Thank you all for comments. It confirmed my suspicion that there is not a global ‘gain control’ parameter that I can use. I will try at first with the volume knob of my guitar and in case this affects the tone too much, I will make a 2nd set of the performances adjusted for my 2nd guitar. Thanks for all advice and enjoy the day.

I have a set of presets and performances configured that sound great and I all use with a certain guitar. Now I want to try a change to another guitar, but this guitar has a higher output (not active). As a result some of my clean sounds start sounding a little distorted.
Is there a way to cut down the higher input signal of my 2nd guitar without changing all setups / performances? I also do not want to put down the volume knob of my guitar, as I am afraid it will influence tone.Thanks for any suggestions.

I am getting older and have problems to to read the small characters ook the display of my Kemper profiler. I have been trying various settings but do not see much improvement.
What settings / background color you think is best to read ? (in dark environments as stage).
Thanks for your advice

Yeah, those are Barefoot buttons. Not cheap, but love them.
This is the website: https://barefootbuttons.com
(but you can sometimes also buy them at local shops and sites)

So I received the roller knob I mentioned in the beginning of this item - it works perfectly - great way to control my monitor volume on stage.
Highly recommended.

I will answer my own question: The mission pedal has 10k Ohm, so I guess that's what I need.

I want to use an on stage monitor with the Kemper and I want to be able to adjust the monitor volume with a roller knob, attached on the Remote. I think a roller knob is more precise than a volume pedal (and much smaller).
I'm thinking about this one: http://this1smyne.com/shop/me-mini-expression-pedal/
My question is: I can order this with 10k, 25k, 50k, 100k or 250k resistance. Which one should I choose?
Or are there better alternatives?
Thanks for the help!

The Remote controller now facilitates two display options.
I would like to request a third option, because both current options are no good for me.Let me first explain how I use my Remote. I use performance mode.
I think it is too much switching it have a single bank for each song.
So my Bank 1 is called "Standard" and the 5 slots are filled with: Clean, Overdrive, Distortion, Heavy Dist and Solo.
I also have similar banks for Supertramp sounds, Acoustic sounds, Police songs and so on.My problem is that I can not read the texts in the 5 slots (bottom line). I have heard complaints also from other people that these texts are pretty small to read standing up at a dark stage.
My perfect perfect display would therefore be:
Top Line: The name of the Bank (same as now)
Bottom line: the 5 slots and their name
Middle Line: The name of the slot that is selected (yes, big).If you can provide this as option C, this would be very useful. I think it is not that big of an enhancement to make.
Thanks!!

I can recommend to buy and use the profiles of Bert Meulendijk for acoustic guitar. I use them for 6 string and 12 string. Plug-and-play, sounds wonderful, nothing else needed.

Thanks for your tips. I will use the method with the tape around a few knobs - simple and effective. Thank you all.

Hi all,
First of all, I love my Kemper. I really think it is a revolution in guitar world. I have the following question. During my last gig I found myself often on a very dark stage. I found that I had trouble using my Remote. Yes, there are a few bright leds shining down there, but I had trouble to see what is where.
Is this something that you have experienced as well? How do you cope? I am thinking of using a small light, on the other hand that looks so silly. -
I bought and checked out the acoustic package. If you want to play your acoustic guitar, thuis is a must have. I spend a lot If time finding a good profile (free) before. The ones from Bert are great without any editing. And the Price is more than reasonable. So thank you Bert!

OK, I found it.
Page 3 of System Settings. There is a button on the top of the screen called " Rig Button Morph" .
If you disable this switch, the behavior is as before the update.
(I guess you can't use morphing with the I-II-III-IV switches now, but that's fine with me) -
I am struggling with something I think has changed since the last update. I am wondering if I can change this.
Lets say that in performance mode I am on performance 1 and I have four stomp boxes assigned to buttons I-II-III-IV. These stomp boxes are not active at the start when I select performance 1.
What I really liked that in case I had switched on two stomp boxes (by clicking buttons I and II), I could get quickly to the start of the performance (with no stomp boxes selected) by just pushing button 1 again.When I try that now, the selected stomp boxes do not get deselected like before. I think that has changed since the last software release.
Do you recognize this and do you know if I change this back to the old behavior?
Thanks for your help,
Ed

It sounds to me there is something wrong with your Kemper Unit. If I were you, I would replace it and discuss guarantee with support.

Hi Danides,
I am not sure if I understand your issue right. I think this is simpel ? I myself have a small flight case including the Kemper and my IEM unit.
The signal chain is as follows:
Guitar > Kemper In (front)
Kemper OUT >>> Central Mixing Board (mono)
In the central mixing board I create a separate mix for my personal IEM, this sits on e.g. AUX 4
AUX 4 from central mixing panel >>> IEM unit in my flight case
And than the IEM wireless to my ears (no other monitor)
I make my own mix for my IEM with the guitar as loud as I want.
Why don't you do it this way?Best regards,
Ed -
Hi everybody,
I just made my first two profiles and uploaded them to the rig exchange:
- All Bluetick Clean >>> My Alessandro Bluetick amp, great for fender like clean tones, add overdrive by increasing guitar volume
- Mario SM57 1 >>> A bass profile, based on Sansamp pre-amp, Ampeg ampI spend 15 minutes for both profiles and like them a lot. Please tell me what you think and how to improve.
Thanks,
Ed

One of my bands covers this tune - use the harmonizer, 5th up, in one of the first four effects slots (a - d). If you place it post amp then it's too smooth.
Thanks, I will give it a try.

Hi,
I want to play "Owner of a lonely heart" from Yes, which has some very typical guitar sounds (with octaver and so on in the solo).
I am pretty sure the Kemper will cover it all, but before I put a lot of effort in it I am wondering: did somebody already made some nice rigs for this song?
Thanks a lot and best regards,
Ed -
It happened exactly the same to me last week. When doing so, all the settings in the SYSTEM menu go back to default. So use a backup or write down your settings to get back to your start situation. All other settings didn't change. I have no clue why the system restore happened. The only thing that I am not sure about is if perhaps the power was shut down while the Kemper was in the shutdown phase itself?
