Hi Robman,

thanks for your answer!

Unfortunately neither changing the pedal type nor changing the input did anything.

I couldn´t find another trs cable in my pile of unused cables, so I couldn´t check that.

So, could still be the cable...

That reminds me a couple of months ago I bought a 6 pack of trs cables from a well known auction site - cheap, I might add - and found only 3 of them worked 'properly' ...... They all had molded ends and were from the Far East so may well be worth checking .....

Not commenting on the speaker, but I had one of those Montage 1 x 12" cabs and have to say they are not very good for road use.

Tolex easily scratches and the whole assembly just felt cheap but not so cheerful ...

Nowhere near Mesa baltic birch quality.

If you get the chance to try out a Strymon Deco, do so. Here's a video I did comparing the Mimiq to the Deco.

Would have been good to hear a 'clean' guitar signal as well ..... to make more of an evaluation .....

Ah, yes. So your Rack versions are the same weight as mine - 16.9kgs.

I bet that covering will wear better. Looks like the same texture as the old Peavey combos

The leatherette/vinyl finish, while nice on the eye, is starting to show a few bumps and scrapes (despite having the cover).

I see these new cabs are almost 4kgs lighter than the regular active. I should have waited !

Yes, the RedSound stuff is quality indeed. I use the powered version (250w rms) and have no complaints .....

Not as mid-heavy or fat as my trusty Boogie EVM12L but I was looking for a more neutral sound anyway. More HiFi-like to my ears.

It's a Jupiter 8, if I'm not mistaken. Even Mr May himself doesn't really cut it tone or style-wise here:

Actually going back to the 80's when Fairlight, N.E.D and Emu Samplers used to rule the world, along came Akai and they released one of their Sampler models in 'playback' form only ..... (S1000) It sold very well, too .......

...... and then moves to Manchester, where, with luck, we might have it for a week before the heavens open again ;

I use a Redsound and it is very, very good.

Red Sound RS-LG12 review

The amperage rating (0.5 amp) refers to the amount of electrical current the Kemper would draw (at maximum)

I'd say better to use a 5 amp rather than a 13 amp - it'd blow quicker, thus offering more protection should the worst happen.

On my UK rack it says 0.5 amp maximum, so you'll be fine to use the 5 amp plug. No need to worry about the voltage.

I like the EV in the Boogie halfback cab. Now, I also have a RedSound which has a dual concentric speaker.

On comparing the two, the EV shines (powered by a Palmer Macht 402) with it's fat, great upper mid presence,

while the Redsound is more 'HiFi' but still eminently playable, too !

Hmm, I'd forgotten all about this thread but I never got to see the Fulltone files that I sent back then ....

Does that release also fix the disabled morphing?

Think I've just found a preset that has it's morphing rise and fall time parameters greyed out .....

Have you tried the Comp and Pick etc in the Amp Stack ? While not a 'pedal' it's very playable .....

The Palmer sensitivity setting (H,M,L) should be defined by the Kemper output. It has a clip light that should be avoided apart from a brief flash ....

I run my monitor cab output setting at around -5db and adjust the amp volume relative to the stage sound.

The main output setting can be -20db (mine is) because if you D.I. into the desk it's a better match (the Kemper has a hot output)

Those speakers look good on paper ...... I used similar dual concentric speakers back in the late 70's made by Mckenzie.

Had them in a 50 watt valve SAI combo and they sounded really good .

I'd recommend a Palmer Macht 402 1u racked stereo power amp. Has good input matching (H,M,L) to the Kemper and outputs up to 400w in Bridge mode @ 8 ohms. Has basic treble and bass controls on the front panel.

Good price and good reliability.

Regarding your EVM12L, I'd hang on to it ..... I use one in a Mesa halfback cab - prefer the ambience of open back, but have had Thieles as well - and a Celestion Redback (also 200w @8ohms). The EV wins hands down for sheer girth and presence of sound ! For me, the best guitar loudspeakerthere is .....

The most comprehensive and far reaching fix would be to have the existing note numbers and you can THEN toggle and have actual note names showing instead. (If it's too difficult to toggle between both actual note names should be the only thing showing)

Everyone is a winner and the current Kemper design is still in play commercially.

This suggestion, to me, should keep everyone happy surely ...?

As long as it's practical from the GUI point of view.

Purely from a visual point of view, I can see that numbers take up the least amount of space and would be easier on the eye ...

(at least using my eyes !)

I personally have no problem using the stepped interval approach, but would be happy with the theoretical approach, too.

As long as it was clearly legible ....
