Any sound samples Jamie?

Have a look at the Clean Sens & Dirty Sens on the input section as well

Quote from V8guitar

Get the principle of the XT-1 although still don't understand how it works, i.e. Do you profile you're current guitar to effectively make it neutral so that you can apply the "profiles"? Otherwise the input would be so variable that the output can't be that accurate ??

Becuase I couldn;t hear any change in the demo e.g. tele sounding like a Les Paul, difficult to understand if its effective..

Thats it yeah.You profile your own guitar then the processor applies necessary changes to that to make it sound like the target guitar ( e.g. - Tele,ES335 etc.... )

Trust me , its very effective once its set up properly.

I assume you have the 'bass boost' off in the Output Section MKB?

I have one for the last couple of weeks and have 'profiled' a few of my guitars ( Suhr Custom,Charvel GG,Godin A6 and Danelectro 59x ) with brilliant results.

I'm not sure how it could work with the Kemper really as each 'source' guitar is first profiled then a separate guitar is set as the 'target'.

I assume that the 'algorithm' somehow calculates the difference between them and then adds that to the source guitar input.All of this is before the guitar signal even gets to the amp.

I bought the Kab about 7/8 weeks ago ( time is a bit of a blur these days! ).

Over the years I have tried MANY different options for monitors; EV powered FRFR, EV non powered, Cornford,Mesa Rectifier Cab,Hiwatt,Centrepoint and more....

I have to say that the Kab sounds like the best solution I've used so far ( but I havent gigged it yet !!! )

Thanks for the reply Aehaem.

Yeah, there isnt a midi in though, just a usb.It would mean using a midi interface.

I wonder if the 'square' usb connection out of the KPA into the XT1 would work?

Is anyone using the Sim1 XT1 live? I got one and am wondering what the easiest way of switching is.

I've had this for a few days now , truly amazing unit.

The software is a little awkward to use and isn't as intuitive as the Kemper.

All in all its a thumbs up from me !

Hi Gerald, Havent heard from you for a while.Hope all is well with you and your family.

Thanks for the profiles ! Looking forward to trying them out !!!

I should have mine towards the end of the week and I'll report back then ST

Thanks for your replies.

Thinking through the playing experience it looks like I will have to tap the SIM1 XT-1 one or more times every time I change change pickups on the guitar I'm playing. For example:

On the guitar, switching from the bridge pickup to the neck pickup - the blade switch moves through one, two, three, four notches but of course, you can do that in one smooth movement. On the floor, I have to tap up or down button, one, two, three, four times. That feels like a lot of thinking and coordination to switch pickups. That might be a big obstacle in the studio, but I can imagine getting out-of-sync when playing live.

Ingolf, am I missing something?

You can Midi Change but according to this video I think you need a midi / USB convertor ;

https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2288749731340231

'SIM1 can read Program-Change MIDI commands via the most popular MIDI-to-USB adapters, and to re-route program Changes as a midi-through feature.Through the Editor you can even configure your XT-1 as a Midi Master mini Pedalboard, to control other devices'.

So I'm assuming KPA midi out ( via convertor ) to Midi in on Sim1. I'll probably set up a performance per guitar type ( 3 or 4 guitar types max.a night will do me )

then for example , Telecaster Clean Neck : Stomp 1 , Tele Crunch Neck:Stomp 2 , Tele Lead Neck : Stomp 3, Tele Crunch Bridge : Stomp 4, Telecaster Lead Bridge : Stomp 5 etc...

Is there an easier way ?

pulled the trigger, should have later on this week

The Tone Junkies John Mayer PRS Signature Amp profiles are great as well by the way

You shouldnt need a new cable.If you have a standard USB cable like one that you use for a printer then that will work.

Put the flat end into the PC and the more square one into the KPA.

Well worth the money !

Have been thinking of buying one of these.Has anyone here gigged it?

I'd love to use one guitar for multiple different guitar sounds on any gig without having to carry multiple guitars around !

Also,if this re-creates well then I could potentially select my best playing guitar action wise and feel wise and use that instead of worrying about the actual output sound?

Robman very nice, the incredible Steven Wilson. What a genius... reminds me of my alltime favorite from Porcupine Tree.... Blackest Eyes
