I have the Matrix FR12p and it is absolutely excellent.

Thanks for your reply Kempermaniac.

The only change I have made from factory setting is that I have unlinked the master from the main outs.

Does that sound like what you have described?

I recently picked up the Matrix FR12p and it is nothing short of amazing in my opinion. £450 and weighs about 12kg.

Hi all!

I have encountered a slight issue a couple of times and wondered if i was doing something wrong or if anyone has experienced the same.

Sometimes, when I have turned my master down to zero, i have been unable to bring it back up. The knob turns but it doesn't register, is what I am trying to describe.

Then again, I may have overlooked something that is glaringly obvious.

Cheers all!

Thank you, Paul.

So, with the main output unlinked, the profiler will send a constant -13db signal to FOH? That's a great bit of engineering.

Hi all,

As of yesterday, I am the proud owner of a Kemper Powerhead. Tomorrow I am trying out some cabs and the passive Matrix NL12 is looking tempting.

If I were to get it, would the live setup look like the following?:

Main outs connected to FOH
Speaker out to Matrix NL12, or does the Monitor our serve the same/better purpose in this case?

Also, I read somewhere that you could control your on stage volume independently to the signal feeding FOH. Can anyone shed some light on how to do this please?

Thanks

Welcome, Alex! I'm Suhr you'll be happy with your new beastie, mate.

Yes, @digbob is right. Probably best to create a folder called "Rigs" within the Shared folder, and place them in it, just for the sake of good housekeeping. If you keep a zipped copy of the stick's contents on your 'puter as a backup, you'll be able to add FX presets, cabs and whatnot in future, all with their own appropriately-named folders. This could come in handy if you ever need to wipe the unit clean for whatever reason, or accidentally delete cabs, presets or Rigs. The same thing can be accomplished via the Backup / Restore function too, which creates a single file that only the Kemper reads / writes.

The Kemper creates these folders I suggested you make for its own use when you do a manual backup from the unit ("Backup / Restore" function; the folders appear within the .kpabackup file, which Kemper would prefer you don't unpack), so IMHO it's best to reflect the same layout the Kemper uses, but in this case, where we've discussed - just within the Shared folder on the "main" part of the stick - not in the .kpabackup file (you'd have to decompress it and so on, and Kemper recommends we not touch those files anyway). In one way or another, it'll minimise confusion down the road should you start messing around with adding FX presets, cabs and so on.

Hope this helps, mate. If it's confusing to you, don't worry; that's normal IMHO. You could just stick(!) to Rigs for now. If you install Rig Manager, that might be the ticket if you'd prefer to avoid using a stick altogether, although you'll not be able to add cabs or FX presets (except for when they're contained within Rigs) without using one.

Thanks Monkey_Man! That's great additional info. Appreciate it buddy!

you have to put them unzipped in the shared folder of the stich not the root directory
then you can import them via the ext storage button

Thanks, I think that is where I went wrong! Will try tonight

Hey guys!

Day 1 with the Kemper and ... wow!

I am keen to get the M Britt profiles into my Kemper, but am a little unsure how. I was under the impression I could put it on a UBS and import them that way - my kemper comes up with a message saying something like 'not necessary at this time'.

If anyone could give me any pointers, I would be eternally grateful.

I have updated the OS, too.

Cheers!
