Mine is having issues, and the language has defaulted to German. It shows over 300 unread posts and won't let me mark them all as read ...

Edit: I found where to change the language, and it removed all the unread posts, which must have been on the German language page.

My forum link is really screwed up, the posts are in English, but everything else is in German. I've been with support about this, and so far they say they can't duplicate the problem. It's like that on every device I have, iPhone, IOS, MacOS and Windows. They told me to go to the upper right hand corner and select "Sprache", but there is no such option anywhere that I can find. When I enter the main site, it has United States checked, but the forum is the way I described it, and I have clicked on every pull down menu option, and there's still no way to correct it.

Maybe that can be achieved by doubling the slots' capability, have two effects per slot, where one press gets you effect A, and a second press gives you effect B.

Guitar modeling (types, 12 string, alt tunings, etc.), ala Roland/Boss, would also be awesome.

Well, I combine those two by GK13 into SY1000, one of the modeled guitars out via sub out into the input of the Stage. Then I have the rest of the SY instruments going into a mixer via main outs, and the Stage also going into the mixer. It's a great combo, but lately, I'm trying to a smaller rig, without sacrificing sound, and am running the SY as part of an aggregated audio interface into Gig Performer, using the same principle as with the stage, but substituting plug-ins for my Stage. I leave my two Kempers at home for recording.

Here are some alternatives, that I have heard good things about.

I can see a new marketing campaign....Kemper...it's so addictive, it's like crack...

That would be spelled Krack, as in Kemper Krack

Back in the late 60's I was told, by someone I trust, that it is the output transformer, that makes the largest difference, and he didn't think to try that.

For my Mac I use Logic, love it! For my windows, so I can revisit older projects from Sonar, I use the new FREE Cakewalk, which is also awesome, and not just because it's free.

It is always interesting to me that 'advancements" for guitar amp tech, are usually centered around perfecting the past tech. What I'm hoping for, is that a genius like CK, actually advances what a string instrument can be made to do. He has his feet in both worlds, and Roland isn't as receptive to giving more than necessary. Only Kemper has delivered way more than promised, after the sale, at no cost, in my 57yrs. as a pro. Please take us out of the 1950's!!!

Well, the members of that forum are very sensitive to issues like that, so the lack of talk about latency, etc., tells me there is no such problem that is noticeable. Every one of my solid bodies have trems, but I have been tempted to put one on my acoustic, or jazz guitars.

How about a Kemper Kombo amp? One twelve, with a second output jack for stereo to another Kab.

I thought it might be, but honestly it sounded a bit better to me, but that could be psychological, because of seeing the extra controls. tried the new Double Tracker with it, and that was an interesting combo.

Well, I stumbled onto the Double Tracker before I watched the tutorial on it. In the video, he always selects the DT from the Equalizer effect section, but since I had not watched the video until later, I went searching for it and found it also under Delays/Dual Chromatic!! After you select Dual Chromatic in rig manager, another sub menu appears and Double Tracker appears, with really unbelievably extensive control settings- about 4-5 times the options, as the one in the Equalizer section. And it really smokes!!! Check it out!

Anything using USB could cause the noise, as the ground part of the USB plug can cause it. One of the cures is to make sure the PC is connected to the same outlet as any equipment that connects.

Yes, of course, but I am referring to using the compare feature within one slot. For instance, if you have settled on 7 of the 8 effects in slots, but you are trying to finish the remaining slot, and you wish to quickly, “a/b” check 2 different effects in the one slot , to see which one works best.

Also, it could be useful, as a “compare” button, when putting together a rig’s effects, where you can listen to two different effects, within a slot, quickly with the touch of a button, or click of a mouse in rig manager.

Well, for instance, when I started using the double tracker, which I do love, I had to give up a slot forgot what I was putting in that position because this seem to be more important but I had to choose..So that would eliminate having to make that choice during different parts of the song for instance. As far as the latency goes, it is pretty minimal when you’re choosing between two affects, even in browser mode, but of course the wizards at Kemper probably have an answer for any latency.
