If something isn't sounding right I try a few different amp profiles before I jump into EQ. It's often the crazy little amp you never considered that ends up cutting through just right.

I'm guessing they'll want to release the powered KK first, since it's a match for the stage. Otherwise you buy both and still can't make a sound without another company's product.

Excellent!

He already used a different button assignment for tap tempo earlier in the thread to rule out the button. 😎

I've gone sort of full circle on morphing. I set up different types of morphing when I first got it, but I was always forgetting which profiles had what in the heat of battle. Then I went to just setting all of them to just add a bit of extra volume, but it's a lot of work setting them all up.

Now I use a separate performance slot for each sound I want, with effects as I want them. Except wah - that's a dedicated expression pedal and slot A locked.

Just use Rig Manager to copy the profile you want off Kemper1, then swap to Kemper 2 and paste or import the profile file into it.

Summer starts in December here, so plenty of time. 🥝

Another recommendation to read up on your audio interface and virtual mixer so you know exactly what's making it to your monitors.

That sounds hopeful. I feel for the technical people that were rushed to get this out the door.

Also - make sure you turn it up! Clean amp profiles at low volume sound bland, but really shine when they move some air.

The last thing I ever would have expected is simple hardware issues. If I buy one of these I'd expect it to be able to take life onstage for years, but the reports I'm reading suggest it's under engineered for that use or the manufacturing is way out of spec.

I'm sticking with the remote until I've got confidence that it's robust enough.

Serious is the best way to describe the entire company. They'll sort you out. Just don't expect the US kind of gushy, friendly support. Just serious business and efficiency.

we're even receiving user reports about this thread being way too off topic.

so, back to topic it is.

No sweat. Don't want to anger THAT kind of user.

Is there any update on the Kemper Kone availability or features?

It's not their emails - the quarantine is on your side. I don't blame your email provider though. It's becoming an ever increasing nightmare trying to deal with spam/phishing mail.

I hope (and expect) you'll get your issue sorted ASAP. Never nice to have trouble with expensive new things.

No you didn't!

I'm not an engineer. 😄

I work with some really good ones though. As long as you keep Monty Python out of the conversation you're good.

I work pretty closely with our R&D department and can only say "it'll be ready when it's ready". This is an unavoidable part of invention. You discover new things and challenges as you go.

The tension comes when you have customers and managers wanting things NOW that have never existed and they have to be perfect. Then you get marketing people and customers talking about engineers like they're children.

I'm a sucker for a nice Deluxe Reverb. I use Michael Britt profiles.

I use noiseless pickups and humbuckers to minimise it at the source, plus I don't use lots of gain often, so I leave the global gate off and use a stomp slot for patches that need it.

If they have the ability to profile a tube amp I'm sure they can find a sophisticated way to determine the perceived volume.
