Beautiful! What model?
Sorry, I meant to put that in. It's a Gibson L5 CES Wes Montgomery. I've had it since the mid-late 90s.

Haven't had this out for a long while, but had a great time with it tonight.
Hi, LoyaltyLP
Looper Issue
Press the System Button
Navigate to page 12/18
Press soft button 4 (top right above the display)
Change Location Loc (press the button)
- Input => sound will change when you switch rigs
- Output => sound will not change when you switch rigs
Output issue
Press the Output button
Navigate to page 1/10
Check the settings for
Main Output (you don't need to change this because you already like the sound)
Monitor Output (try setting this to Master Mono)
If that doesn't help, please tell us what happens when you make these changes. Maybe someone else can help.

Here's a 2019 PRS 594 Singlecut Semi-hollow Artist Package with Paua inlays and Ebony fretboard.
It was being sold as "mint", and I must say it looks completely un-played.
Oh, that is breathtaking. Congratulations.
I have one in my shopping cart on the Kemper site. I'm just waiting to hear back about how they handle duty and taxes shipping to Canada. If it ends up going through a broker, there's no telling what it will cost to actually get it to my door.
Has anyone in Canada ordered directly from Kemper? How did it go?

Again, thank you all I'm more and more hopeful that FRFR will be a good solution with the Kemper.
Thank you for being so detailed and informative. Wish I had the funds for JBL SRX series. I'd be very interested to learn the model of the EV monitors if you can check that.
I have a pair of these EV M-12G (guitar monitor cabs).
These have EVM- 12L Series II inside.
Hi, stonepac,
"Kemper stage is up to date"
What version of the OS are you running?
You have to be running OS version 10 Beta to use Liquid Profiles.
https://www.kemper-amps.com/do…ting-System-Beta-Versions
Morphing should work at Liquid Profiles, if you avoid Amp Model Gain, but set up Morphing for Generic Gain instead, This has the same practical effect, since both gains are linked. You need to enter amp settings and set up Morphing for Generic Gain on page 4. You can do this at the hardware or in Rig Manager. Amp Model Gain will follow the Morphing of Generic Gain correctly. It gets also stored correctly.
At Liquid Profiles the dedicated knob at the front panel controls Amp Model Gain. For the time being, don't use this knob to set up Morphing. It cannot work correctly.
Not working for me either.

I'd like to connect the 2 x 12" Dr.Z open back to my powered Kemper.
But the Kemper says 8 - 16 Ohms at its speaker out.
Do I have a problem ?
Quote from Kemper Main Manual v. 10 page 103The Built-in Power Amplifier
The optional built-in power amplifier allows you to connect your PowerHead or PowerRack to 4, 8, and 16-ohms guitar cabinets, as well as unpowered full-range cabinets. It is cabled to the MONITOR OUTPUT internally, so all features of the MONITOR OUTPUT are applied to the internal power amplifier as well. Please refer to the MONITOR OUTPUT chapter of this manual for more detailed information.
Do you feel any latency?
2 ms EW-DP + 4ms Bose + 3 ms Kemper
We use a digital mixer with an additional 1,5 ms, so I would have more than 10 ms.
No, I don't feel any latency.
EW-DP at 1.9 ms, the performance is right up there with the best. And in the context of the rest of your signal chain, 1.9 ms is a tiny difference compared to running wired.
10 ms is roughly equivalent to being 10 feet from a sound source (e.g., a speaker cabinet)
Nice work! Any issues or surprises so far?
No issues or surprises. I've had this running with several other wireless units in the same Sennheiser EW-D family, plus IEM systems, simultaneously. Everything works as expected.
Update to my wireless rig.
Sennheiser recently released the EW-DP system. The target application is digital wireless UHF. Although the magnetic mounting system is designed for camera mounts, it snaps right onto the Kemper Stage. In the picture below, look for the EW-DP EK receiver attached to the Stage.
You can read about it here: Sennheiser Wireless With Kemper Stage - Bose Portable PA Encyclopedia (toonz.ca)
Sennheiser Wireless with Kemper Stage
This is the latest EW-D / EW-DP system from Sennheiser. It's digital UHF (not 2.4 GHz).
I was using the Sennheiser EW-D system with the Kemper Power Rack. The receiver is rack-mountable, and this all works as expected. But when using the Profiler Stage, I wanted a smaller receiver that worked on batteries. The regular EW-D and EW-DX systems are half-rack units powered by an AC adapter.
Sennheiser recently released the EW-DP (portable) system. The tiny receiver is magnetically mounted on a camera hot shoe. The EW-DP system is compatible with the EW-D systems, and you can purchase the receiver separately.
The receiver comes with an XLR cable, so I used an XLR to 6.5 mm Tip-Sleeve adapter (with a built-in Lo-Z to Hi-Z transformer). Everything works great. The magnetic mount snaps right onto the Stage and tenaciously sticks in place.
The transmitter and receiver can run on AA batteries, but I use the Sennheiser rechargeable battery pack for 7-10 hours of runtime.

I recently switched to the Sennheiser EW-DX system because the half-rack receiver handles two channels. This means I can fit the receiver for the guitar and vocal mic AND the IEM transmitter in a single 1U slot in my rack unit. Typically, you wouldn't mount the IEM transmitter and guitar/mic receiver in the same rack unit, but I'm running external antennas outside the rack - so it's all fine.

I just checked this out on my Stage.
Sennheiser XSW-D XLR Base set (two, to try it out in stereo).
https://en-us.sennheiser.com/xsw-d-xlr-base-set
I ran two of them to my PA. Everything sounded fine. It worked with and without the Stage Main Output Level set to -12 dB. No unwanted distortion.
I don't normally do this because I have a snake with the power cable and a balanced cable for the line out. But since V8guitar asked, I thought I'd check it out.
Just for fun, I ran the wireless units to a pair of Bose S1 Pro units (battery-powered).
Here's a link to another thread where I've documented the gear on the left side of the picture.
Eric,
Is it possible that you have the Volume Pedal Range set differently for the RIG in slot 2?
Check the setting in RIG |Volume Pedal Settings and compare it to the rigs in the other slots.
Check if you have Lock Vol Pedal checked (soft button 1).
I've already bought stage, arrives tommorrow.
Then you'll need the welcome package.
