Just out of curiosity, is there an output on the back of your Kemper head with a red ring around it? If so, it's a power head and is ready for the Kabinet right now.
Agreed, post a picture of the back.
Which currency are you using that it cost you 3k?
Display MoreA couple suggestions that i can offer.
1. In your SPDIF setup, one device has to be the master for sync purposes and the other unit has to be setup as a slave unit. If the two units are not in sync, you will get crappy or no SPDIF audio at all. Your KPA is the master, so make sure to setup your Focusrite to be the slave. By default, it's probably setup to be the master for sync purposes. Most audio interfaces switch from internal clock to external clock automatically when it detects a S/PDIF signal. Not sure about your Focusrite. You may have to manually change it somewhere in the control panel for your Scarlett. If it's currently set to "Internal", change it to external sync, so it gets it's sync timing from the Kemper.
2. Once the two units are in sync, it's just a matter of going to the Master output S/PDIF knob of the Kemper and selecting which audio you want to send to your Focusrite. All of the settings should work, Master Stereo, ect. Some are more specific, like the ones mentioned above. Git/Mod or Got/Master Mono puts the unprocessed guitar from the input jack on one of the two S/PDIF channels and the processed sound on the other S/PDIF channel. The Kemper manual describes all the various options for S/PDIF output. None of them will work if the two units aren't in sync first.

I am having this same issue. (Old bump, I know)
Attempting to use a Kemper powered toaster with a new Focusrite 6i6 and the free version of Pro Tools that comes with it. (Pro Tools First)
Will give this a shot tonight to see if i can get sound.
I know you don't want to hear this, but I think it's vital for all the folks who read this thread, considering the investment that we all make in our gear, it's vital to buy the gear to protect it.
What do you recommend? Something like a Furman power conditioner?
Interested in the Malcolm Young rig..
Will check it out tonight.
Thanks for the warm response everyone!
I pretty much did the same!
Started with the Dumble and the 69 Marshall packs, and deleted everything else on the Kemper.
A few days ago I added TopJimi's brown sound pack which is also pretty cool.
Britt's are my favorites so far.
I've had my Kemper only a few days and already have two of his packs!
I want to delete everything that is not his, all the others pale in comparison.
Michael Britt is the Holy Grail when it comes to profiling!!!!!
Thanks for the warm welcome!
Cyber and I already know each other already, he has helped me out a bunch to get started.
Appreciate it, I'm looking forward to learning a ton.
Hello
I am a newbie on the forum, from Chicago Illinois.
Have had my Kemper for 1 week now and am really loving it.
I have a ton to learn as I am just getting started, seems like you have a great community here.
Thanks
