Well, the Kemper arrived today, only had a short time to power it up and have a go but all seems well so far. Updated it and played through my valve amps cab with a celestion blue in it with some two rock profiles.. sounded amazing, really great. Thanks for the help everyone, just got to order a cab now, I think I'm just gonna go down the normal guitar cab route, tried FRFR in the past and wasn't a fan, not sure I want to bother with the Kone either but we'll see.

Congrats!

Output to a preferred cab/speaker is subjective of course. My journey was:

PRS Custom 50 combo 1x12 into the return of the loop. Good but not inspiring

Fender 80w PA. Better but didn't like dealing with the head and 2 10" speakers

Yamaha DXR10. Excellent. Not many complaints and the coverage was fantastic

XiTone MBritt cab. Also excellent. A bit more guitar oriented and started to flap my pant legs on stage

Avatar 2x12 with V30s using Camplifier or SD 700 class D amps. Also good but not inspiring

Kemper Kabinet with Camplifier or SD 700 class D amps. OK... done... that's it for me. Either stereo or mono, and with the profiled speaker or one of the numerous imprints it has the pant flap on stage, and all the tone and feel I want/love.

Enjoy the journey, and I hope you find your grail tones!

Interesting... My old tablet was not automatically signing into the Kemper like my newer phone is.

Now it does. Hmmm...

I have a Pixel 7 Pro running Android 14.

It's not possible to change the slots in performance mode. When clicking on another slot nothing happens.

The white 3 dot menu to the right of the rig name lets you copy a rig and paste in the other slot, among other things...

uninstalling, restarting and re-installing did the trick.

Thank you, dmatthews, for reminding me that in 2023, the good old shutdown and restart is still a viable way to solve software/hardware issues.

And thank you to the Kemper team for delivering this long awaited feature.

Glad I could help!

Enjoy!

Hi,

I connected my Profiler Head to the wifi with and ethernet cable. My router sees the Kemper (an IP is assigned) and I can see that leds are on the Ethernet port of the Kemper.
When I start the Androip app on my phone (Moto G5, Android 8.1), the app can't see the Kemper and it is possible to start the app only in demo mode.

Is there something wrong in the way I am connecting the Kemper to the wifi?

Thanks,
Luca

Hmmm... that's all I did, and it worked immediately for my old tablet running OS 8.1. What OS are you running on the Kemper?

Can you check to see if there are any updates for the phone?

If not I would try uninstalling the app, rebooting the phone, and re-installing the app.

I only use it for vocals myself.

Only with the Stage

Ah yes. Wifi hotspot mode. I was thinking cable.

Quote from JEverly

I am thinking that I read somewhere that there is a direct connect option in there somewhere. I don't remember the details of it but I swear I read that in the manual for the iPhone connection.

Interesting. I don't see it in the manual.

Quote from BayouTexan

Do I have to run the Kemper to a wifi router or can I use the app if the Kemper is USB'd to a computer/laptop with wifi?

Kemper needs to be connected to the router/network.

So far so good! No bugs to report.

Has worked every time on both tablet on Android 8.1 and on my phone on Android 13.

Here is my latest build. The body is red alder with a walnut top. The neck is a maple neck.

Just to see if P90 are for me, I installed 2 Fishman Fluence P90 pickups. Sounds really good.

P90s rarely disappoint. Nice!

Mine still doesn't to the kemper

Are you trying to connect the Stage to your Wifi network, or are you trying to use the Stage as a hotspot?

A couple things of note...

On my older Lenovo Tablet I noticed that when I boot the tablet up, and start the app before it has acquired Wifi, it stops the Wifi from being acquired. No biggie because you can quit the app and the tablet acquires Wifi and restart the app no worries.

Also, when you start the app on the older tablet it finds the Kemper immediately but you need to manually connect to it.

The phone app (when started) immediately finds the Kemper and connects to it automatically.

Just some observations.

Have not found any bugs yet.

Here's a screenshot showing the output section...

Hi, sorry i can't get what is the "ver I page 335" Do you mean the manual?

Yes, the latest main manual.

Just got it working on my unpowered Head.

Fortunately I have a POE switch here at home to run my IP phones, so I have the remote working as well!

As soon as I ran a cat5 patch cord to the Wifi router, and the remote cable to the POE switch, I started the app on my phone. It found the Kemper immediately... nice!

I then installed the app on my old Lenovo Tab 410, and it found the Kemper immediately as well.

Both apps on both devices run in tandem no problem!

I have not yet tried everything, but it's looking good so far.

Switching performance slots on either app switches the other app along with the remote.

Devices I have the app running successfully on:

Lenovo Tab 410. OS = Android 8.1.0

Samsung Galaxy S21. OS = Android 13

Will do more testing after work!

Check the ver 10 main manual page 335.

I didn't know the app was available!

Have now downloaded and have a bit of fun ahead getting it going on my unpowered head!

Quote from Yoda Guitar

The ring is for charging the batterie inside the charging case only, it has no effect to audio signal.
For some active pickup systems you should use a TS Mono adapter.

Yes, my PRS P22 has piezo and needs an adaptor for this type of wireless TRS device. Line6 G10 as well.

Thanks for the info!

Played this last night at practice...
