Absolutely a Gibson fan and that one is extremely nice :).

Ouch that sucks. Do you have a backup solution that can tie you over for a period? I use a Tonex One. It's cheap, sounds great and I can get most gigs done with 3 sounds if I have to.
If you don't have a backup solution (however simple) now is a good time to get one.

I suspect OP means when using Kemper as the interface?
-
Nice name :). Reminds of the El Juan limiter
-
In general no. Just make sure you are juuuuust below top of zone 2 so bends and vibratos are as natural as they can be.
I do find that the sustain suffers just a tad. That's a compromise I'm willing to make.

Found the problem pull plug out a little ways and now I have both channels working. Thanks for the tip. Consider problem fix
Great that you figured it out. It's strange that the Stage socket seem to have this problem. This is probably the 3rd or 4th time we've heard about it on the forum. I myself experienced it when I first bought my unit too.
-
Try pulling the plug out ever so slightly?
-
Could be a calibration issue. Plugging in the cables while the unit is on is usually not a good idea, but in your situation it seems to help. So try calibrating again.

Depends on the venue size I would say.

When I use inears at rehearsal I have a - 4.5db highshelf at 4.5 khz. That solves the problem for me. Have the same in the tech rider for the FOH guy (for my inears).

True. But there are buttons on the console to skip pages too. It becomes very intuitive. Great if the favorites feature work for you!
-
I have Console one and it can't do exactly what you describe. But you can very quickly with one click of one of the console one channel buttons select the channel you want, and then adjust it. No mouse involved. It also works with the UAD console mixer which is fantastic to quickly change the direct monitoring level of my Kemper. Use it ALL the time.

Yea man ive posted here a few times but usually get bashed. Valves are no good bla bla. I got a comparison vid of a matchless and my kemp and its almost same. My phone wont let me post it i try on my desktop later. Had a guy make it up for me. Cost more than my kemper but i had to do it. I have a spare faceplate so if the mark 2 profiling is a step up, esp the di profiling like they said i will be sticking it in a mark 2.
Amazing work. Which amp did you use again?
-
Yep thats frank. Just enuf room for a small linear tube amp. 25 watts.
Is that image for real? :). What tube amp are you using?
-
I don't know why Anybody would want a tube based option. Any coloration to the Kemper output is generally detrimental to the accuracy of the profile. A profile done correctly will already have the tube coloration "built in" And from my personal experience any tube distortion added changes things and not for the better. Not only that but you're dealing with the fragility of tubes, heat, weight etc. People have it in their mind that the tube sound will somehow make it warmer or more magic but all it really does is make things more distorted and fuzzier, So some hear that as "warmer".
Solid state amps are generally more reliable and with nothing to gain by having a tube option I can't see why tubes should be considered.
Thanks. I wasn't asking for reasons to not use a tube amp (for the second time :)). Was asking if someone knew of a tube amp that could be small and handy like the solid state alternatives.
-
tube power amps are not recommended, since the power amp signature is already part of a PROFILE (unless you use a preamp only PROFILE from a FX send for example) - so for the large majority of PROFILEs out there you would 'double' the power amp signature.
Absolutely. But does some exist for the curious?
-
I wonder if a comparable tube based option exists? Small and Practical.

You can get a silver sky for 600usd?

One performance for rhythm sounds, one for lead sounds.
I control the kpa with a roland fc200 midicontroller, which has 10 program change buttons. So every rig i use has direct access without bank changes.
I do have a lot of expression pedals attached for efx on/off-morph and global delay on/off.Interesting. Doesn't switching performances introduce an additional gap?
