Thanks for that. its a nice sound.

Does anyone know of a patch that comes close or matches this nu disco guitar sound from the Strobe Nu Disco remix ? Guitar is at 1.03 seconds.

It is a Daft Punk type of guitar sound.

Thanks for the responses.

Anyone know a preset on the kemper for this type of sound in the rig exchange ?, its a solo guitar tone for a solo during a funk song.

Thanks for your help. I'll check that out.

Does anyone recognise this profile, amp or the phaser setting ?

I have asked the uploader but he won't respond. The tone is incredible.

What was the new interface that worked ? , I'm having latency issues with the focusrite solo but I have to try and figure out what buffer size will get me the lowest latency but won't start clipping and recording badly and I haven't experimented with it that much yet.

I believe the above image might have been from casesmith custom cases. Here are some more of their stuff. Their cases are 130 dollars so maybe second hand I could get one significantly cheaper.

Thanks for that.

Ok, that one doesn't look that good in the other picture. This one looks cooler, anyone know which case this is ?

Thanks for all the responses. I turned it on and it didn't blow up which was nice.

Something like this would be cool.

I have the unpowered kemper rack, does this change things ? ( I probably should have mentioned straight off the bat at the top of the thread. I have put it in above now)

Hi, I just bought the kemper rack and I was wondering is there a cheap black housing I can purchase for it in Europe, if I could get one second hand for 50 euros that would be good. I don't want to buy 120 euros or 200 euros. I am buying this purely because I think it looks good, not for transport or safekeeping. If its not possible to get a housing for it thats cheap, then I will just leave it as it is.

Can I just ask what the other end of the cable means when it says 10A 250~ at the 3 pin connector connection which goes into the kemper. The 5A fuse in the plug protects the outlet in the the wall from going on fire or the multi outlet if you have it plugged into that so what does the other side of the cable mean with 10A 250~, thats whats going from the wall into the kemper ? I dont know anything about electronics so i'm just trying to make sure before plugging in the kemper for the first time.

This is what another user wrote on this forum for the same question:

forum thread :Power cable fuse rating?

"Thanks Musicman, I think you are correct in this.

I've just spoken on the phone to a guy from DV247 and he said I should be using a 5 amp or 3 amp fuse as the KPA draws around 1/8th amp. Basically, the 13 amp fuse supplied should be rated low enough to blow in the event of a short circuit, but normal operation of the KPA shouldn't draw enough current to blow a 3 or 5 amp fuse.

I'm going to use a 3 amp fuse until I hear any different. Better to be safe than sorry.

The consensus of articles I've read up on this matter suggest that using a fuse that's rated too high for particular appliance/cable can allow enough current through to overheat the cable and maybe even cause a fire - even if there is no fault anywhere else, either in the mains current 'spiking', or in the appliance itself (such as a short circuit). Maybe it's the 'curious' way our properties are wired in the UK, but getting the correct fuse installed in a plug is a very serious and potentially life-threatening matter.

I will accept that this mostly applies to appliances that have (permanently) fitted power cords, where the gauge of power cable will have been matched to the current draw of the appliance. In this scenario, it would be quite easy to overheat a power cord designed to carry, say 3amps, by fitting a 13amp fuse to the plug. With the so-called 'kettle' lead supplied with my Kemper, the cable itself is actually of a thick enough gauge to carry the current commensurate with a plug fitted with a 13amp fuse.

I still believe though, that either Kemper, or the vendor (i.e. the company you made the purchase contract with) should stipulate the correct electrical use of the product for the region it has been purchased from, or for use in."

Brilliant, thanks for your response. This is whats written on the plug. This isn't the actual plug I'm using but it has the same marking of 5A, 250V~. What is 0.5 amp maximum referring to again ? Do most people use a 5 amp fuse in the plug or 13 A ?

Hey guys, I just bought the kemper rack second hand , I purchased it on ebay from a guy in Italy , it came in near mint condition but with the European plug which I was expecting. I looked around my house for a kettle lead, the one I have has 250V 5 amps in the plug part, then the 3 pin part of the cable says 250V 10 Amperes. The european plug that came with it says 250V 10 amperes at the 3 pin connection part, in the plug itself, it says ~250V 16 Amps. The kettle lead I have is marked Longwell. I don't suppose anyone uses the exact plug I have and it works great ?

I know that this topic has been covered before but I just wanted to double check the exactly correct UK plug. The 250V~ difference between that and 240V doesn't matter right ? The 5 amp plug will be alright or do I need to use a 13 amp plug ? I would hate to fry this beautiful piece of equipment. I am using the unpowered kemper rack.

Thanks again for the responses, thats a really good idea about picking up the m5 if needed in the future. Unfortunately I don't think I'm going to be able to try the kemper first without selling the stuff, I don't know anyone who has one but from what I've seen on the internet, I know its packed full of amazing tones.

Great . Thanks for your responses.Very informative.I can't wait to pick this up.

Thanks for your response, Ok, so your saying I should keep the line 6 m9 for the modulations which I like because I do like the phaser, flanger, chorus and delays but I'm not in love with them so I thought I could sell it and the looper is great. I thought the kemper had everything.
