Back to the topic at hand, the noise gate seems to be the only thing that really brings the noise down but I have to really crank it. The next time I play out with it, I'll try setting it pretty high to see if it's taking too much of the initial attack with it.

Definition on the amp didn't do much and pick attack did nothing. Interestingly, definition in the Kemper Drive did a lot as did bringing down the tone, but that just made the overall sound too muddy.

I'll also look into that fast fret stuff.

Fast Fret works best (IMHO) when it is applied after playing (and basic string cleaning), so there will still be a little left when you pick up the guitar next time.
Been using it since the 90s mostly because I have way more guitars than I can play and strings on those need to last!

I've never used it. Should I put something under the strings to protect the wood?

Thanks for the responses all. Great info. I'll look into the settings adjustments and Fast Fret first.

Ok so I know my playing technique isn't the greatest but wow, I'm hearing a lot of the 'fingers on the strings' noise when I move around the fretboard. Especially when I use the Kemper Drive.

Tried eq'ing it out but couldn't find the frequency.

Anyone have any luck dialing that out, or at least reducing it? Thanks.

So if I want to take a non liquid profile and burn in the eq settings that were used to create the profile, do I have to do that in browser mode so that profile stays that way forever? Or can I do that in an indivual performance in performance mode, so the settings are only burned in in that particular rig in that particular performance?

I have a number of Tone Junkies profiles I've purchased over the past few years that I'd like to make into liquid profiles but I don't know the eq settings used on the amps to make the profiles. Any way to find that info somewhere from Tone Junkies?

Thanks!

Looking for a really good liquid profile of the 59 Bassman. Clean and edge of breakup. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

Hi all, there are times when I wish I could get just a bit more chime from my profiles (tonejunkie, mbritte). They sound great, but there's a certain high end chime that just isn't quite there. Any suggestions? Simple as turning up the presence? Are there any controls in the cabinet block I should try? Thanks!

Any suggestions for a profile to get that Bon Jovi Slippery When Wet marshall sound? Prefer mbritte or tonejunkies since I'm pretty familiar with theirs. Playing a strat with a duncan alnico2 bucker in the bridge. Thanks!

Saw a few on their site that looked interesting, but I wanted to get others' input first before putting down money on them.

Thanks!

Quick question: if i download a liquid profile, there's nothing I have to do other than play it, correct? It'll already have the tone stack selected so i just adjust the settings to taste and start playing?

On Kemper Stage, is it possible to have one delay in a rig have an exact delay time entered but then use tap tempo for every other rig? How do I do that? Thanks!

Thanks! I never even noticed that option was there.

Quick question. In the dual delay effect, only one of the delays has the feedback control available. Feedback 2 is greyed out. Any idea how to make both available? Thanks!

Hi all, quick question. I really love the ambient spacey sounds I can get with the reverb presets in Kemper. But it can get pretty muddy at times in the auditorium of the church I regularly play in. Any suggestions on how to reduce the lows in the reverb itself without impacting the actual amp sound? This particular preset has settings for high damp, bandwidth and mid frequency. Would one of those do the trick? Thanks!

I don't find that the definition control affects the highs as much as many make it out to. I mean it does, but it seems to affect the feel too. The cab controls, EQ or LPF would be my go to. I'll use the global LPF. That way I can shift the top end on everything, save it as an output preset then go back to "normal" with a less bright EQ'd P.A. And it's a quick fix.

What if I don't want to impact everything with a global low pass filter? If I have several profiles that are perfect and one that's a bit bright, and I want to switch between profiles in a set, what would you recommend?

What's your go-to control to cut highs in the Kemper if you're going through a PA and your profile sounds a little bright? In the PA I typically play through the soundguy has my channel really optimized for the profile I typically use. I'm trying out a new profile and it's a bit bright, and I don't want to have to ask him to readjust my channel in the PA because I'll be switching back and forth between these profiles. So I need a tool to cut the highs in the new profile without taking up an additional effect block (I hope!) and without impacting the highs in the other profile I use. Thoughts? Should I just use the treble knob in the amp block? Is there anything in the cab block that might be more effective without really compromising the sound of the profile?

Thanks!

Just curious to see if anyone's trying this. I heard of one person who has done this by putting a Kingsley pedal (don't know which one) into the Kemper and he said he really liked it. He said it really gave him more of a tube amp vibe. Anyone else having similar results? Thanks!

Hi all, I have a vox profile from ToneJunkies I truly love that I'm using in our church's worship team. I think it's called Stu's favorite, or something like that. Sounds great clean and overdriven. I have three different rigs in one performance loaded with it. One with just a tad of the Kemper pure boost, a second with a bit more pure boost and a third with a lot more. It produces a very natural sounding overdrive which I like, and I love how switching between presets just sounds like a very smooth transition. The transitions aren't jarring at all, because it's the same amp profile just with different amounts of boost. I don't have to worry about amp profiles with different eq voicings, and different sounding mics, and different sounding mic placement, and differences in phasing, etc etc. My quandary is I really need one setting of just flat out rock power chord distortion sound, but it needs to be something that won't sound so radically different than the vox that the transition sounds odd. How have you guys handled this kind of thing? Just pick a marshall profile for that fourth rig and live with the slightly jarring transition? Find a distortion preset you can live with and just add that on? Use an outboard 'marshall in a box' type of distortion pedal? Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks!
