when i was browsing through some threads i read multiple times, that some people here are using the Line6 G10 wireless transmitter.

My music dealer around the corner just posted a warning that there is a fire hazard for the Relay G10, Relay G10S, and Relay G10T wireless products purchased prior to March 2020.

They need to be updated!

Quote

Corrective Action required immediately for Relay G10, Relay G10S, and Relay G10T wireless products purchased prior to March 2020.

Several instances of extreme overheating and a risk of fire presented by the Relay G10T wireless transmitter have been reported since the product was introduced in 2016. All instances of overheating reportedly occurred during charging.

In March 2020, Line 6 issued a “recall-to-repair” with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. The recall to repair is designed to prevent overheating and the risk of fire, and simply requires users to install a firmware update. It takes about five minutes to complete this process.

Many users have still not updated their units so this Safety Alert is intended to raise awareness of the issue and urge owners who have not yet done so to be sure they have the latest firmware version. The latest G10T firmware version is 1.06. Please be sure to update your transmitter if you are not on this latest version.

Units sold after March 2020 were already updated to the latest version.

Additionally, and not a safety matter, Line 6 has determined that certain Relay G10T units with the earlier versions of the firmware may not charge optimally within warm environments. The latest firmware version also corrects this issue.

If you own a Relay G10 and have not updated the firmware, please immediately update your unit to prevent the risk of overheating.

In your first post, you copied the video description and youtube changed the link so it looks like this:

But nice work anyway.

maybe just change it to this:

Vogels/Vonet wifi access point Amazon UK - https://amzn.to/3dmKNFU
Amazon US - https://amzn.to/36aq04t

TP-Link Switch with Power

Amazon UK - https://amzn.to/36aqpnv
Amazon US - https://amzn.to/3h1QuLI

Power adapter to use one cable for kemper and router

Amazon UK - https://amzn.to/3qsyTj4

It sounds really good!

When i read the description i was not hooked at first, just because i'm not a hairmetal-player (more punkrock things) , but then i gave it a try, dialed the gain down a little bit and it works great. I need to give it a try at rehearsals.

Maybe just describe it a little bit more. To me it sound a little bit like a JCM800 with a tubescreamer in front of it (or a different voiced Silver Jubilee?).

And it's really hard to find any information about the cameron amps.

Looking forward to more amps

I have just received a parcel from amazon and this device works perfectly and is powered by USB.

I've had it running for a couple of hours powered by the Kemper and works perfectly. Can work 2 different ways: will add your kemper to your home/studio wifi network or create it's own network if you're on a gig. This solution won't work with a remote, but otherwise it looks like the neatest and cheapest thing.

There are a few different versions, but this one was the cheapest that I found on ebay UK, just under £20.

How long are the cables? The Rack version doesn't have a USB port on the backside...

Quote from Grooguit

Keep in mind that that this is an editor, not rig manager. I don't believe (someone can correct me) that you can store all the rigs and performances and presets you don't want on your kemper in this app. And never a bad idea to check with the wife before a big purchase. Marriage problems ain't cheap either and are vastly more inconvenient than any convenience an editor would bring!

you can’t store any rigs or effects in the app right now. There is some built in stuff, but it’s very limited right now. It’s still version 1.0 so I’m sure there is more to come.

Thomann is selling a bundle in their store with an effect pedal bag. Maybe this can fit? Don’t have measurements for PowerStage. https://www.thomann.de/intl/thomann_effect_pedal_bag.htm

Did you have a look at the Kemper Bag? https://shop.kempermusic.com/d…oer/55/bag-profiler-stage

The SD PowerStage is pedal-size, right?

IT's just a PoE-Switch. So I'm pretty sure he connects the switch with his router. Otherwise he wouldn't have a wireless network.

Quote from Ruefus

It would be interesting to learn the reason(s) why the USB port(s) weren't chosen to add wireless to the legacy models. There must be a practical reason given the fact that USB adapters for Wifi and Bluetooth are easily obtained.

You would need to write drivers to make the USB-Port with the rest of the Hardware. There literally hundreds of different WiFi-Sticks.

Quote from G String

USB doesn't give you a lot of power. If you want your Remote to be connected, it's going to be hard to find a combo that works with USB power only (if at all). and "works" means works reliably. With such a setup, there is more ethernet cable involved than with just a remote cable. And that again influences the power consumption. The USB port on your Profiler is designed to power an USB stick, maybe a drive but it shouldn't be used for other things. That includes recharging your phone.

I'm aware that USB doesn't supply enough power (but I'm spoiled with USB-C nowadays of course). And as I mentioned, I'm happy with the solution I built myself. I don't care if there is one more power cable in the back and i don't need the remote. I just wanted to give feedback, that this router does its job.

So, the tp-link TL-WR902AC (https://www.tp-link.com/de/hom…g/wifi-router/tl-wr902ac/) arrived and here is some feedback:

it works.

just kidding... here's more:

First, the only "negative" point: It need's a seperate power supply (is included in the package, but i was hoping to power it with the profiler USB-port).

The setup was pretty easy. There are 2 modes relevant for me.

1. "Client mode". the tp-link connects to my home wifi network and the profiler is connected via ethernet cable and my profiler rack is wireless now! It's also working in the 5GHz-range.

2. "Hotspot mode". the router creates it's own wifi and SSIDs. so you can use the ipad on the road.

It's exactly what i was looking for and it's roughly 30€ only.

This is of course without the possibility to use the remote. But I'm just using the 2way switch, so it doesn't bother me.

You would need to install drivers to „translate“ everything. The profiler is not a classical PC like you have at home

I just ordered a TP-Link TL-WR902AC. Will arrive on Wednesday hopefully and then I can tell a little bit about it, if anyone is interested.
in theory it should be possible to use it as a wifi-bridge in my home Network and as a standalone Router on Stage.

Does anyone know how the specs of the USB-Ports of the profiler look like? Standard 0,5A/5V?

My ipad air only only has os12 any chance of a version that works with older ipads thanks

I'm not a developer but since v13 iPads use iPadOS and not iOS. So I don't think, there will be an backwards compatibility.

And on the other hand: Hardware that uses iOS 12 is over 7 years old and will not get any security updates any more. So I wouldn't recommend to use it anyway.

have you looked at equipboard? There you can find this: https://www.uberproaudio.com/w…ar-rig-gear-and-equipment

Hope this helps you.

Interesting. Are those studio profiles or merged?

Quote from jojob38

Danke für die schnelle Antwort. Das hilft mir schon mal sehr. Wenn ich es richtig verstanden habe, kann ich eigentlich die einstellungen, die ich für den Kone nutze eigentlich beibehalten. Ich muss nur, wenn ich auf die echte Gitarrenbox wechsle das DI-Profil auswählen und den Kone im Output des Kempers deaktivien?

Gerne. Beim Kone kann ich dir leider noch nicht helfen. Hab selber "noch" keine geholt... Aber hört sich logisch an, da die Imprints ja ähnlich wie die Cabinet-Sektion agieren mMn. Lass es dir aber gerne von wem anders bestätigen.

Und Du kannst natürlich auch noch Output-Presets bauen. Dann musst Du einfach nur das jeweilige Preset laden, je nachdem was angeschlossen ist.

Quote from Atlantic

Very interesting post.

Here is the "learning curve" of the profiling on the Kemper that I mentioned. I am not an expert making profiles, and I am also not a musical engineer. I´m a dentist.

So if I want to get my Diezel captured/profiled to be able to take my sounds on an easier package... which one of both devices you think gets ME the best results?

I was using Diezel profiles before I bought my own Diezel. But my Diezel sounds better than the best Diezel profiles I was using. That is why I found the need to get my own profiles. But the QC, in my hands, got it closer.

There is no doubt that the Kemper has some amazing tweaking parameters but there is also a skill involved.

Asking this because I really think that most Kemper/QC users are not musical engineers or even have very accurate studio monitors and rooms to be able to make great profiles.

I think you have a valid point.

Kemper had a different target audience when they launched the Profiler: (Semi-)Professionals who want an exact copy of their equipment and then tweak the s**t out of it.

In my eyes that's also the point why there is no touchscreen and other "modern" stuff. It's not reliable for the road. And when the Profiler development started (before 2010 for sure ) the iphone wasn't even released and touchscreen were really shitty to be honest. And you usually don't change the whole design a few years into development...

Neural (in my eyes) is coming from software plugins and modelling. That's why they were focussing to develop a modern UI and use touch screen (which are way cheaper today). And i'm pretty sure, that their development started much later then the Profiler

ckemper wrote a few pages back here something interesting about this:

Neural Quad Cortex

When Profiling was developed, we have decided to give it an interactive aspect. That is, the user is asked to refine the Profile if needed by playing his guitar dynamics and the machine listens to it.

While we saw the interactive profiling and the amp parameters as a chance for achieving the best profiling results, it now seems to be a burden for those that have a different dedication.

Maybe it's time to rethink our approach.

Ich würde empfehlen den Monitor-Output zu nehmen. Also Monitor Out -> Endstufe -> Cabinet.

Und dann in den Output-Einstellungen "Monitor Cabinet Off" (https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qiqz-6dVKi0/maxresdefault.jpg). Dann ist der Cabinet-Teil auf dem Ausgang grundsätzlich deaktiviert. Egal ob das Profil ein Cabinet "eingebacken" hat oder nicht.

Bei DI-Profilen kannst Du gar kein Cabinet aktivieren/deaktivieren, weil es keins gibt. Das siehst du am Profiler dann auch daran, dass der Cab-Button aus ist und auch nicht aktiviert werden kann.

Du kannst aber natürlich auch einen Main Output nehmen. Ich persönlich würde aber den Monitor-Out nehmen, da Du den Main-Out dann mit Cabinet im Profil zu einem Mischpult schicken kannst.

Something interesting for the "nerds"/IT-people here:
NeuralPi is a guitar pedal using neural networks to emulate real amps and pedals on a Raspberry Pi 4.

https://github.com/GuitarML/NeuralPi

I don't have any spare raspberry at the moment, but I would love to play with it soon.

this is exactly what people descripe as "dual profiles", "2 profiles merged as one" or stuff like that.

But there is always a workaround. In a studio situation you would record a DI-Track and then reamp it on two tracks with two profiles or record it a second time with a different profile to double the track.

(What Tonejunkie and others are doing, is mixing two microphone signals from two different amps into one stereo track.)
