Hey there everyone.
I have owned a "toaster" Kemper profiler for a while, profiled my 6505+ with it and got some amazing profiles. I have since sold that Kemper and purchased a Kemper Stage. I tried to profile my Engl Fireball the other day and the result sounded absolutely hideous. Trying to retrace my steps as I did the same thing to profile with the stage as I did with the toaster.
Guitar into Kemper Stage input
Kemper send 1 into front input of Engl Fireball
SM 57 into return 1 of Kemper Stage and placed directly in center cone of Mesa 2-12 speaker
Set the stage into Profile mode
Profile set to distortion
Play through the Engl to get input volume set
Hit profile.......All the weird noises take place.
***On two occasions, there was an error. I raised the volume of the amp slightly and then it corrected the error.
I have now had a profile that just sounded completely like flub and another profile that sounded like my amp was set on the clean channel.
Is profiling different or are there steps that I may be missing with the stage? I would really like to profile my Engl, but I am obviously doing something wrong here. Any help would be appreciated.
