Using one Kemper with two guitars with different output level

I have a similar situation.
Someone may correct me for being wrong here but this works for me:
Save an input "setup" for each guitar adjusting the clean and distortion sense accordingly. This should get the input gains somewhat the same between guitars. Doesn't account for tone differences between guitars but then plugging your strat into a marshall stack then swapping to a les paul and tweaking the gain is no different in a "traditional" setup.
Having said that, using another digital-amp-modelling device, I have a second/duplicate set of patches with gains and tones adjusted to suit the different guitars, only because it doesn't have the "input config" saving ability that the kemper does, which results in twice the work when creating a new sound.

I'm in the same boat. There's no easy way that I can find other than maintaining a complete set of patches for each guitar or going to the amp and fiddling with the Input settings when you switch guitars.

I suspect I'll end up getting something that levels the input before going into the amp.

If you cannot adjust the guitars to be able to use the same Performances all the time, the fastest way to change sounds for different guitars is to have a set of Performances for each guitar.

Fortunately, it is easy to use Rig Manager to add copies of Performances to different banks, and then the Performance Slots can be edited in the KPA.

you can create input section presets for each guitar that you plan to use.
Set the values for clean and distorted sens accordingly.

Nice! That's the answer - didn't know you could save those. Thank you!

Changing Input Presets is a great solution when you have the time to change the preset from your KPA.

If you are onstage, break a string, and need to change guitars very quickly, changing to another Performance bank can be done "by foot".

This influences the different dynamic behavior of different guitars/pickups. But a tonal adaption via Input-presets is not possible though often necessary. I'd prefer pault's advice (see above) especially for live-use.

i was posting this in response to the OP post which was all about levels and not tonal adjustments.

I support this advice.
Changing the guitar change also the sound character of the rig a little bit.
The input preset is good to have same volume but not the same sound.

A better solution would be a global boost with some toneshaping options (like the Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster, but in the Kemper). I had a similar question but have not found a satisfying answer.

Dist Sense and Clean Sense do not the same trick as a booster or hotter pu, when stomp boxes are integrated into the rig or with light crunch sounds (my experience so far and how I understood the manual). Maybe a (locked) preset of pure boost or EQ stomp with added gain may work for you (activated when changing to strat).
