  • PySwitch - An alternative, customizable firmware for PaintAudio MIDI Captain Controllers

    Quote from tunetown

    mmazur716 do you know of any MIDI commands for this? It is not documented by Kemper, i dont think this is possible directly.

    However you can use the "Other" Action for toggling the parameter states directly. The system page (0x7f) does provide access to the ouput parameters via MIDI, so if you know which parameters are differing you could just directly set those....i can add the missing mappings if you tell me which ones you need exactly:

    Cool, I am not sure of the parameters maybe they do not exist. But if I manually adjust each of the settings that could work. I'll give me a try.


    Is there a way to display on the screen a name for when I step on the other option for each state. PRS and Tele?


    Thanks!

  • PySwitch - An alternative, customizable firmware for PaintAudio MIDI Captain Controllers

    Feature Request,

    Is it possible to show the output preset name on the screen and also the ability to change the output preset by a footswitch stomp. such as if I hold down an assigned stomp it will cycle or better yet select the assigned output preset to that stomp and then display on the screen?


    Reason being I have 4 different output presets

    1- Guitar1 No Cab

    2- Guitar1 With Cab

    3- Guitar2 No Cab

    4- Guitar2 With Cab


    I do this as opposed to managing 2 banks for each guitar with essentially the same rigs just changes in some basic output eq. Ideally I can change the output preset live on the MC instead of RigManager.

    You can use the RIG_AND_BANK_SELECT_AND_MORPH_STATE action ;)

    Code
    KemperActionDefinitions.RIG_AND_BANK_SELECT_AND_MORPH_STATE(
    rig = 4,
    bank = 2,
    display = DISPLAY_FOOTER_2,
    morph_only_when_enabled = True  # Only show morph state when the target bank/rig is selected
),

    I gave that a shot and I get all sorts of errors when it boots.

    Here is the code I used in switches.py

    # Switch 1
    {
    "assignment": Hardware.PA_MIDICAPTAIN_MINI_SWITCH_1,
    "actions": [
    KemperActionDefinitions.RIG_AND_BANK_SELECT_AND_MORPH_STATE(
    rig = 1,
    bank = 7,
    display = DISPLAY_FOOTER_2,
    morph_only_when_enabled = True
    )
    ]
    },


    Thoughts? I'd like the Rig name to still be in the center so I tried also adding:

    display_mode = RIG_SELECT_DISPLAY_TARGET_RIG


    But that threw up an error that display_mode was unknown.

    EDIT: Looking though kemper file I found the RIG_AND_BANK_SELECT. after messing with that It looks like I have it working....


    tunetown This must be a simple config but I do not see how to define - a specific bank & rig to a switch.

    My current midi captain 10 I have configured with switches 1-5 top row are bank 1 (rig 1-5) and switches 6-10 bottom row are bank 2 (rigs 1-5).

    I use the 3 buttons on the KPP for my FX' toggles.

    Is it possible to call out a specific bank&rig in the switches.py?


    Thanks.

    Hi, love the idea!

    Any way you cold make a version for the 10 button version?

    I've been trying myself but i couldn't make it work properly, right now i'm using a modified version of the kpp firmware, buttons 1 to 4 toggle effects on and off, A to D change between slots 1 to 4 (i don't need a 5th one, so i'm fine like this) and up and down change the bank.

    Would love to have the same but with that layout of yours :D

    Thanks in advance!

    I'd be interested in if this would work for 10 button MidiCaptain as well. -- I use it today modified to launch 10 rigs with custom color scheme and an expression pedal out of the MC for Vol/Wah. I'd love to try using the MC using your bi-directional and visual as 5 top buttons for stomps with synced state and the lower 5 for rig selection on current bank. -- Can your configurations work if I simply add the addtional Switch number 5, 6, 7 etc.... Or is that needed to be incorporated into the build? THANKS!


    EDIT: Looks like from doing some additional reading I just need to find out the GP# for buttons 3,4,5 & C,D,E. (5&E are up down marked on the pedal but assumption is consecutive).


    If they follow order I'd expect button 4 = GP23, button 5= GP22. & button D = GP12, button E = GP13

    I will test this theory and report back. If this has already been confirmed or someone is in the process please let me know so I do not duplicate efforts.

  • Public Beta - Midi controller no longer working

    Code
    IMPORTANT NOTE: If MIDI Global Channel was not set to OMNI (default), it needs to be reentered after update from OS versions before 11!

    Not sure if you saw this in the installation notes, but if not, it is likely your problem?

    My MIDI settings were never changed from OMNI so must have been something else. I restored it back to factory settings for now until this is better tested. I won't be updating to Level2/3 anytime soon but wanted to see the improvement on the amp settings and test using double foot switch options.

    Ill also say that the response turning FX on and off was super delayed.

  • Question for Headrush FRFR users

    I have been using this configuration for the last few practices and it works well. Not only that… My other guitarist also has a kemper and I run both our setups into the PA for FOH then back into both of our headrush monitors with a little of each of our guitars on opposite sides so I can hear his guitar better and viseversa.

    It’s a very capable solution. As others have mentioned I did notice some stronger vocal bass frequencies but its correctable on my UI 24r mixer. Hope that helps.

  • I don’t get how to connect rig manager to profiler power head on ipad

    If you do not have a stage then you need to add wifi which is not inherantly a part of the rack/toaster.


    In short you need to add a wireless AP, a POE switch and cables... watch this video. it should help.

  • Profiler Player disappointment

    I hate to be “That guy” but obviously you did zero research on what the kemper player is.

    Short breakdown because why not. The player is a complement to a pedal board that can utilize all the amazing profiles that it’s big brother does while sitting comfortably on your pedal board along side your favorite stomps.

    Not sure what you mean by cannot swap cabs and amps you have 5 slots per bank and can interchange any cab/amp combo you wish. 2 fx in front and 2 post — most users will add their own pedals in front and post then sprinkle in the built in fx’s as needed.

    As with the OG kemper updates will come and this already useful tool will get better than an already fantastic device.

    I moved my rack into the studio and the player is sitting comfortably on my board and is well deserved.

    Honestly give it a chance or don’t there are many out there wanting one with little stock available — I find myself enjoying just playing more than tinkering on the rack; it became (to me) feature overload.

  • Completed Player pedalboards

    It's gone through a few iterations but I think I'm close if not at the point now where everything is doing what I want and I can now just play guitar.

    The MXR compressor I've used for playing bass actually works great for guitar.

    MIDI Captain with latest Kemper Player updates lets me put the 5 slots with varying amps and configurations +tap then I use the 3 on board player pedals for different stomps on/off.
