KPA Just arrived!

  • Well just got it yesterday evening, so far very positive impressions, still just learning how it all works.


    One question I had is once I add a stomp (which is easy enough), I can easily switch it to something, turn it off etc... I for the life of me cannot figure out how to change it back to "Empty". How do you clear a stomp button?


    I really also wish there were a PC editor, there are a ton of rigs that I will never use (pretty much all the high gain ones), and it is going to take hours to clear them all out one by one.


    I would actually prefer if the amp could be reset to clear out all the rigs, and I could just add back in the ones I wanted. I did manage to get the USB to work, and I added some rigs from the exchange. It would be cool if the factory rigs were also available for download as well.

  • with a stomp selected, just turn 'Type' all the way counter-clockwise.
    the first entry of the Stomps menu is empty ;)

    Sweet, I knew it had to be simple! I will check it out when I get home. The other thing I think it tricky is all the different volume knobs, but I think I have that sorted out now. Definitely the type of thing that is going to take a week or two to really get the hang of, although it is probably about as user friendly as you can make something with this many options.


    I am really liking the clean amp tones, still need to work with the distorted ones a bit more, they are sounding a little fizzy right now to me.


    Deleting is definitely a pain, there are a lot of rigs saved....

    The factory rigs are not available for download, but you can obtain them from your KPA. Just insert your USB stick into the KPA and create a backup of all rigs on the unit. Then reinsert the stick into your computer, copy the new backup file from the USB stick, and append a new suffix: ".tar". This is an archive format many compression utilities can handle. On Windows, for instance, you could use the freeware utility 7 Zip. In the archive you will find all the kipr files.
