I hope to spend some time with mine this weekend and if I do, I will try and provide feedback.

I bet MuddySludge has seen this - anyone else? If you don’t love this, we can’t be friends.... 😂

I’d love to hear your take on the Morgan pack when you’ve tried it
So, with the caveat that I am not a high-gain player, I tried out about a dozen profiles from this pack. I jammed for about an hour trying out different rigs from about 0-3 or 4 bars of gain, occasionally straying into 5 (I know, heady territory...). So far, a huge thumbs up. More when I have more time.

will do. give me a bit, but hopefully over the weekend or holidays at the latest.

As if I need more profiles... LOL! BUT, couldn't pass up the new Morgan pack, so grabbed the Brown Bag and Bass pack, just in case! Not sure how soon I will be able to load them, but...

Display MoreAnother great album from the 70´s : Tony Williams "The joy of flying" ( Still got it on vinyl )
Real people playing real music and the groove is just stellar
Jan Hammer´s MiniMoog solo is unnecessarily good
Cheers !
That was so good I had to share it on FB.

We still can't manage presets that are banks of Stomps or Effects. I'd like to see that ability in RM since we can save them on the Kemper itself.

I apologize. Every time I get in front of my Kemper, I get frustrated...

Off topic: its refreshing and inspiring to read dialogue from someone who can put forth a competent argument against multiple opponents. Its even more inspiring to see that its a woman, holding her own against a bunch of men. (not that any of them crossed any lines, I am not implying that) I don't necessarily agree (or disagree for that matter), with any of the arguments presented, but I do admire style, finesse, and the ability to remain unflappable in the face of multiple points of opposition.

Subject says it all: Is Rig Manager compatible with Mac OS Big Sur? Has anyone upgraded their Mac to the new OS Big Sur?
-
All good here with the update from Rig Manager. First try.
I think this is an older hardware issue.
-
are we ever going to be able to update using rig manager again????? I have already opened a ticket about this previously. Do I need to do it again? *sigh*
-
there isn't and there never was a right way and a wrong way to use gear.
Maybe you should tell that to Burkhard? Just sayin'...
-
Now THAT brings back memories!
-
Send tickets to the support team. The squeaky wheel...

Probably that is your goal. But mine is to have fun. And some times I have more fun just searching for tones or tweaking than just playing and playing to improve my skills as a musician.
And also, knowing how to get different sounds makes you a better musician. Not only playing your instrument.
I wouldn't say that either goal is mutually exclusive. I know that as I improve as a musician, I have more fun when I play, especially when I play with musicians who have an ear and are listening and responding to what I am playing. It also opens doors when musicians whom I respect, hear me play, and say they would like to collaborate some time. I too have had fun chasing tone and 'the perfect rig', but that has grown tedious for me as I recognize what is of value (to me), and what is not. While I have had plenty of people compliment my tone using both the Kemper and my tube amp, I definitely enjoy the compliments to my playing more. Again, YMMV.

I've owned my Kemper Toaster for over five years. Yes, its an awesome, versatile piece of equipment, but the rabbit hole is very, very deep, and every update and new feature adds to that complexity. In retrospect, all of that time I have spent chasing the rabbit could have been much better spent. I will keep it around, but I also have a small tube amp set up for the current COVID socially-distanced outdoor gigs, and quite frankly, after A/B testing, its a lot easier using that rig than the Kemper. I'll still use the Kemper for gigs with a dedicated sound guy (if those ever happen again), but for any gig where we/I am running our own sound, no. Lastly, I recommend to all that you don't lose sight of the real goal: being a better musician. If the equipment distracts you from that, you might want to reconsider. Your experience may vary, but I really do wonder how much of a better musician I might be today, if I spent even half the time I spent on the Kemper just practicing with a metronome.

Unless I'm missing something, the one improvement I'd like ASAP is when you've loaded a preset for Kemper Drive, the preset name you used is nowhere to be found. Meaning - if I load a Klon preset and come back to that rig in the future - I can't see what 'pedal' that specific Kemper Drive is set to (or started out as before editing).
I gave up on asking for this years ago.
