How to download profiles? (New user, n00b in distress!)

Download RigManager via the homepage of Kemper and you're done.

Yes RM is the easiest and quickest way to audition rigs with the profiler.

Almost. Make sure the name you have to enter for RigManager is the same like the one you gave to the Kemper.

Alright guys. Thanks for the help. I find it weird that something so basic isn't mentioned in the manual and the Kemper isn't delivered with the usb cabel needed. Oh well..

Welcome! The printed manual that comes with the Kemper only covers the basics. Make sure you download the comprehensive fiull manual as well.

Check your operating system against Rig Manager requirements - it does not run on some of the older, yet not obsolete operating systems such as Mac OS 10.5.8.

I'm a new owner/user too, and I had a similar struggle. I don't have my Kemper connected to my PC, but I do have the Rig Manager software installed on the PC, and I created a local library where I copy downloaded rigs or rigs from the RM.

What the manual doesn't tell you is once you put a USB drive in the slot on the Kemper, go to browser mode and wait for the External Storage option to appear at the top of the screen. From there, the buttons above allow you to format the drive, and/or import/export rigs. The manual does tell you which folders to use. For firmware updates, copy the kaos.bin to the OS Update folder. For importing rigs/profiles, copy those to the Shared folder.

Buy a cheap usb cable and connect it. Go to browser mode. Double click a rig you like in the RM . It arrives directely on the kpa display. Tweak it like you want. Press the store soft button, name it like you like and finally you have saved it with a new name in your kpa. You also see every rig that you have stored in the kpa on RM. Fine tool.

Apple dropped support for 10.5 somewhat 2012, 10.6 was dropped in Oct. 2014.
99% of all current software has already dropped support for 10.5. or 10.6 within the last 2 years.

Again, planned obsolescence is different from mandated obsolescence.

I don't understand what you're saying.
Fact is: it is nearly impossible to build everything correctly for 10.5 or 10.6 with current XCode versions (which you need to build everything for CURRENT OS X versions). To demand 10.5 support is really a hopeless thing.

Not demanding, just asking. Your response makes the most sense out of any I have ever received as I used to do a lot of coding for websites.

Maybe asking persistently would be more accurate. but I get it, and will drop it.
