kemper
* incl. power supply (europan)
* 170 euro + shipping (located in Vienna/Austria)

* very good condition

MacOSatch: When i look at your forum-name, i could imagine that you are a Satriani-Fan.
So what profile do you use?

Yes, I am a fan But I did not chase the tone of other people. I set my Kemper conservative way, clean/crunch/rhythm/lead for my band project. Satriani songs I play only at home and for this I use some Marshall JVM JS or Soldano profiles, not to much gain, delay, that is it.

- Dimarzio Paf Pro neck and Dimarzio Fred bridge
- The amp in the video is Peavey JSX

Whats about Expression Pedal with Toe Switch (Like Mission SP-1)? That would be 5th switch

fx loop of kemper: direct out = send, return = return

So you need to connect "direct out" (Kemper) to GUITAR IN of X3 and OUT/MONO of X3 to return (Kemper). Try this first, this way you have all effects in the loop.
If you want to use 4-cable-method, we talk again.

yes, it has only one output, but you can use something like this: http://www.thomann.de/at/palmer_cab_m_merger.htm

Also would like to have FX Loop (for Looper) after Delay/Reverb.
My typical use of looper is to work on solos or song ideas, so I record the rhythm guitar(s) without delay and play solo over it with delay.

why should be higher? because your tube amp goes louder til 4 and then is not louder only more compressed?
If you think it is not enough loud, you can set power amp boost in the output section higher (as I remember you have it at +3dB, try +6dB, it goes until +12dB).

AND READ THE MANUAL AND FAQ – IT IS EVERYTHING THERE!

and about volumes if you play Main-Out-To-FOH and your cab on the stage:
- you can unlink your Main Out Volume from Master Volume and set it as desired (I set it at -20dB and have good results with different PAs)
- you let volume of Monitor Out linked to Master Volume, so that you can adjust your cab volume on stage without "disturbing" the FOH-volume

look at the page 2 upper part of the screen, there are checkboxes

push page buttons, it is on other page

master: you shall link your master to the speaker/monitor output --> in the output section
effects: you shall set monitor out to "master mono" --> in the output section

regarding your cab, if I saw right, you have cab with 2 x 8 ohm. If you connect it as you did – with Y-splitter, you connect it in parallel, so the load is 4 ohm (not 16 ohm). Perhaps can you set your cab at 16 Ohm mono and connect it with only one speaker cable (not guitar cable). And, speaker out on Kemper (red output, says 8-16 Ohm) is MONO, so it is not possible to play stereo with built-in-power amp (only with separate stereo power amp)

IMHO Mesa output is for parallel connection. So if you have 8 Ohm cab and connect another 8 Ohm cab you will get 4 Ohm.

I still have 2.6 installed, but I turned LFC off. The profiles that I use (some of old ones from LL & TAF, I do not profile by myself a lot) sound better without LFC for me. With LFC they are sort of "lifeless". The lower strings, lower position at high gain profiles sounds perhaps more tight, but the rest is not so good (for my ears) as 2.5. I am talking about playing powerhead through guitar cab at low volume. I did not try it at live volume yet.

I tried my standard profiles at the rehearsal (2 guitarists, both Kemper; bass, drums, vocal) and noticed the same sound differences between LFC off and LFC on. My profiles are on the bright side and cut very well through the live band mix with 2.5. With 2.6 LFC ON they had definitively less mids and more disappeared in the band mix. Solo sound was not very present as usual (Soldano Profile) and sort of thin. So LFC off.

I had the fx loop error too – I am using Eventide H9 there – VERY strong volume increase, I thought my loudspeakers will explode (4x12 300W Marshall Cab)!

when you set "monitor cab off" than let cab On on the front of the Kemper.

I hope you let the cab sim ON in the Amp Section (three buttons on front EQ+AMP+CAB) and disable the cabs in Output section ("Monitor Cab OFF")

Yes, it happen from the very beginning of the KPA. Not a big issue anyway, only happen when you change output preset or at the beginning after the start up.
