Anyone Using the Kemper for an Acoustic Rig?

Quote from Jtdoherty

I’m having exactly the same problem as above- I have

Downloaded multiple profiles both commercially available and from the rig exchange and I cannot get a good acoustic sound. By no way am I being disparaging about anybody’s work and I’m very grateful for all the efforts - I think perhaps the problem is more me I am not doing things correctly.

My gear is also complicated and not your average...

I have an Emerald x10 carbon fibre with double pickups - piezo and neck magnet. You can use a mono out which sums both pu’s (you have ability to mix onboard) or stereo out for outboard mixing.

Any help would be great

It might be good if you could specifically articulate your exact problems and/or post some clips. There are lots of different things mentioned above and its not really clear what your issues are.

I use the Kemper mainly for acoustics these days I'm on my way to the airport so can't tell you what my settings are though. I think they were just pre amps from the rig exchange. I balance and eq levels/FX for each guitar and save as a preset and then load them all into a performance along with my own JM/SSS profile for the electric gtr. Works great

Glad I found this thread.

I have to sub for an acoustic gig in a couple of weeks and was wondering about using the Kemper as my source for FOH and a dedicated stage monitor. Based on what I've read here I fired up my PA, pulled up a random patch on the Kemper, disabled the amp and cab simulations, and tweaked the EQ a little. Sounds great, and I have access to my pedalboard simulation on the remote. My guitar is a Taylor 414CE.

Sounds pretty funky throwing a wah pedal at an acoustic. Rotary, too.
