Deleting Rigs in RM - Plug Back in and Re-SYNC (SOLVED..sort of)

Quote from LiamThompson

Yes had this happen more than a few times. Rig manager doesn't always delete the rig from the Kemper that is the issue, so when you re-connect via USB, Rig Manager sees the rigs you think you deleted and inserts them back in your local folder, sometimes the name of the rig is visible in the profiler still, but the rig produces the same sound as the previous rig you had selected.

The solution is to boot up the Kemper, by holding down (and keep it held down) the RIG Soft Button followed by turning the chicken knob to BROWSE. After say 15 seconds or so it should say something along the lines of Initialising Rigs or Checking Rigs and will go through every effect and Rig removing any "deleted" or corrupt entries. You can release the Rig button now. The process takes a couple of minutes to complete.

Once it's finished it should have loaded a default rig called "CRUNCH" which is a very tweakable and nice rig in itself, you may want to save this as a preset whilst you have the chance. If you now re-connect to rig manager the issue should be gone.

Don't worry about it saying initialising rigs or something similar, the Kemper is not deleting any performances, effects or rigs that you haven't told it to previously, its just cleaning everything up for you.

However.....there are a couple of settings off the top of my head which will need resetting such as Clean/Dist Sense. Whilst I'm not 100% certain of any others that may be reset it would pay to check the following settings after and switch them back to how you like:

Pure Cab
Output Settings
Display Colour
Rig loading preference in Performance mode, i.e. keep slot
Space

Haven't had this issue so far with Rig Manager 1.6 but had it with all previous versions.

Hi there. You could try out Liam's suggestion - worked for me! Good luck

How are you closing Rig Manager? The database is updated when you exit the program using the program menu.
