Original cable?

If so, could it be that the cables is damaged?

What makes you believe, that the fact that you are erroniously using the Up/Down buttons of the RIG navigation cross to change the Slot - while the Slots are displayed horizontally on the screen and the Remote's Rig Buttons are organized horizontally - is a common user problem and if we changed that logic, more users would be satisfied and not less?

In Browser Mode the Up and Down buttons don't engage any filters. They take bigger steps while Left and Right step by one. And those bigger steps are dependent on the "Sorted By" criteria selected. If you select "Sorted by Name", Up/Down jump to the next starting character. If you select "Sorted by Date", Up/Down jump to the next date and so on. This is the case since day 1 and I cannot remember that this has ever been criticised. So, why do you think, this doesn't serve "the user"?

Generally, this concept of "the user" is an oversimplification. We have many users with different background, different workflow, different preferences, different needs. If we would add an option for every corner case user request, the product would be unmanageable as a consequence - for every user. We don't intent to create SAP for guitar players. And even there: If you implement SAP, you better accept to adapt their application philosophy. That applies to any standard software.

By the way, this has little to nothing to do with this thread.

Die Rigs haben sich allerdings im Vergleich zu 5.5 nicht geändert. Wenn man also einen PROFILER besitzt, der z. B. mit 5.5.2 ausgeliefert wurde, fehlen einem nach dem Upgrade nur diejenigen Effekt-Presets, die zu den neuen Halleffekten gehören, die mit 5.7 und 6.0 veröffentlicht wurden. In dem Fall reicht es aus, im System-Menü auf die Taste "Factory Presets" zu drücken und die fehlenden Presets werden automatisch importiert.

Select "My Rigs" in your Kemper user account. There you can delete Rigs.

Never heard before, that RM performs a downgrade. Please open a support ticket.

A complete reset to as delivered state is not in the manual, because we want to make sure, that if it's done, it's done for good reasons and with the understanding, that it wipes out all former content and settings. The whole internal maintenance mode is intentionally not documented by us.

The ReadMe is indicating, that since OS 5.7 the preinstalled content (Rigs, presets, Performances) is NOT included completely in the OS anymore, because of file size limitations:

changed: Factory content not completely included in operating system file (kaos.bin) anymore, just presets. Consequently Factory Rigs function in System Settings renamed to Factory Presets.

That explains, why you were missing the Rigs after the exercise.

Since you have recovered the Rigs and everything is working I see no reason for another reset.

You seem to be looking for issues, where there are none. Your Rigs, presets, and Performances don't appear during an update.

The Room Size reflects the former reverb type e. g. Room Size "Ambience" = the former reverb type "Ambience".

What you are referring to as the "full factory reset" is an unofficial procedure, which might have wiped out all Rigs as well as cleared the edit buffer of your PROFILER. Since OS 5.7 the factory default pool of Rigs is not included in the software anymore because of size limitations. We recommend this procedure only on a case by case basis and under our guidance.

"Crunch" is the default hard-coded Rig, which appears, when the edit buffer had been cleared.

Der konsequenteste Ansatz wäre, eben nicht über eine Gitarrenbox zu spielen, sondern über eine neutrale full-range Box. Dann läßt man den PROFILER die Gitarrenbox bei E-Gitarren-Sounds simulieren. Und mit der A-Gitarre spielt man z. B. Profile eines Fishman Preamps. Ich selbst verwende dazu Factory Rigs "Acoustic A" bis "Acoustic E". Die findet man in Rig Manager unter den Rig Packs.

Da die Input- und Output-Routings globale Einstellungen sind, bleibt einem ansonsten nur als Workaround eine Effect Loop in die Rigs für A-Gitarre einzubauen z. B. Loop Mono in Modul REV und den AER aus dem SEND zu speisen. In dem Augenblick, wenn die Effect Loop eingeschaltet wird, wird der normale Signalfluß unterbrochen und der SEND wird aktiv. Die Source des DIRECT OUTPUT sollte man auf "Off" stellen, damit der AER bei E-Gitarre - wenn die Effect Loop abgeschaltet ist - nicht mitspielt.

Every day another urgency …

What is counterintuitiv about the RIG Navigation Cross?

Left button steps one Slot to the left.

Right button steps one Slot to the right.

Up button steps on Performance up.

Down button steps one Performance down.

Use those buttons and you are in edit mode.

Use the Rig Buttons of the Remote and you are in play mode.

No reverb type has disappeared! The "old" reverb types were consolidated into one type named "Legacy Reverb" with the new parameter "Room Size" corresponding to the old type names. The sounds didn't change and all the options are still present.

This situation has been reported a view times. And it was always caused either by Parallel Path OR by people underestimating how much the acoustic string signal cuts through. Nobody has ever demonstrated a real issue. If you can, please open a support ticket and send a recording of the issue and a backup reflecting the recording setup.

Being a Favorite is an attribute of a Rig. When you flag a Rig as your favorite or unflag, this is precisely reflected by the list of favorite Rigs.

I wouldn't recommend to print it out. These manuals are evolving corresponding to the evolution of the OS. In the meantime the document is named Main Manual and there will be a new revision with upcoming OS 7.0. The PDF documents include hyperlinks and you can search.

The next RM revision corresponding to PROFILER OS 7.0 will include preset management.

The logic is described in the manual. We try to distinguish between editing and temporary changes during a live performance.

If I activate for example a Delay Freeze or initiate Morphing of Pedal Vinyl Stop or switch Rotary Speed to "fast" in Slot X, leave to another Slot, and return to Slot X, I would like to load this Slot in its stored default state and not with Pedal Vinyl Stop in toe position, which means signal muted. Otherwise unpredictable odd things could happen. That's why any edits are interpreted as temporary in nature and withdrawn, if you leave a Slot via remote control. If you want to edit your performance permanently, we are assuming you sit in front of your PROFILER anyhow and can use the RIG Navigation Cross to navigate through the Slots. If you store Slot by Slot it makes no difference.

It might depend on how you navigate and load Slots in Performance Mode. If you do it via remote control (PROFILER Remote or MIDI) former edits are withdrawn. So, either navigate with the RIG Navigation Cross or store the Performance before moving to another Slot.

There are many ways to achieve a volume boost via pedal or switch.

Just to confirm - if you want to use the volume pedal, you should set Pedal Range >0 and perhaps lock Volume Pedal. The parameter is described in the Main Manual.

Since OS 5.7.4 we have CC# 35 for this purpose. It controls all "Freeze" in the Rig.

6.0.0.14574 is our new release revision available via Rig Manager and on the KEMPER download page.
