Display MoreInput Noise gate is a general noise reduction on the input signal for removing guitar noise rather than a traditional noise gate. I would set it as low as you can get away with. I am not a super high gain player so mine is rarely about 2 or 3 but others may use it differently.
There isn't a dedicated input gain to control what hits the AD converters but Clean Sense has an effect on this. Fortunately, the KPA input is quite forgiving so you don't need to get too obsessive about input level.
The main use of Clean Sense is as a global balance between clean and distorted sounds. If clean sounds are all too loud compared to distorted sounds reduce Clean Sense. If too quiet increase Clean Sense. Kemper say that most situations it should be set at 0 however, all of my guitars seem to sound way too loud on clean profiles so I usually run mine around -7db. The correct setting for one person won't be the correct one for someone else. In fact the correct setting may vary from guitar to guitar. You can set it once and lock it or set a different value for each rig/performance if you change guitars a lot.
Distortion sense is a global adjustment for distrotion. It doesn't affect level but compensates the gain within a profile for guitars with unsually loud or quiet pickups. This is usually set to 0 but can be adjusted to taste if required. It is intended as a means of matching a guitar to the profiler so is really a global setting not a something you would adjust on a rig by rig basis (unless you are changing guitars and they have wildly different output pickups).
I really is a suck it and see menu that is best set with your ears rather than logic or preconcieved "correct" V "wrong".
Great explanation, thanks a lot! ??
Hello!
Any rigs free available for Eric Johnson sounds? Thanks
What are you trying to get "correct"? Level, noise gate, distortion v clean balance etc?
I would like an explanation for all this.
Clean is good and I'm happy with it, but I think distortion should sound a lot better.
that depends on your definition of “correct” ?
if it sounds good it is good. Fortunately the KPA input is very forgiving.
Haha, Which is good under normal circumstances. ???♂️
How do you set INPUT correct???
Yes, I understand. Thanks for the explanation, there is certainly no perfect solution like you said. Although
I hope that an active version will be available soon...
There are quite a few threads discussing this at the moment and I don't think there is a definitive answer as to which is best. I really don't think there is a perfect solution yet as every power amp (pedal, rack, internal) seems to have its drawbacks. Whether its not enough solid state wattage, mismatched impedance, incorrect voltage, too much coloration, noisy unit, overpriced, etc. none are perfect as none are designed specifically for this application. I think that hopefully in the next few months there will be new options being offered that are designed for the Kemper/Kone and available in different configurations designed more to individual needs/preferences. Just a matter of time. In the meantime I am using Fryette Power Station, which is perfect for my needs and preferences and I was lucky enough to already have one so there was no need to purchase anything. I am looking fora solid state backup though... the EXH 44 Magnum I have just isn't cutting it, but I think I'll wait for the perfect solution rather than settling for something 'less'.
Any SS amp is fine. Generally one with good headroom and transparent sound.
Many people like the Matrix amps but they can be expensive.
Someone else can comment on the Seymour power stage as I have no experience although it looks relatively low power for an SS amp...the amp in Kempers are 600 watt ( as a comparison).
Ok, many thanks.
Do you know when an powered version will be available?
What model of Profiler are you using?
Profiler stage.
Hi!
Which is the best poweramp for kemper kabinet? Seymour duncan power stage 170 or something else?
Thanks
Hello there!
I have profile stage and electro voice zlx 12.
However, I can't get good sound. I tried different profiles: Michael Britt, Tone junkie, Reamp zones but not satisfied. Can anyone help if he had a similar problem?
Many thanks.
I just want to say the ckemper is awesome replying to all of our questions!
Also...
POWERED KEMPER KAB IS COMING #hype
We know it's coming, but when???
Why? Buy a Seymour Duncan PS 170 and you’re done.
There has been zero mention beyond "We'll have one in the future....."
Unpowered are en route to what CK said were their logisitics locations. End of Q1.
Now a better choice to take an active monitor?
Hello!
Do you have any information when it will appear powered cabinet???
For those of us with a Kemper Stage, will there be a powered Kemper Kabinet available in the future? Or should we just go Stage -> external power amp -> Kemper Kab?
Edit: OR do you recommend getting the Kemper Kone and replacing the existing speaker in, say, my Tech21 Power Engine Deuce Deluxe?
Thanks! Looking forward to hearing good reviews!
Passive for now, powered in the future...
So, they have not yet presented an active cabinet?
Can't make a single-speaker cab stereo. You'd just run two speaker cables like most any PA.
Yes that is correct.
How can I order one ?
At what Price ?
No details are known yet. Some of the larger companies are expected to be able to order ( Thomann, Andertons...)
