I keep getting an error external amp not connected or volume too low. please check and restart. I have everything hooked up correctly guitar front of kemper, direct out to fortin grind to peavey input, sm 57 on cab going to return input on back of amp. my return level is set at -12 db. same setting i used with my Mesa triple rec and it worked great. I posted this on the kemper fb page and was told the amp has an internal gate and thats its hard to profile

That may very well be true, I have a similar problem with my Marshall JCM800 Kerry King head, beast channel. The amp has an internal gate which is adjustable but even on its most minimal setting,I get similar messages from my Kemper.

i must of tried everything, changing speaker, changing mic cable adjust input return gain. volume and channels on amp same thing every time

Yeah, it's mentioned somewhat, but it's not super common knowledge, the KPA has serious issues profiling some very high-gain amps. I don't know if it's just those with a built-in gate or what. There are not a lot of XXX profiles out there, for this reason I guess. There are only about 10-15 on Rig Exchange as I remember.

From my understanding, yes it is! My YJM100 was the same!

well, i got it figured out. had to crank the amp to 3/4 volume to do it. but i got ts9, fortin grind and savage drive profiles for ch 2 and 3. just gotta go back and make sure they came out good. i may post them. im doing the triple rectifier right now

It’s well documented that the KPA can’t profile with a noise gate in the chain. There have been a few threads through the years specifically about the Peavey XXX and how it’s noise gate is never truly bypassed. Sinmix (bless his soul) actually had his modded to remove the noise gate in order to be able to profile it.

here is one of them i got, ultra channel with a fortin grind. wouldnt mind some feedback
