CARR Rambler Clean (four profiles) and CARR Rambler Pentode (three profiles) all by VaiSatchAtrucci.

I saw this recommended a while back: Mackie SRM150 5.25-Inch Compact Active PA System

It's about $250. As I was searching regarding the Mackie, I noted that there were several similar units that were cheaper, Behringer, et al.

I have a set of Bose speakers, that I think I initially bought to be used with a computer (several years ago so I don't really remember). I now use them for my television and they sound great with the TV. So, I thought, with a TRS to RCA cord, I could use them as a small practice set up. It worked but the sound was not great. Just FYI.

No pedals for me with the Kemper.

And I have a huge, ridiculous pedal board, along with a smaller, grab and go type pedal board, but one of the major reasons I got the KPA, was to have an all-in-one solution.

So, I played around with this: in the Rig Menu, I tried several configurations of tempo enable and lock tempo. I even tried locking the tempo enable unchecked. But, as I assume y'all have surmised, as soon as you press the tap tempo button, all revert to tap tempo. Don't have time right now to delve in further but there may be a way (read "work around").

In addition to all the great suggestions above, search the RE for 2553 and try some of PaulTS's Marshall profiles.

Thanks also. I had a similar wierd situation where I had assigned something (couldn't figure out what it was; maybe delay freeze) to a switch, and then changed effects. Well, that button still retained the assignment, the white light would still come on when I stepped on the button, but did not change anything. And I could not figure out how to get rid of it.

But now I do!

Great post.

I literally laughed out loud at the title to Part 5!

I've had the same question, wanting to delete a slot/slots out of a 5 slot performance right from the Profiler.

My solution has been to delete in Rig Manager, or if not connected to Rig Manager, uncheck the Slot Enable box.

The beauty of the Slot Enable uncheck is, if you decide you want that rig back, you just check the Slot Enable box.

And of course, you can overwrite the slot at anytime.

Alternatively, you can copy and past the slots you do want to keep to a new performance, and then delete the old performance. (I just checked, and I can't find a way to delete a performance at the profiler, so you may have to do that from Rig Manager also. )

If, as paults asked above, you want less than 5 slots in a performance, you can change that in the Systems settings, it's on page 12 of 18.

Whew, whoever said life is just a bunch of workarounds was RIGHT!

Thanks Aaron.

I spent a bunch of time a few weeks ago messing around with the delays and discovered two things:

the dotted 8th delay needs to be way louder than the other delays and

the dotted 8th delay need to be up the center (that is, not panned)

I also came up with another "flavor" where the first two delays were short (1/32 and 1/16) and panned hard left and right, the third delay was the dotted 8th (up the center) and the last delay was 1/4 and panned. Try setting the dotted 8th delay volume at 10, the 1/4 delay at 2, and the two shorter delays in the 2-8 range.

If you REALLY want get crazy stereo/panning, try using both of those at the same time.

For a take on the dotted 8th delay in stereo try this:

Use the Rhythm Delay

Set the mix fairly high, say 70 or higher

Feedback at 0 or very low

Note Value 1 at 1/8 dot

Note Value 2 at 1/4

Note Value 3 at 1/4 dot

Note Value 4 at 7/16

Volume 1 at 10

Volume 2 at 2

Volume 3 at 2

Volume 4 at 1

Panorama 1 at 0

Panorama 2 at +100

Panorama 3 at -100

Panorama 4 at +100

Stereo at 100

Ducking at 0

As always, tweak around until you find something you think is cool.

The quad delay will really let you fine tune it; you can control the volume and panning of each of the delays independently.

Try the quad delay, you can set the volumes of all the delays to whatever volume you want. For my use, I set the first delay at 10, and the subsequent delays at 2 or less.

If you are running stereo, center the first delay and pan the subsequent delays.

The amount of high end in the delay makes a difference in how apparent the repeat is. Cut highs from the delay to make it less apparent.

You will only get 3 repeats with feedback at 0. If you want more than 3 repeats, increase the feedback.

As always, experiment with these suggestions until you get what you want.

+1 on deleting the presets you don't need. Doing that really speeds things up for me.

Great post. I found those profiles awhile back but had a slightly different experience.

First of all, I try every profile named tweed-anything (or champ or princeton or deluxe for that matter).

There was just something about those profiles that caught my attention. I had to tweak pretty heavily to get what I wanted but, there was something very very cool about the profiles that made me want to work with them. So, agreed, thanks to Zoltan 1957 for those.

I had even wanted mention them in the Hidden Gems thread, but didn't want to try to explain my tweaks. If you haven't already, maybe you should mention them in that thread Mateo_2006.

Again, thanks for the great post.

Got it.

Thanks.

Agree with paults, I set mine to 1/16 and use tap tempo. Keep in mind that you don't have to tap quarter notes. Tap in a slower tempo if you need longer delays. Try tapping quarter note triplets.

Yes, they make a difference, but they are just various configurations of the output section.

You can scroll through them and see if any of them suit your use situation.

I find it easier to set up the output section the way I need it to be and then save that as a preset or presets if you need say stereo output for recording and mono output for live.

If, for instance, you have the output section already configured they way you want it, save that as Deej09 Default (or whatever you would name it). That way you always have that setting to go back to if you decide to experiment.

Makes sense now; the assignments are saved in the slot, not with my effects or stomps presets, correct?

And thanks for your response.

I apologize if this has already been addressed, but I searched the forum and the manual and could not find an answer:

Is there any way to preserve my pedal assignments (I am using the profiler remote) when adding a new rig to a performance?

I have tried copying and pasting my effects and stomp presets. I have tried locking stomps and effects and then saving the performance. Both of these will save the stomps and effects in the profiler and does retain morph setting and expression pedal assignments, but then I have to go through and manually assign the stomps/effects to the remote buttons.

Thanks.

...or just turn it off after soundcheck, between sets, etc.
