OK, so, there are SO many things that go into sound, its unreal.... I love my kemper, but I always want to see how other people are using it... AND how their whole thing is set up... So.... please tell me! Lets hear from the most awesome setup to the most ghetto... Here's mine.... BTW, this is all pretty much going on simultaneously, no wires to move...
Description of setup
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
My setup attempts to be simple. I have my kemper going to my cheap m-audio fast track (SPDIF) so the signal chain is all digital all the way to my DAW (logic) via USB. At the same time, my laptop (MAC) feeds out to my interface (fast track) via USB and this all gets output to the PA. I use the direct outs of the kemper to another port on my PA for monitoring the kemper against pre-recorded tracks. The recorded sound, precicely matches the monitored sound, so i'm good to go there... My cheap PA is central to my system.. I also have an electronic drum kit & microphone hooked up to it. I'm wondering if a mixing board and better studio monitors would improve my setup. All and all, i'm fairly happy but looking for other options, cant wait to see responses.
