Direct out experiment running External Tube head

  • After talking with Kemper staff a while back about the Direct Output, I finally tried to run my ENGL Powerball 2 head via the direct output of the Kemper. I set the Direct Out to Git/Analog and then ran that to the front end of the ENGL. My Kemper was hooked to two JBL 8 inch studio monitors and the ENGL to 2 Randall cabs. It sounded pretty killer in the room! Kind of awesome that we have so many routing capabilities with the almighty Kemper. Love this thing! \m/ Just thought I would share.

  • I'm guessing by line out you mean the di output? Putting a volume pedal before the input of the 2nd amp would just affect the gain no? Wouldn't it best to put it in the fx loop of the 2nd amp?

    Either way, it wouldn't be a blend in the truest sense, as when you bring in the second amp things would get a whole lot louder hehe. You'd need to be able to mix the two signals with overall volume being the same....
