Interesting, it's the opposite for me. With the Kemper I hear myself so much better than when I was using my Marshall head, I can keep the volume lower and even if I'm close the speaker I can hear myself, where as with the Marshall I had to move 3-4 meters away. And I get plenty of punch and air moving through my cab, with the FOH being happy since they get a direct signal.
You could opt to use your Mesa as poweramp, or use 4 cable method and use it an an external amp into the KPA via the loop.

Cleans are Dumble profile from RE, rhythm and solo are Bert's CAE profile. Effects are all Digitech GSP1101.
Gives you an idea of the 'in the mix' quality of these profiles.
Thx, will give it a try!
Yes it's on. If I manually align them up to the exact same start positions they start to cancel each other out.
I really enjoy the sounds I get from the KPA when recording directly, but there often seems to be something missing, like some air, liveliness, 3D, not sure how to explain it.
On the other hand I think the KPA sounds killer in the room via a tube power amp and cab. I typically use 2 mics, a SM57 and an AKG C2000. Now, If I record the same part with direct analog main outs and the 2 mics, the KPA 'direct' sound misses some air, and if I play back the miced sounds, the sound misses some focus. Soundwise I get the best sounds when combining those mics and the direct signal, but I also run into phasing issues when turning on all tracks, which the phase invert option of my daw does not fix.
The way I record now is stereo main outs or spdif stereo into my daw, and the mics in front of a mono cab. This is also how I would like to pan things, the stereo hard left and right and both mono mic sounds in the center.
Is this (combining direct and mic'd) something any of you also does and how do you prevent the phasing issues?
Cheers,
Michael
Man, that is pretty specific time period...most people just say the Eighties, as in the decade.
I'm really digging these profiles. All three very useful. I combined 1 and 2 with the Bogner cab from Bert Meulendijks F-Man pack and am very pleased. Automatically started to play a lot of 1987 riffs 
Display MoreI'm sorry peeps, at the moment my responding isn't that fast as it should be...I'm in the middle of the Voice of Holland blind auditions (for those who knows the television programme)..Playing over 200 songs is quite a lot so it's taking some time..
The answer to your question is that besides the Marshall offset I profiled some amps that I really like but there is still a lot to do.
At this moment I'm quite happy with a 50's Watkins Westminster, a Magnatone Troubadour, a Victoria Golden melody, a Marshall Yngwie M, a HiWatt custom 50, a Sound City 50 plus and a MI Audio Megalith.

Oh, come on! Don't act like you are the guitarist most in demand in the Netherlands. Oh wait, you are! 
Seriously, can't wait for your next crown jewel, but the F-Man is keeping everyone here busy, I think
I use the effects out of my GSP1101, which are better.

Dont' forget to turn on monitoring on your track in your daw and to enable all inputs and outputs.
... as I said...
Ah, I need coffee, much coffee. And glasses 
Sorry mate, but good idea
Display MoreHey guys,
New Kemper User. I just purchased two Power Rack's less two weeks ago.
Everything's been working fine setting up profiles through my studio monitors back home.
However, when I plugged into the Speaker Output into my live cab I stopped getting any sound. I've tried updating the software, switching between profiles, adjusting volumes, the output menu, turning the power amp on, switching cables, switching between cabinets, and I'm still not getting any sound. The only time I hear any noise is when I plug the cabinet into the main output *It's quiet and I can't boost the signal enough for a live setting*.
Main Output: Master Stereo
Monitor Output: Master Mono
Direct Output: Git+Processing
SPDIF: Master Stereo
Monitor Cab's been used on and off
Power Amp is selected on with a 6.0db boost.
The only reason I'm leaning towards a factory defect with the unit is because I eventually plugged our other guitarist's power rack side by side with mine, and his seems to work fine through the same setup. I don't want to have to go buy an additional power amp since we spent the extra for the 600w unit. We're leaving for an overseas tour in less than a week and I'm desperate to identify some sort of user error rather than a defective Kemper.
Thanks!!
Make full backup of his KPA and restore on yours (but must be same fw through), so that way you will know if it's Hardware related or not.
right
this^ + Rig Manager is very powerful
(hint: you can also lock STOMPS, EFFECTS, AMPLIFIER & EQ and then go looking for cool cabinets)
This is actual a very good hint!
I can't watch the vidéo, got an error from Facebook, invalid link, is it normal?
Odd, added a hidden youtube link in my post for you.
Here's a snippet of Bert's CAE in the pack. A bit of fun, this was the answer to a quiz I put on my Facebook timeline ("guess which song with a woman's name in the title I'll be recording today" ). Recording with a smart phone of an unmixed and unfinished track off of our upcoming Toto Tribute album, Fanfields 2. But it does show the quality of the profile, I think.

Cheers,
I track main out analog left + right and spdif just in case I do need to reamp something. I prefer the sound of the analog, but have gotten fine results with the spdif as well (but I go spdif in of KPA and then record the analog main outs again, I just like how my interface 'colors' the tone).
I took everyones advice and I got it to reamp without feedback. The only prob is the volume of the recording. The volume is low, and the distortion is low. It sounds like I recorded a distorted guitar with the volume knob on my guitar turned off 90%... I need to boost the output volume.. Anyone have any ideas ? Also, not sure if I have it set up right , but the sound I want the DI guitar to become, is what I have on the kemper screen... Thanks again for the advice thus far...
Used the 2i2 too. Put the master volume higher to get more volume into your interface. Also use the main outs of the KPA
Had something similar in a way. I had just gotten the KPA and set it up, to play through my power amp and cabs. In my case the noise was there a litt,e but the sound just dropped, then came back or gone, back, gone, back. Until total silence. Until I turned the master, than it sometimes would come back.
Eventually the reason was analog, a bad cable somewhere in my chain. Maybe worth the elimate.
