The Michael's Craft Store app has a 50% Off coupon this week.

So just search for Michaels coupon online?

I'm ready to purchase through Sweetwater since I have some credit to use but I really hope we don't have to wait too long to do this!

Me too. My sales guy emailed me this morning asking if I wanted in on their preorder list.

Using a bongo/drum bag from CG...cheap and useful....think I can fit in the controller too.....

Found a bag at GC I'm going to grab today. I keep my pedal board with controller wired and ready to go in a pedal board case most of the time. I'm hoping now that I am on the list for the Kemper remote, I will be able to go to a smaller board.

Thanks Pete! That was a huge help (your post). Just got wind that I am now on the preorder list for the Kemper Remote. Very excited.

If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a line at [email protected] - used a GCP with my Kemper for three years, can probably help you set it up if you had any questions or problems.

Interesting your name is Pete. I actually found a very good post on the Pete's Profiles site that walked me through it I got it set for 4 preset mode and all the Instant Access buttons assigned. Well the ones I wanted anyway. Did the tap tempo work ok?

I looked for clips of acoustic sims and didn't find any until AFTER I ordered it! Go figure!

Already re-listed it for sale! Way to go JerEvil!

Would you put this in the loop on a clean patch or right up front?

It's the Mooer Acoustikar. I am using my Kemper in a band specializing in corporate gigs. We have a few songs that need acoustic sounds (Can't Find My Way Home, Can't Always Get What You Want - intro, etc.) but I do not want to have to bring an acoustic, big stand up holder for it, etc. Snagged in on a "Best Offer" from Reverb.com for $55.

Here's some clips of the Mooer:

Awesome. Thanks.

So I have my home computer (iMac), MacBook Pro and another Mac Pro at work. There may be times when i want to bring the Kemper with me for "lunch time shred fests". Is there any known issue with hooking one KPA up to multiple machines?

Anyone here using these with your Kemper? I was planning on using my 1x12 Jet City cab w/Vintage 30 and ISP Stealth power amp. My Kemper will be here Wednesday. I have read plenty of folks using regular old guitar cabs and being perfectly happy with their sound.

Just wondering, should I NOT be one of those people, how do these cabs stack up?

Additionally, if I stick with my 1x12, how do I turn the cab off the profile going to my guitar cab but keep it ON for the direct to FOH sound? Is that through the CabDriver thing? Anyone know where this is explained?

So that's about $600 USD … a little steep but I figured it'd be right in line the the "other guys" foot controller.

I'm running a Voodoo Labs Ground Control. I can access more performance slot rigs than I could ever use, and program the additional switches for any of the Kemper effects. I have one switch for a dedicated tap tempo.
I can program whatever name I want to call the rig, and have it show up on the controller screen.
I can run 2 expression pedals. Street price is $399 USA.
With that said, it would be wonderful to be able to plug in and go, with the KPA footswich, and avoid the midi programming.
Is that worth the extra $200?... probably...

Ooops... add in a TC looper pedal pedal for $100... .we're getting closer!

My Kemper is supposed to be here Wednesday. I will be using my GCP as well. I am totally a midi rookie. Was the GCP easy to set up and set instant access with the Kemper? I got it figured out for my Eleven rack so I assume the process is similar.

Quote from HappyKemper

JerEvil I've seen the dimensions in a thread, search for Stealth.
Here is a thread posted by Gord Olson, putting the Stealth in the back of the kemper.
Poweramp comparison - ISP Stealth vs. Peavey 6505

Awesome! Thanks!

Quote from GOlson

Thanks man! I do drafting and design at a steel fab shop, so I designed some brackets to hold the Stealth in there. They use the KPA's existing holes on either side, and use the existing screws too. Works really well! And yeah, there's just enough room in there to fit the power supply as well. Could hardly ask for a better fit!
Let me know if you (or anyone else) would be interested in a pair of those brackets, I can look into getting some more cut. Would probably be a small cost for material and shipping.

I just bought a stealth as well any chance on taking you up on those mounting brackets?

Anyone have the dimensions of the back cavity of the toaster? Hoping my ISP Stealth will fit right in there

I use an X32 Rack mixer with DSR112 tops over PRX618S-XLF subs. I use IEM's and go directly into the PA with no speaker on stage (I play rhythm guitar and only an occasional lead).

I do multi-track recordings via USB on the X32, then feed the raw input back through the X32 Rack giving me a "virtual band" playing through the PA. I mute everything but my guitar, then tweak the channel eq to my liking. Then I put everything back into the mix and do one last tweak ..... since sometimes what sounds so good by itself doesn't sound so good when you have it in context with the entire band.

I make most of my rigs at home using head phones (Sennheiser HD 280). What I reliably find is that my PA sounds warmer with much more bottom than the headphones. I am thinking of giving my Shure E215's a shot to see if they are any closer to what things really sound like because of this.

With the ability to do virtual sound checks easily in modern (and pretty inexpensive) mixers, the days of my not knowing how I sound out front are completely over.

I have the same headphones I guess it makes sense that if the profile sounds good in those, a pro level PA should sound good as well.

Quote from andyg_prs

I use a Line 6 G30 and do go out front to listen to the sound....but I have to run back and forth to change rigs on the FCB. I use a 2 x 12 cab and mic it....just what works for me....I've not had the time to experiment through a proper PA....didn't like it in the rehearsal room and have trust issues! So I get it sounding as I like through the 2 x 12 cab and then let them mic it.....

I may go this route

So I have a 10 inch powered wedge, and was thinking about selling it. It's not the best wage but it's pretty good. It is an alto TS 110 a. I wonder if I should keep this to reference the profiles I plan to use live. I'll still run my one by 12 guitar cabinet and stealth power amp for stage reference.

Quote from paults

I gave mine a listen in the mains when I first got it, but, not since then. If you are using FRFR onstage, you know what you are sending to the mains. The rest is up to the Sound Tech

i suppose the same is true for any guitar set up a $4k valve rig is still the mercy of the sound man.

Are you running wireless? If so, are you actually getting down off stage to hear your direct tone through the FOH during sound check? Do you ever opt to have the sound man mic your guitar cab (for you non FRFR guys)?

Are you all taking at face value your profiles are sounding as you'd expect? I mean every house system is different as is every sound mans idea of what sounds good
