The main outputs of the stage are quite hot for mic inputs on your PA if you’re using the XLR sockets on your main outs. I have the -12db box ticked and another -6db on the main outs level. We have an X32 and with a little adjustment on the desk this sounds fine. If these settings produce clipping on your desk take a little more off the main outs level on the stage.

Uooo Ohh ''Leaving On a Player'' (cit)


Well played 👏

If you want to change parameters in the same profile, morph is the man. No pun intended

This is a tune I came to know through Larry Carlton and I've listened to it many, many times. Due to the fact that your backing is so different than his makes you escape a comparison.
So just based on your track, that's a really cool version and that sound certainly fits and you make it and the tune justice.
Cheers,

Wow, high praise indeed. Thanks man.

Very nicely done Morph !
Thank you sir 🙏🏻

Excited to hear the fruits of your endeavours, and thanks man.

I had something like this but it was when I had the FX loop plugged in. Support advice was to init locals on the last page of the system menu. It sorted mine out and maybe worth a go.
-
I had a strange one where my Mk ii Stage kept freezing when I used FX loop 1 (send 1 and return one), I had to remove the cable to get it back. I contacted support and they advised init Globals on page one of the System menu. This worked and it all functions as normal now. It's a bit niche but just in case you run into it.

I’ve just come home from a gig using my new Kemper MK 2 Head, loaded with the “New Standard” MK 2 profiles…
It was horrible.
Most of the audience walked out, the sound engineer said he would never work with me again. My wife me made me sleep on the couch for a few days and the kids couldn’t look at me.
After much speculation, I was told:
"Dude, you avoided arguing with people on the forums, you denied null tests. You put your on stage performance, your interaction with band members, the enjoyment of the audience before the approval of anonymous internet practitioners and their frequency tests…"
YOUR SOUND WILL FOREVER SUCK
And then I woke up and realized that it was all a bad dream 😉
Well played 👏

I have tried Thomas Dill’s Fan Twin Surf, Fan S’champ Clean and Tone Junkie’s Purple plexi and they are all excellent, airy and very responsive, this is on a Mkll Stage. I have an Apollo Twin and a pair of Adam monitors. I’m intrigued by Null tests and comparison videos. Firstly, any valve amp recorded with the same settings and a minute gap between recording would fail a null test with itself and also because in many comparison videos I watch, the Kemper tone doesn’t match what I hear myself. One issue I had with the new OS is that my Stage didn’t shut down after it had been on for a while and I had to remove the cable.

I was really enjoying this Mk 2 Dill profile of a champ and used it to play over a backing track of Put It Where You Want It. The profile is airy, articulate and extremely responsive and it’s on the rig exchange The playing however is warts and all 😀

Hi guys,
There are new Profiling 2.0 rigs on Rig Exchange - some clean tones for the weekend with a 70s Silverface Twin Reverb. Prepared with some effects for different sounds & styles..
DR - Fan Twins Surf - 2.0 | DR - Fan Twins Soul - 2.0 | DR - Fan Twins 80s - 2.0
Have fun!
I am indeed having fun. A very happy surfy hour there. Very reactive and sensitive. Many thanks

I was a Boogie devotee but my new band was amp less on stage. I bought the rack first, that was stolen and replaced with a head and remote and now I have a stage. I got my first one in 2015 and have been the grateful recipient of all the new fx since then. I still use spdif into the computer but am on in ears in almost all gigs now. It’s a total GAS squasher.
-
I used to do it with Spdif only. Spdif out was git/master mono. Create two mono tracks in logic and mute the git input, this will record your dry guitar and you can monitor as usual on the other track. On playback, set the dry guitar output to the spdif output on your interface and set kempers input to spdif input reamp. You can now reset your KPA spdif output to master stereo and record the output on a new stereo track in Logic. It’s been a while but I think this should work. Also remember to change the KPA input back to front when you’re done.

Mine sounds great through anything but my wee Adam monitors are spectacular. That cab looks pretty handy by the way

We are iced in in TN and I've been playing with my player this morning. Monitoring in different ways, studio monitors, FR cabs, power amp and cabs. Its just so alive and satisfying. I can't even imagine what it will be like playing with 2.0. From the videos I have seen highlighting the responsiveness, I think its on track to be the best there is.
Hard to imagine much better.
My favorite way to hear it is though a custom FR system I built using 2-12 cab with celestions. a par of tweeters and a Class-D stereo power module. Just awesome. What do you use?
-
and while we're at it:
set the metronome to half of the desired tempo and use it as a 'snare' - on 2 and 4
And make it swing. There’s an old YouTube video of Metheny doing that somewhere, It’s a good workout
-
I use the neck pickup and pick the string over the twelfth fret while tuning. It’s a bit finnickety but it helps to stabilise the tuner.
-
There is one in the artist rigs in rig manager. I tend to have a really clean amp with plenty of delay and reverb and a neck humbucker with the tone rolled off quite a bit. The synth sound you can get with a boss SY pedal in the loop. I use an SY1. Hope this helps
