I don't use a Stomp, but do use a Helix. Need the Helix for the Variax support to change tunings and guitar models as desired with a footswitch - the Stomp does not provide Variax support. Also use the Helix to incorporate an iPad to do all sorts of stuff like triggering samples, guitar to midi to iOS synth stuff, and more. I currently just run the Helix into the front input of the Kemper and use it like a pedal board for any pre-Kemper effects. After about half a year of gigging this setup, I'm still just scratching the surface of the possibilities of incorporating all of this gear together in a rig. I run Helix XLR out to FOH for the iPad signal, and Kemper XLR out to FOH for my guitar signal. Some sound guys still like to mic my cab and blend that with the Kemper XLR, some prefer the Kemper direct signal only. I still want to explore some ideas like stacking two complete rig setups, split signal, using the Helix for one complete amp setup, and the Kemper for another. I use the onSong app on the iPad to control all changes on the Variax and Helix via midi over USB to Helix, the Helix in turn is configured to simultaneously send the necessary midi data to the Kemper for any changes there. Craziness...

Missed the sale by a couple of weeks, bummer. Great profiles at the regular price even, though!

Thanks for posting Xorezzz. These got by me. Demos sound great, killer playing as well. Gonna look into...

Thanks! Awesome story. Must have been amazing to see Adrian at a pub gig, particularly back in the day. I live in the middle of the US and Grolsch is a favorite here amongst the crew. Dig those flip top bottles...

Thank you for listening!

Thank you! Yes, it's a 2018 Les Paul Tribute. No bells & whistles, but I dig it...and was a great deal.

Hey all.
Finally got around to finishing this cover of Burning Heart. Used to play this one with Dave Pfeifer (the fellow singing on this track) back in the high school band days - when the Vandenberg debut album had just released! Zoiks. Thanks to Dave (vocals) and Tim Pfeifer (drums & keys) for playing on this one!
And thanks for listening!

Any chance this the freeze/hold function can be assigned to a midi CC? Been looking around but have not found an answer yet. I'm currently using a Helix as my controller for the Kemper. Needed to integrate a Variax into my setup, so went with the Helix and sold my Kemper Remote. It was a sad day...

Wish there were plans for the new gizmo to run on an iPad. My iPad is already an integral part of my live rig and being able to access the inner workings of the Kemper from it would be fantastic! I then wouldn't have to be concerned about Windows 7 functionality. Anyone know the minimum macbook specs? May have to go that route if the iPad is not planned to be supported...

Hello all,
Decided to sadly part ways with my Kemper Remote as I've integrated a Helix into my Kemper setup and am using that as a controller. Great condition. Been in this case for any gig usage. $375.
May even sell the custom case in the picture if anyone is interested.
PM me or e mail at [email protected].
Thanks for reading!

Yes, just ran the Boss RC3 directly to the board, as I wasn't using it for looping.
No longer have any use for the RC3. Probably sell it and the Boss FS7 I was using with it, soon...

I was using a Boss RC3 for triggering samples live, but after combining a Helix along with the Kemper so I can incorporate my JTV59 I found out how easy it would be to add an iPad into the equation (like a single USB cable between the Helix and the iPad easy). I found an ios app called SAMPL. Works great, can be triggered via midi CCs assigned to footswitches on the Helix. I'm finding the JTV/Helix/iPad/Kemper rig to be pretty mindblowing...

Marc's one of the best players around, and a super cool dude! Great addition to the community! Definitely check out his stuff, he's killer!

Yeah, I did need to replace the screws. I must have only used the Torx for removal of the originals. I just took the original feet off, looked at how far the factory screws went thru the original feet and found screws for the new feet that allowed for the same length of the screw to protrude. That way I could be comfortable knowing I wouldn't end up going to far into the Kemper with the new screws.
