Hi!!
I have a bad connection problem or some kind of failure in the switches II and IIII of the stomps. Sometimes I have to step on them three or four times to connect or disconnect them.
At first I fixed it with a contact cleaner but this didn't last long and I have the same problem again.
I don't know if anyone has had the same problem, or if you have any idea how to fix it.
The other switches and those of the rigs work correctly.
Greetings
welcome!!!!
welcome to the forum
To answer your original question, I purely use Rig volume to balance my rigs, many are way over 0db and sound fine to me :).
Amp volume is another alternative.
I'm glad to read that 👍
Thank you very much to everyone for your help
It's just a volume control, so unless you have a drive effect in the EFFECTS section (?), a higher volume will not change the sound.
In the effects section I only have an equalizer, tremolo, delay and reverb.
Doesn't the amp volume affect the behavior of these effects?
If they receive the highest signal shouldn't it be so?
That is true. But wouldn't you rather all your amp rigs pushed the post effects the same way? Use the amp volume to accomplish even output across different rigs.
It could be, at the moment I had only thought about Rig volume
Thanks for your answer. Until now I have not wanted to touch the volume in the amp section because I suspect (I don't know if I'm right) that the volume in this place pushes the later effects more strongly, which would vary the sound. On the other hand, in Rig volume (as far as I understand) increasing it increases the volume of the Rig without affecting any parameter.
I have a performance with rigs that I really like, but the amp profile is a bit low on volume. It is noticeable compared to other performance.
Rig volume is at 0 db and I was wondering what would be more correct, to increase dbs in rig volume even if it exceeds 0 dbs, or to lower the volume of all the other rigs of the other performances?
I understand that there is no magic bullet in the kemper to solve this (just like in any amplifier) but surely there are some guidelines, steps or indications that help you find the way, such as Kim_Olesen's advice. It won't be generic or a one-size-fits-all solution, but it's a good starting point for a quick fix at a time when there's no time for more. That's what I wanted to find out.
And I think it's not a "how do I mix my live band" problem because this happened when I tested my sound by myself, before testing with the rest of the band.
In any case, I appreciate any help and advice.
Thanks a lot.
I seem to understand that the question is how to compensate for volumes by morphing on the same rig.
It's very simple press the rig button, use the left and right navigation arrows until you find "rig volume". Set the two volumes you want with Morph and without Morph just like you did with gain... They will change both parameters at once.
Then press 2 or 3 times "store" to store
As i said, apply the high cut at 6500 and a lot of your problems will be solved. Take this from someone whe has played with no mics on the cab for 30 years.
Ok. Thanks for your help ?
As you are already familar with running live sounds and your own FOH system you should have no problem EQ'ing at the mixer to suit the different environments you play as you would with any other guitar amp.
If I had no problems, I wouldn't be asking. I still have a lot to learn and I'm just looking for help and keep learning.
Greetings
I would be much simpler to dial in your rigs at a live volume in the first place to avoid the risk of needing to fix it later.
The problem I have is that with my band, depending on where we play, we do it at a different volume. Bars, pubs, hotels, some festivals... they are different volumes and to that add that we rarely play with a sound technician. We almost always do everything ourselves
when in a previous message I wrote: :I think you haven't explained yourself well" I meant "I think I haven't explained myself well", I was referring to myself.
My English problems, sorry.
That's what I meant by my question. That's more or less what I did, but I wanted to know if there was another more effective alternative.
And I also ask all this because many times the treble and presence parameters make me doubt which of them to readjust for a tone that is too dark or too shrill. Maybe I should open another post about the difference between treble and presence and how each influences the sound, so as not to mix songs, and so as not to overwhelm you with my doubts ??
Thank you very much ?
Hello and welcome ! take your time..but learn how to save cabs soon, whenever you find a cab you like save it, the cabs are the key to good sounds..
cheers
In my opinion this is very important. If someone had explained it to me before, it would have saved me a lot of work hahaha??
the "definition" parameter in the amp section varies the tone a lot, try it. But as you have been told, first look for a profile that is close to what you are looking for.
welcome
I think you have not explained well. It's my juggling with English, sorry.
What I'm asking is not "where" but "what" is the "quick fix" I should do: Definition? or Treble? or presence? Or high cut in eq? Or a mixture of all?
I mean, which of those parameters (or combination) would compensate for that volume increase that makes the sound higher/shrill?
To give a hint, Kim_Olesen's answer of the cutoff at 6500 is in line with what I'm trying to find out.
Thanks for your help
The first time this happened to me I tried to delay the concert a few hours but the sound technician got a little nervous and wanted to grab me by the neck... It wasn't that big of a deal, was it? ???
Anyway, I've decided to ask you this silly question before playing with the health of others and with my neck, of course ?
Suppose you have your rigs ready for live. On the day of the concert in the sound check you realize that the general volume is higher than you had calculated and therefore some of your rigs (rigs with more volume) sound too high-pitched/shrill due to the effect of the Fletcher&Munson curve
Without time to carefully equalize, what do you think would be the fastest and most correct adjustments?
Lower definition, lower treble? Lower presence? A bit of everything?
Surely I was late to answer but at least I will leave the information on how I do it in case someone is interested. I have used Kemper with Boss RC 300 loop station in the following way.
From the out of the Kemper to the in of the Boss.
Boss main out to a mixer channel
Suboutput from Boss to another channel of the mixer.
I use one of the Boss outputs for the direct output of the guitar and the other for the looper. This way in the mixer I control the guitar and the looper separately without bending over.
Thanks all ?
