Hi Markyboy. Welcome to the forum!
-
Hey
Your "decency" is being appreciated alot!
Welcome to the machine.

Welcome to the club.

Thank you everyone, cool response like it!!
Now let the bombardment commence:
Just bought the Kemper rack version, god it's complicated, I thought the TC G system was difficult! I'm trying to set up the Kemper through my mesa boogie express and 2x1x12s
I understand that you connect from the Kemper's monitor out to the mesa send and then disable the cabinet on the Kemper to stop any double fazing Yeah?
Ok what I don't get is all the choices in the output menu, i.e. main outs master outs, git outs, mono gits etc etc. Can anyone just explain to me what settings I need to set it to,
to achieve the following: Kemper to mesa boogie express to 2x1x12s no front of house system, just straight through my mesa to achieve the best on stage sound.
Thanks in advance.
Mark

Hey Markyboy, Bombs away!

Welcome! Don't worry they won't bite ... Hard. Everyone is really helpful on this site. But since my toaster hasn't shown up yet, I'm not the right guy to give set up advice yet. But when it shows up I'll be all over it like hair to a gorilla.

I no this is late but welcome

Never too late, Raoul.
Welcome to the jungle that is our Home of Tone, markyboy!
The output menu has confused the Hell out of me too, mate. Apparently all we need to do is check out the manual for a full explanation. Who'd have thunk it? I mean, what will they think of next? This product really is truly innovative in every conceivable way.
This is funny: I've not yet figured out how to send the DI signal to my desk whilst the affected signal (main outs with amp / tone / cab modules active) is sent out of the XLR and 1/4" outs. I need both sets of main outs so I can send one into the 'puter for recording and the other to the desk for monitoring. The DI out, of course, will also go to the 'puter for re-amping purposes. That is, if I ever figure out why I get no signal from all the outs I've tried that seem logical for the DI signal...
Might have to break out that manual after all. I was going to start a noob thread on it but it seemed too pathetic a question for an audio engineer to ask!
I guess what I'm saying is that the unit is deep if you need it to be, but it's very simple to use nevertheless. The only reason there are so many I/O options is that the designer/s were forward-thinking, something we can and should all be grateful for, IMHO.
Enjoy!

Monkey man, you say you are sending the Direct signal to the computer? I assume through an audio interface of some sort? Why not send it to the mixing console then out the consoles many options there for routing to the audio/digital interface to computer? Or is it that you are not getting a signal from the Kemper?
-
I guess the question I'm trying to ask is why you are you sending two signals? When you only need to send to the console? Most Consoles have the capability to re route audio signals to other devices via line out, rca out, phono out, effect sends and returns etc etc. or are you connecting SPDIF from Kemper to computer and audio to console? And not getting SPDIF to the computer or no signal to the console?
if you are having an issue with signal to the console, I recall reading that there is a menu to select the output level for the mains out, if it is set too low you will need to raise it for the strip input level to see it, if on the other hand, it's too high you will obviously clip the strip input. Also it was mentioned you will want to separate the volume control and fix the output level for the mains out.
sorry for the off topic stuff... Just trying to be helpful. -
