Output questions about the Powered amp.

    Helle everyone!


    I'm new to this forum and I have a question about the Kemper powerrack in a live situation.


    I will always use the main output section for the FOH.
    When I'm not playing with in ear monitoring I will use my speakercabinet for stage and monitor sound.


    But I'm playing a lot of gig with in ears. When playing in ear I will not bring my speakercabinet. In that case I want to use the monitor jack output for in ear sound.


    Will the kemper be damaged if I'm not connecting a cabinet to the speaker output?
    And still want to use use the monitor jack output.


    Or do I have to turn off the poweramp section?
    And if I do turn of the poweramp section, can I still use the monitor output?


    Hope someone can answer my questions.

    Hi LeroyC, welcome to the family.


    The Powerrack has two monitor outs. The one from where you supply your cabinet (this output carries speaker-level) and the other one with line-level for feeding a separate Powerstage or -connected to the return slot - another guitar-amp.


    When using your In-Ear-System you should use the second one and switch on your cab-simulation to "on" while the first mentioned output is unused. (don't worry about damages, the powerstage of the KPA is digital and not tube-driven, so there won't be any problems). As you can RITFM it's also possible to switch off the internal powerstage via the output-menu, though it's recommended just only to save energy.
    When using a guitar-cab you can switch on the power-stage, boost the power amp and switch on the softknob "Cab off" in the output-menu, and, just have fun with your Profiler
