I cannot recommend the Boss WL20.

Mine had so many dropouts that I returned it and got another one. It was the same. I had the receiver attached to the mic stand, so it was like half a meter away. As soon as I separated a little, it failed. I only use it at home now. I do around 50 gigs per year. Most of them open air.

Then I got a Xvive and it works much better. No dropouts.

Previously I had line6 g30. Works on batteries, so...

I got the G10 and I love it. So much, in fact, that I got the G10S. It was horrible. Obviously defective. I returned it the same day.

As I like the "virtual cable" thing, I'd like to try the Sennheiser XSW-D, but I think it's a little too big and it looks like the flexible parts fail.

Kemper and quad have no sound, its only as good as what you put into it,,

Well... QC is not only about captures, it also has amp models inside, so it "has" sound.

I always carry one of those plastic rolls used for food.

Not very cool looking but very effective against dust, rain...

Don't know about opening the Stage, but when a footswitch is scratching I always use Contact Cleaner (residual 0). It works very good.

Thank you.

It's not about that. It's about when you change the status of an effect in a performance (pushing pedals I, II, III, IIII) and change to another slot, when you come back to the slot where you changed the status of the effect, that status doesn't go back to the saved status. It only happens when connected to Rig Manager.

Is there a way to activate/deactivate this behavior no matter if Rig Manager is connected or not?

Excuse me for writing here.

Yes, that's the behavior when the profiler is connected to Rig Manager.

I think there is a way to select if you want this to happen or not, but I cannot find it.

Any help?

Thank you.

I Iike him so much... Classic but original, full of tricks... He is so expressive... Very inspirational. And, while being very accessible, so far away from the mainstream... And a lot of energy and feel.

Well, I really cannot explain it, just go and see and hear him playing.

It would be great for sure.

I think there is a new device that does exactly that.

I'm sure that if it can be done with a Kemper, we'll have it (and it'll be free).

Why "when possible use a later reverb"?

I find a good workaround is to drag the effects I want to the desktop. Then I can drag them into whichever rig I need them.

This!!

I thought it was a joke, or a wish, but it works.

Just what I needed.

Thanks.

Yes.

Excuse me, when I read wireless I understand you talk about wireless from guitar to amp. They are mono, and you do the stereo thing in the effects section, as you know.

If you talk about IEM, they are generally stereo, but not always.

That's very strange.

Quote from Finally

I saw Robben Ford live from the front row and his Dumble was pointed straight at me. It wasn't that balanced in the mix to me, but it's still the sound I "hear" when I'm thinking of the best guitar sound ever. 😎

Great!

How close?

I forgot to say seats were very close to the stage. Maybe 1,5 meters away, so maybe 5 meters away from the amps which were exactly at the height of our heads.

I also forgot to say the concert was beautiful and I absolutely recommend it.

And Skye keeps singing better and better. She is incredible. Even better than the records.

Hello, let me explain, please. I just wanted to share this with you.

Yesterday I went to see this band I like sooo much.

Big auditorium.

I had my seat at first row. In the center. Just in front of the singer. File 1 Seat 1. As I love the guitar player's sounds (very classic Tele and 335 sounds with, yesterday, an AC30 and a Hot Rod Deluxe) and style, I also got tickets for first row but just in front of the player (yes; that's the kind of freak I am). I finally decided I'd use the one in the center and gave the others to my brother, who also plays guitar.

From my position, the guitar sounded... Perfect. That's the word. Perfect. So beautiful...

In fact I thought I should consider using my tube amps again for some gigs.

Until, at the end, my brother (remember: he also plays guitar and was also in first row but exactly in front of the guitar player), told me the guitar sounds were so horrible and loud that he couldn't really enjoy the gig.

The only conclusion I can get:

I got the right tickets.

Get yours right now but, please, not in front of the guitar player in the first rows.

I'm not saying at all he should use a modeler. No way. Never. But I have to think... What about some guitar amp shields?

And... Yes... How could it sound with a modeler, for the audience?

Yes.

To me, it sounds like the cab block/s was/were disconnected.

Did you use the same outputs you use at rehearsals?

Did you check the sound after the gig (at home, rehearsal room...)?

Last weekend I had a private gig in a local social club.

Being able to sound just through the PA (we all use IEMs) is just fantastic. The absolute control of volumen and panning takes you to a new level (I think it's not necessary to tell in this forum about the sound quality you get from Kemper).

That and an Evertune equipped guitar and I was in paradise.

I just missed we had, for the first time, and lost, the chance to use one of those transparent drum shields (yes, our drummer is the missing link).

Mine (Stage) has a ferrite bead.

Quote from Vinny Burns

I would say that if you are doing fly gigs, get a flight case. I have two Kemper stage units and they are both flight cased.
I have those two Kemper’s and two guitars that are also flight cased. They all go in the hold on the plane.

I know that once we get to the destination country for our gigs, all our stuff is then put in the van the promoter has. Usually with the the rest of the hire gear for the dates.

The last thing you want is your Kemper in a little soft bag being banged around in the back of a van by every other piece of gear that is in a proper case.

Obviously, this is how I do it but you may have other reasons that you don’t want to do it like this.

I'm not in that level (I'd like to be there). We take care and carry our own gear and we travel with it in the van. The band, our driver/roadie and the sound man. So I'm the one who carry my gear to the airport, to the van, to the hotel, to the venue...

I like to carry everything at the same time: guitar on my back or in one hand, and trolley with everything else in the other.

I remember an interview with someone at Marshall amps some years ago. He said they made the big money with the solid state amps.

Some people just use one sound. Or two. If I used just 2 sounds and I was in a big and famous band I wouldn't worry about carrying many Kempers or tube amps, but if I use just one or two sounds and I play in a working band with no roadies, I'll use another gear. And that's what I do with one of the bands I play with. And overseas (like 30 gigs per year; that's 60 flights).

I'm really using live just 4/5 profiles (generally same amp model with different levels of gain and optional delay and reverb) so the Stage is a little two much.

Believe me: I love my Kemper. I still think what they do is like... Science Fiction (because I don't believe in magic). If someone told me in the past about the possibility of a device doing that, I wouldn't have believe it was possible. But I'd have a lot of fun thinking about it.

So... I'm just having a lot of fun thinking about it: a shortened Stage that does what I'd like. With Tap tempo, please
