Kemper Player Output Level

  • Hi all!

    Just got the player ansd loaded up some of my favorite profiles.

    I'm noticing that -12 main out to my Apollo X4 is sending much less level to the same input than my Toaster sends with the output set at -12 on it...

    Anyone else having this happen?

    Thanks!

  • Got the answer for customer support if anyone else comes across this as a newbie like me 🤣

    thank you for your email. The Player uses the same architecture as the Profiler Stage. Both models deliver a signal level that is about 6 dB lower than the one that the Profiler Head and Rack deliver. This is by design since the Head and Rack signal is very hot and needs the -12 dB option in many scenarios to prevent connected devices from clipping. We improved that situation by lowering the output levels of the Stage and Player accordingly.


    With best regards,
