Help, I bought a Kemper.

If budget allows, I would recommend the Yamaha HS8 over the KRK RP8.

I would not suggest to go smaller than 8" speakers unless you plan to add a separate subwoofer.

I don’t see the need for 8” or sub for guitar. In fact in an untreated room with poor dimensions the extra bass from a sub can be more of a problem than a help. A good 7” can work fine but there is a lot of personal taste in it so nothing beats trying different options.

Here is a tip not found in the manual.

Make sure your profiles are backed up in 2 or 3 places....2 of those cloud based.

And importantly, make sure you must log in with User ID and password every time you access the cloud files.

My computer was hit by ransonware last year and I had to trash the drive and start fresh.

While my attack primarily targeted pictures and documents, other ransomware attacks may encrypt everything.

In fact, with ransomware attacks common now, everybody should back up every file on their computer these days.

Congrats on the new purchase and DEFINITELY watch the official Kemper tutorials.

I found a great set of used Yamaha HS80M. They do a great job for me.

There should normally be a small Quick start manual but there is no perimeter detailed manual. You need to download that from the website simply because they try to keep it up to date

And it's worth noting that the link to the MIDI implementation guide listed in the manual (at least as of a week or two ago) is wrong.

You have to poke around and find it manually. I hit that section of the site first and didn't see it, then found it from Google, which pointed me back to a link on the Kemper site. I can't remember what the difference in location was but it's there.

It doesn't necessarily mean that the Kemper had been returned by someone else.

Mine arrived without picks and no power cable, and I know for sure that it was new as I waited 3 months for it to arrive from Germany and know the wholesaler.

One other recommendation....work out first what you want to be able to do, then research that...sounds obvious but we all use the Kemper differently...
