The answer = morphing

Appreciate the answer but my morphing is reserved for ramping up gain with EQ tweaks. It wouldn't let me control, say... Delay Mix and Reverb Mix independently. But I could be mistaken -- still new here.

Being able to assign a pedal input to Delay Mix, and another to Reverb Mix (or other parameters that are already MIDI controllable) would unlock so many more doors with these new Delays and Reverbs. I understand it's a lot to ask and I'm not expecting anything any time soon as they have a lot going on obviously. Just a feature request that this new Reverb update highlights.

Unplug the Kemper from your computer so that RM doesn't see it.

Gotcha. I was getting an error message about not having the right product but I realized it was just because the update outdated my shortcut All good now. Thanks!

Thanks Kemper! the reverbs sound great I'm a big fan of spring reverbs and this one is amazing (better than my Big Sky!).

I can't turn reverbs (or other FX) off anymore on the KPA if they are loaded in the reverb slot. Switching on/off from the remote works fine. It's not that I WANT to turn the reverbs off! But I thought it's good to mention this.

As others have mentioned it seems that the knobs are not working:

Reverb Slot: not working on any FX type

Mod slot: not working on reverbs (mix&time), working on other FX typs

Same bug here. Oddly enough loading the same reverbs into other Effects and Stomp slots lets them turn on and off with no issue. It's just the Rev module for me.

Also same issue with the time and mix knobs not working.

In RM, go to File/Preferences, check the "Include Beta test Release" box

How does one go about that if Rig Manager won't open because your Kemper is already updated to the beta OS?

I updated Rig Manager before updating the Kemper thinking that would take me to the most current. Didn't realize the Rig Manager was a beta too.

Early reaction is this will let me sell my Ventris dual reverb. The new reverbs are nailing 95% of what I use the Ventris for, and I can even stack 4 stereo verbs on top of 4 mono verbs. Absolutely bonkers. They sound great!

One thing the Ventris lets me do is plug an expression pedal and map it to Reverb Mix so I can blend the Reverb on the fly. Is that still only accessible via MIDI on the Kemper? If it's available I would also like to do the same thing for Delay mix. The more killer delays and reverbs that get released, the more this is requested

Well I made it through all of one preset -- Aftermath -- before I got lost appregiating simple open chords for half an hour. What year is it?

This is going to be a church player's wet dream. (See what I did there?)

Tip of the iceberg here but Spring Reverb with the decay time and distortion way up is some really trippy lo-fi stuff. Decay time even has an infinite option if you really want to go nuts.

Where are the new presets mentioned in the Changelog?

Downloads Page > Rig Packs button.

It's also in the main beta OS zip file download. I just dragged both onto my USB stick at once.

Once you really learned to "read" the KPA everything is easy.Over the past 3 and a half years I have choosen some 20 profiles which just work.I mean no matter if live,recording,jams or whatever.They just work.Like with a good tube amp I can "tweak" while playing them with my fingers to get the sound I need.I "found" them with my studio monitors (Tannoy sys800) which I really know well know for some 20 years.Funny thing is where ever I go with these few profiles they never let me down.

In the end the whole secret sauce about the KPA imo is to use it exactly like an amp.Dont tweak to much.To much EQ will be deadly.Maybe you will think "you got it" for some time but in the end you will not be to glad with the thing.It is the same thing like using a outboard EQ with an old tube amp.In the end it does not work no matter how awesome it sounds just at the moment you made the "tweak".

Oh..and one very important thing..maybe the most important for the whole Kemper profiler story..it is all about the definition parameter!Think of it like the "voicing" functions of the boutique tube amps.Or the "fat"/"modern" switch on a boutique ldc microphone.

So..dont think to much.If you have to think a lot about a profile and how to tweak it to "get perfect"..let it go.Dont look back.Same as you would do with a tube amp you dont like.Saying all that I have to notify that I dont play in a heavy modern rmetal band and the chugging/omph kind of things are something I really dislike.If you have to take care not to interfere into the bass/kick hz something is wrong from the start.And please dont shoot an old school guy..
