Practicing with backing track

richh · July 16, 2015 at 10:06 AM

Hello,

I'm playing my KPA through headphones, and playing along with a backing track. It is working but just on one side of the headphones. I don't think the KPA can take a stereo line in signal, but is it possible to get balanced mono, so it spread through both headphone channels?

I'm connecting in the 'Return' input, quarter inch jack on a stereo jack plug. Is this the way to connect, or is there a better way or other type of cable to use?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Use return and alternative input (each with a mono plug) and you'll get stereo.

Great, thanks for that! To adjust headphone volume then is page 5 of the output screen?

I think so (not in front of my KPA atm). Somewhere in the output menu there must be a volume control "Aux --> Headphone" or similar.

Thanks again, loving the KPA and it gets better & better the more I learn about it!

I stopped using the Kemper's Aux it was just too noisy. I use the head phone output, convert it to a 1/8" and plug it into a Y cable, the computer out goes into the other side, to my headphones from there. The noise was driving me nuts.

Thanks for the previous post, i've started to use: "1Jack=2 mini jack" splitter connect it into headphone output socket, and connect headphones and mp3 player for a guitar practice.
