So, all are in mint condition. $1700 for the rack and remote. Kone bought in December of last year and never gigged out with. Make offer.

It’s the same dimensions as the HX FX and I have never had an issue with that.
And I have big feet and run it in stompbox mode or whatever they call it.
Well, almost the same size. Hx is 7.9” deep x 10.8” wide. Qc is listed as 7” deep x 11.4” wide. And a good portion of that depth is screen. And again, fewer switches on HX. If it’s comfy, great! Looks a little crowded to me. We’ll see.

Dude, the buttons are no further apart than the smaller helix and stomps that people use just fine.
Again, by no means am I a NDSP fanboy but some of the “cons” or “complaints” that keep being mentioned here are so trivial or yet to actually be seen. Much to make out of nothing.After playing around with an FM3 for a week, where’s the Fractal whining thread because that little unit is quite good for $999.
I like the Stomp. I’ve never tried any Fractal stuff, but I’m sure it’s great too. But as far a switches go, you’re talking about devices that have three foot switches as opposed to a double row of ten, I believe. Maybe I’ll be surprised when I get it, but when I see someone’s hand looking rather large next to it, I feel it whispering “desktop” to me. At least that’s how I’ll be using it at first. Being wrong would be a happy surprise. All that said, I’m still in the camp of having my gear safely behind me with just the profiler remote out front. I’ve had too many drunks step on my stuff, trip over cables, knock my microphone into my mouth, etc... Choices? What a wonderful time to be a gear nerd:)

I don't understand this. To me it seems like it was in fact designed for live use.
For example, I have both the Rack/Remote and the Stage. Each one requires the same number of cables to hook up at a gig, the difference is that with the Stage I have two less things to haul to the gig. What am I missing?
I think the physical size and the spacing of the foot switches kinda tells you it’s not the best option for live. Anyone other than Yosemite Sam is gonna be hitting wrong switches at some point. It’s gonna need some type of remote for guys and gals who do any tap dancing with patches.

So is buying a Quad Cortex
I’ll probably get one because I can and I’m curious. I also have a Kemper and a Helix. I’ve seen your posts on both sites. And while things started off fairly cordial and full of genuine dialogue, things have slowly devolved to proving how clever we can be with our responses. For example? You’re winking and blowing kisses like you’re Doc Holiday in Tombstone. It’s gonna be a fine unit. Good for some folks and not for others. Whether you feel their reason for concern is valid or not is immaterial. It’s valid to them. You don’t have to be the huckleberry to every nay sayer.
Seacrest Out?

Has anyone seen anybody using this thing with their feet? Let’s see that! Without an extra cost of adding some kind of midi controller, I don’t think it’s gonna fly live. Kinda negates the unit size as a virtue, doesn’t it?

So you suggest that I should take another guitar with lower output, profile the amp in a way that I don't want and change the master output of the Profiler to get to some place that I didn't want to go to in the first place? You see how this simply doesn't work?
I see what you’re saying. However, (and admittedly without much thought) What would happen if you attenuate the signal from the guitar you want prior to setting up and dialing in your sound? Could you achieve the tone you're after with THAT guitar if it’s output was less? Would this then allow you to reduce input sensitivity by the same amount on KPA? It certainly doesn’t seem ideal, but perhaps a workaround. Maybe I’ll try doing this for my own benefit. Sorry if my queries are annoying or ignorant.
-
Well that is emphatic lol. Is there a reason why the answer is no? I apparently am ignorant and would love some insight as to why not. Perhaps your ear is far more discerning than mine. I’ve had success with sounds that behave in a touch sensitive manner as you described without super hot input. I might need to tweak in the amp section to get what I’m after, (Usually compression) but I get there and the KD interacts as advertised. You certainly don’t owe me explanations, but if I can learn something from you, I happily will.

Thanks a lot, Atlantic
As a huge fan of dynamic amp rigs, I love how soft picking/strumming keeps the amp (relative) clean. But once you wanna "rock", you'd naturally strum harder. So this hard strumming is supposed to push the amp ... and the overdrive is supposed to help pushing.
Is it not possible to lower the input signal and choose a profile which will achieve this? If the internal drives behave properly at a lower input signal, the proper profile and higher master output gets you where you want to be, no?

Was SPDIF changed in any way with this new beta? I am now getting pops all the time and this is at 48khz using the profiler as master. I have tried it as slave too and it's the same. I know it's not my pc because it worked fine before I updated. FYI..
Yes
Audio
fixed: sound anomalies of Full OV in DLY and REV modules
improved: S/PDIF slave capability of classical PROFILER models built since 2019
added: new effect types Kemper Drive and Full OC
fixed: accidental sound anomaly of Spring Reverb

Thanks for going through the trouble to figure that out! I kinda figured that was going to be the case, but hoped for the improbable. Separate cabinets it is then.
-
Just so I understand better in comparing the Kone/Kab with the Line 6 PowerCab...
This is what I would like to know, and maybe it’s already been said somewhere. Will the Kone still behave as an frfr with the Helix? If so, then gigging with either Kemper or Helix, or maybe both, and one cab would still be possible.
-
Yeah, I haven’t been here during the holidays. I posted in another related thread that I think you might be referring to. Have you checked with the latest beta? Any success with it?
-
Original poster, that is my predicament. Haven’t been able to check latest RM beta as of yet. Hoping it all gets ironed out. I’m sure it will. At this point, I found a deal on a Helix that was too good to pass on. Brand new half price??♂️ My original intention was to flip it, but.....
Traded a MIM tele for a JTV 59 Variax. I gotta say it sure makes for a fun combo for live gigs. My Kemper isn’t going anywhere, but it might just become a permanent fixture in the studio.

Updated to latest betas of RM and KPA and running on Mac OS 10.12.6
The situation is such that RM sees my profiler and appears to sync with it. However, it does not allow me to interact with the profiler. That is to say that if I attempt to audition a profile from the desktop, nothing changes on the Kemper. Also, the editor is not available to me. No more crashes though.
-
Thanks but it's still not working on my mac (OS Catalina). RM crashes as soon as I plug my Kemper...
I'm in the same boat. Still crashes on Startup. when I reopen, it doesn't see any of my profiles and the Kemper endlessly attempts to sync with Rig Manager. 10.12.6
-
As others have reported, on both my iMac and MacBook running OS 10.15.1, after updating my Profiler to 7.1.7 and installing RM 3.0, RM will open and start synching, then crash and shut down. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times on both computers. Same result. I even tried installing RM 3.0 on my VERY old MacBook running 10.13.6, samre result.
This must be some sort of Mac - USB - Kemper thing. Possibly unrelated, but whenever my Profiler is connected to my MacBook and the Macbook isn't connected to an external power supply, (i.e., running on battery only) my Profiler would freeze up and need re-booting (this with the official RM release before 3.0). This too was not unknown or unreported on this Forum. The suggestion was this was a Kemper- USB issue. Dunno.
While unable to run RM 3 at this point is frustrating, it is somewhat comforting knowing my problem is shared by a number of others. It's not just me!
Ditto here. Started off fairly well, but has since exhibited exactly what you have going on. Rig manager crashes, I reopen it and Profiler attempts to sync to no avail. iMac OS 10.12.6

Running Mac OS 10.12.6
Movement of the physical Knobs on Kemper animates in the editor, but mouse dragging on a virtual knob sees the cursor disappear and not make changes.
Just realized the virtual scroll wheel on the wireless mouse actually does move editor knobs. ?. Shift + scroll wheel does the higher resolution adjustments.

I dunno. My seems pretty stable and responsive since the update. RM is much more usable for me as well. ??♂️(7.09)
