Everytime I think I need more options or “better” sound quality I take a look at this and realise that the best thing any of us can do is learn to use the stuff we have to its full potential and spend more time learning how to play music. No one in the audience is listening to us saying “great band but if only the guitarist was using a Quad Cortex (AxeFx, ToneX, real Marshall etc etc) but of we don’t actually play the music with conviction they will notice.

The easiest option for just a simple delayed side is to use the dual delay with on one delay set to 0ms and the other 30ms (or whatever value you want.

V8guitar: just curious: what functionality are you missing in the tuner?
It isn’t currently possible to see what note is being tuned to. It’s not a big deal if you are already in tune before playing and just want to correct small tuning variations during a show but it could be an issue for stringing from scratch or using altered tunings like Open G, Open E, DADGAD etc

Why a customs cost? It’s not a purchase/sale is it?
Should just be shipping
Unfortunately, post BREXIT the UK Gov have made everything so complicated that virtually no one ever completes the correct paperwork so consumers end up getting stiffed for extra tax. This forum isn’t the place for a political rant so I’ll leave it at that.

Me too.

Thanks for trashing my comment GString. I’m not sure why you felt the need to do that but the advice I gave was correct based on my having actually tested it in rig manager before replying. 🤷🏻♂️

I get this working occasionally. Other times the rig that I try to pull into the performances window shows a sign (like the traffic sign for a one way street) to indicate that this is not allowed.
That's two different things. I thought your initial question (which I was responding to) was about rearranging the order of performances. I think of this like being a "Setlist" where you put the songs in the order you will play them to make changing between them on stage quick and easy.
The quoted response seems to be referring to adding Rigs to a performance. When adding rigs to make up a performance you need to do a few things.
First - make sure the profilers is in PERFORMANCE MODE.
Next - make sure you have DOUBLE CLICKED on the performance you want to work with. This will result in Rig Manager showing a Headphone Icon. If you don't Double Click the Performance will not be loaded into the Edit Buffer and can't be worked on. I am not privy to any statistic on this but my own guess is that >90% of the "problems" or erratic behaviour people report is actually user error by missing one of these 2 steps. I know that most of the times I have found RM to be flakey with performances it has turned out that I hadn't down one or both of these.

That’s great to hear. I had a similar experience in many ways. Although I found most of the Kemper workflow really straightforward there were a few things that were unintuitive or even counterintuitive to me at first. Once I got over that hurdle everything fell onto place. I alway get a great response from sound engineers and other guitarists. The best thing is the consistency. Once you have your sounds the way you want them they stay that way at every gig. No more tweaking amps and pedals every night an no more inconsistent mic placement and eq from house engineers.
-
Yes.
In RM go to the My Profiler Performances and just Drag And Drop into the order you want.

Ha ok,
So this pre/post feature acts only on mix parameter behavior, thanks for this input
I’m not totally sure. I’ll have a play with it later and find out.
EDIT:
Just tested it. The pitch shifting still happens regardless of Pre/Post setting.

Thanx Wheresthedug & CelticGibson for the clarifications.
Is that the same when we play with Morph for delay time ?
I have a song i pass from 105ms to 375ms and the sound is weird....
Hi Steve. I’m not sure I understand the question. Changing delay time in real time will always sound weird as you are effectively pitch shifting the signal by changing the speed.

I have a out 15 guitars that I use although I only ever take two to a gig or rehearsal ( a main and a spare but these change from gig to gig depending on how I feel that day). I have never needed to adjust distortion sense since I got my power head in 2018. I honestly have no idea why its there but if some people have a use for it and it’s important to their workflow then I respect that too,
-
Yeah, my bad. I was thinking that stack/amp volume could effect input levels to the following blocks differently like clipping into the delay or something, but they are the same. I've just always used rig volume by default. You forced me to re-read the manual and Amp Volume is the recommended parameter to create unity levels between rigs while Rig Volume is to create unity volume within setlists. Sorry if I led anyone astray.
One of the great things about the kemper is that there are often several ways to skin the same cat
-
thanks , that’s clear for me !
The bug is the following : changing the volume from the rig section of the rig manager has no impact. Doing the same from the pedal update correctly the rig volume from the rig section and works well (and can be saved)
I hope it will be fixed soon. Thanks for your support !
It is working perfectly for me using both the Player Knob and Rig Manager so it doesn't look like a bug. How are you loading the Rig for editing and how are you saving it once edited?
-
The common tendency is to always turn everything up when the solution is often to turn one or two things down. Volume creep is a real issue but it is something we should all focus on avoiding at outset rather than trying to fix things afterwards.
-
I don’t understand how you managed to end up with any rigs hitting maximum rig volume. If clean sense is set properly most rigs should be able to fall within +/-2 or 3 db in all but the most extreme scenarios.
-
As Larry said taking the cover off is probably easiest and safest way. However, if this isn’t an option a few other tricks can be used.
One option is to dab a little super glue on the end of a dowel or drill bit and push this into the socket to stick to the tip and pull it out.
Another option is to drill it out with a reverse thread drill bit (screw remover).

Hey Matt, what ToneStack are using on the LP Wizard?
Orange?
Budda ?
It says on the pack pack that it’s a JCM800 stack. Makes sense as I believe Wizards are pretty much modded Marshalls.
-
As dfdfan said, rig volume ismfor balancing levels BETWEEN rigs. Master volume is for setthe outto the PA and once set for the night you shouldn’t need to touch it. If you need to change your onstage level during the gig unlink the Master Volume from the Main Output and link it to the Monitor Output.
-
This is not the same as adjust the amp volume in the stack section as rig volume will not affect the overall sound of the rig itself.
Amp Volume and Rig Volume are the same thing unless you have a volume sensitive effect like Compression or Drive/Boost after the stack. In all other situations they do the same thing.
