Wish: setting for "sticky" effects in performance mode

Hi everyone

I’m brand new in the Kemperverse, and liking the ease of use and quality of sound

However I already have a wish for a function that I believe would make the Kemper even better in a band setting.

I wish there was a setting that when in performance mode made effect changes «sticky» until you changed performance.

Scenario: you have a kitchen sink performance that you use for multiple songs. (I’m a simple guy, and could probably make do with a single performance the whole set). One slot for clean, one for rythm, lead etc. For a particular song you turn on the chorus in your clean tone, after a while you go into a lead part. When you switch back to clean I’d like the slot to «remember» I turned the chorus on. Thus only having to make the change once during the song.

This would reduce the need for creating several almost identical performances, or even one per song.

As I guess some still would prefer the current way the performance mode works, there should probably be a global setting for ‘sticky mode’ on/off.

...am a bit confused. My Stage does it already: 'till you don't change Performance, the slots stays on the last status, not in the saved one..

My head-version doesn’t do this unless it’s hooked up to rig manager on the PC/Mac

My stage does not do this, and actually prefer it that way. But it would be good to know how to do if I change my mind. Is there a setting for that?

Kellerblues do you perhaps have rig manager connected with usb or wifi while playing? That would make sense based on how the head-version behaves.

Yes, have iOS RM running on Wlan from the Ipad

This is how it's supposed to work, check page 285 of the manual.

Would be cool indeed if you could decide per rig / slot / performance if the settings should go back to the "predictable" state or if they should be stored when switching to another slot, so +1!

If it was me, and I had to have this as a workaround, I'd probably copy the kitchen sink to another performance but with the chorus on and use it for songs that required that. Or do the two tap.
