Hello! I’m new here and new to Kemper! So I’m sorry if this scenario has already been described. But can someone tell me if this will work the way I think it will:
GOAL:
Only have the Kemper Remote w/ expression pedal in front of me during gigs but have access to analog overdrives and use my BigSky for verbs.
POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
1) Put analog overdrive pedals on a rack drawer.
2) Use something like the Voodoo Lab HEX to hook up to my 4-6 overdrives
3) Run overdrives (HEX output) into the main input of the Kemper
4) Use the Remote to send PC messages on channel 1 to the HEX during performances to toggle overdrives on/off in different combinations. (I’d set up the HEX with a whole bunch of different overdrive stacking combinations triggered by different PCs)
5) Put the BigSky in the Stereo FX loop and assign it to slot X when desired.
6) Use the MIDI out on the Hex to send to my BigSky on channel 2.
7) Use the Remote to also send PC messages on channel 2 to the BigSky for different patches.
Am I missing anything? Would I have to connect the BigSky to the MIDI Thru on the Kemper or is it fine to simply daisy chain it with the HEX from the MIDI Out on the Kemper? Any other simple MIDI switcher I can use for this or is the HEX the simplest and cheapest way to accomplish this?
Thanks for your help!
