I found the numbers fine working by trial and error. It is probably a rarely used feature and not too difficult to figure out.

It seems unlikely that the Kemper would do this. You can approach Focusrite very easily for them to look at the 6i6 though and their repair prices are reasonable. In fact I did this with an out of warranty Saffire and they didn't even charge, as it was considered a small problem. They paid for carriage too!

Thanks Kemper for the awesome sounding reverbs!
I now have 0 pedals in my rig!
The size&mix-knobs don’t work and reverb can’t be shut off with button press, as have been reported before. But i’m sure you’ll fix this before final release.
Again, thanks!
Will the size & mix knobs work in the slot labelled reverb still? I cannot update due to live shows-:(

I got a chance to try all of those ideas the other night. Using mometsry swichtes makes it easy enough to press just about as quickly as I can tofggle a pickup selector switch. However, none of them produce a Kill Switch type effect. i can push the footswitch faster than the Kemper can react so if I press fast enough the guitar stays on. I presume this is actually intentional as a way to stock audio clicks or something. However, part of the Morello type effect is the switching click. Unfortunately,I think I have to admit defeat on this one. It seems the only way to get the effect currently is to use the guitar pickup selector. Which makes the OPs request a very valid idea.
That makes a lot of sense Alan. I use midi program changes live and you have to move the command ahead of where you want it to change. I also use control change to automate the eq set to zero as a mute in a couple of places. It is never instant.

Try adding Loop Mono to Slot A, and use the above settings.
With nothing connected to the Loop, 100% Mix will silence the guitar.
This sometimes adds noise if nothing is plugged into the loop. Better to just assign an eq with the volume turned down?

Can we try a public profile from Rig Manager? So we can record it too and compare it with yours.
Mago 6505+ Green2 for example.
The best solution. You also have to remember that a lot of metal tones outside of a mix will sound fizzy. As soon as you have it double tracked and cymbals/hats are there, it might sound dull without the fizz.
I use a darker tone live than when recording to achieve the same result.

You mean, "... you're not going to hear that much variation, at least, nowhere near what you'd hear through an FRFR cab, studio monitors or headphones with the Kemper Cab block on", V8? I could swear I heard this somewhere recently.
This relates to a tube amp situation as well. The choice of cabinets often add more character to the sound than the amplifiers.
-
It gets me the best sounds I have ever had live and see it as an amp. If something considerably better came along, I'm sure most of us would jump ship, but it hasn't happened yet for me.
-
A merged/direct profile is one created with a DI box. So basically for a normal studio profile the Kemper has to guess where the amp ends and the cab begins when you turn off cab simulation.
A merged/direct profile is created without the cab involved. So you theoretically get exactly what the head sounds like.
Nice one Dogmatix and this is what you need to know. Don't trust a studio profile to use with the cab turned off. It is just an approximation and sometimes sounds harsh. Best to try direct and then there are relatively few merged anyway.
I started this way and now just use in ears and go direct without a cab. You simple need time to acclimatise to the genious of the Kemper.

They used to call this Vegas Mode on mixing desks:-)

Not that I know of, Karl.
The thread-title font size was increased 'cause a bunch of Kemperites complained that they couldn't read it easily. Instead of bumping it up a bit at a time, it underwent one huge jump in size, which was shocking at first and took a while to get used to, but there've been no more complaints about reading difficulty.
Of course, you could use Safari's "Page Zoom" preferences window to set the forum to be 85, 75 or 50% of the standard size, but you'd have to endure smaller text overall.
Thanks for the reply and it does get a little easier with time. If this helps forum members that are visually less fortunate, it is worth the inconvenience.

No. Just a power amp to run a speaker. Without that you have line level.
-
Is there a way I am missing to resize the text of the forum? The tread titles are now huge on El Capitan unless I reduce the window size to half on the Macbook.
-
You only need the power head if you plan on running a speaker cab with direct profiles. Supposing you plan to go direct to the PA, this will not be needed. You can always run a standard Kemper into a separate power amp later if you change your mind.
-
Interesting idea and you could address them with control change. You wouldn’t be saving anything in a live situation though with the iPad changing either rig or transpose.
I guess your motivation is to have less rigs on your Kemper?
-
I feel like I can learn a lot from these videos. I wish Kemper would have their artists go more in depth about how they use them for different things. That could help a lot of us!
Maybe Thomas is not an endorsee and simply bought his Kemper.
-
Right! I forgot that transpose is now a Rig function in the latest firmware. It used to be available as a separate stomp only.
The only downside with this is that "smooth chords" is not available in the rig version.
-
You know what would also be cool... if a wireless unit could take realtime impedance measurements from both the transmitter AND receiver, then mirror those values on the other side. I'm sure there's some law of physics that would be violated.
I just wonder if the punters would notice:-)
-
Sounds like latency through the interface really.

Their transmitters have been an issue for a while. The belt clips on them are a joke, to be honest. I keep mine in a pouch, seems to be the best solution honestly.
It must just be the way we all use them differently. The G50 is my favourite, after having Sennheisers, Nadys and a Smoothhound.
I have the belt pack clipped on my back pocket without any problems and it is the first digital system without dropouts.
