Hi!
I wanted to play bass with my kemper (using the Xlr main outs connected to my yamaha 80hsm).
Clean sense is set to 0 but every time I'm trying to slap with my bass, the kemper is clipping, even if I low down the rig volume...
What can I do?

Attenuate the input further, i.e. roll down the volume on the bass itself, then compensate by raising the volume on the output of the Kemper.

What's clipping? Input or output?

I'll try that, thank you ...
But why do i have to change the bass volume?
Shouldn't there be another possibility ?What's clipping? Input or output?
Should be the ouput ...

Active electronics in your bass?

I have noticed that certain bass profiles clip or are close to clipping I usually just mess with the EQ until I get a good sound.
In the below clip I used the microtubes b7k profile by r.u. sirius.... might work good for the style you are going for, imo.

Lower the input signal. Any boost as well as HPF or LPF can produce a boost that can result in a clipped signal. Profilers try to average level but it is almost impossible to cover each an every ground (i.e. signal strength) across such a wide spectrum of instruments and players!

you may have to add a compresser to tame some of the peaks

I have EMGs in my bass, but I was able to set clean sense higher than the passive pickups on my guitar. Go figure.
As mentioned by Trazan, you should lower the volume of the rig (not Master Volume) in such a situation,
