Can HX one work in 4 cable method with a Kemper Player despite the player not having an FX loop?

  • Hey all!

    I recently got a HX one and also just ordered a new Kemper Player. The HX one can be both in front of an amplifier and in it's effects loop by using the 4 cable method.

    The Kemper Player has no effects loop, but is it still possible to use the HX one in 4 cable method in order to place effects behind the amp (and in this cab) and if so, is the way below the correct way to do it?

    Guitar connected to the HX One in - L/mono => HX one Out - Right (send) to Kemper Player guitar input => Kemper Player L output to HX One Right (return) Input => HX One L (mono) Output to a DI box / cabinet / Audio interface, ...

    Added is a screenshot of the HX one manual concerning 4 cable method.

  • Like you've said, the Kemper Player has no FX Loop. So you can't connect the HX with 4 cable method.

    If you want to use FX's from the HX after the Kemper, then you should connect the Output from the Kemper with the Input from the HX and from there to a DI Box or Interface.
