Hi Markus,
ja, wir fahren auch durch Rheinland, Eifel und Westerwald. Eher Kölner Süden… In Düsseldorf selber spielen wir eher selten. Eigentlich fast nur auf der Brauhaussitzung im Schumacher. Aber klar, Alt-Schuss sagt mir was. Wir sind nur ne kleine Cover Truppe (50-60 Gigs in der Session).
Gruß,
Andreas
Jo, siehst du ja quasi überall. Einzige Ausnahme, die mir gerade einfällt, ist Flo Peil von Kasalla. Bisher hatte ich gar keine Probleme. Hatte vorher ein pod500 (ich weiß, andere Liga), bei dem mir regelmäßig die Fußschalter verreckt. Mit dem Kemper bisher alles ok, in mittlerweile sechs Jahren (ok, mit kleiner Corona Pause ). Wo spielst du denn, wenn man fragen darf?
Hi Markus,
nein, musst du nicht. Ich bin auch im Fastelovend unterwegs und mache das regelmäßig mit meinem Toaster. Hab ne usv dran, damit er beim rein fahren schon mal booten kann. Da es beim Toaster kein Problem ist, schätze ich dass der Stage dir das auch verzeiht.
Gruß,
Andreas
Green is my favourite colour. I love it even more than blue and yellow combined."
Love it! 😁😁
It does need some horse power, yes. But you wouldn't do the calculations on the stage. The same way you wouldn't make a profile on stage.
I looked a bit at it, and it does seem very interesting. No desire to switch out my kemper (which is collecting dust for no fault of its own), but I find this impressive. Even moreso as it is not a company making this (an open source, no less).
I haven‘t yet, time is a bit limited right now. But of course it is impressive to develop sth like this on an open source base.
Nervertheless, also applying neural nets requires quite a bit of power, not just the training. On the other side, it is remarkable how good the kpa sounds with its limited capabilities (compared to e.g. a GPU).
Long time lads:) Have you checked free alternative to ToneX ?

It has now IR loader and EQ build in.
Soundwise - better quality then QUAD and Tonex.
Have Fun!!!
PS. Did i said the future of profile AMPS is AI some long time ago?

well, that depends. AI does need a lot of horse power for the calculations. In a Studio, this is not an issue. Live it is. And for live, all top modelers (including the kpa) sound by far good enough. So, I do not see the need for a new shiny AI-powered unit. My kpa sounds good, at least to me.

Well,
I do use the acoustic sim for live. Works pretty well with the neck pickup of my strat.
Hi,
maybe they are just busy keeping the Hardware alive and making adjustments on it to work around IC, Processors etc.. which are diffucult to obtain, right now. At least in our company supply chain issues are a problem.

Interesting products. Do they allow for stereo IEM?
Stereo only as an unsymmetric signal. But I use it in mono.
hi,
i play wired all the time. Just taped a guitar and a microphone cable together, the latter for the monitor signal.
I use this one, works very well:

oder halt ein Poe Adapter. Hab schon einen hier liegen, hab ihn aber noch nicht verbaut.
yeah, I guess it comes down to the level you are playin on. I am not a professional player, playin in two cover bands. But for those 20 gigs per year it is pretty much effort to keep a sub up to date for the whole set. A sub for drums or base is OK, but guitar and keys is a lot oft work.
Never had to cancel a gig in 20 years, till Corona showed up. Had positive tests last autumn and was und er quarantine. Was wrong positive, it turned out.
Right now, i am truely positive (all well, i'm doin fine), and should be on stage for 2 h already...
Apart from that, I played with a brocken foot, sitting on a flight case and stuff like that...
Having a sub for every band member is not really feasible, I think.
I also use theShure 215SE model. My lead singer is an audiologist and made me custom molds. Not happy with the harshness. During rehearsal I use a set of over the ear Sony MDR 75 and I really like its sound as it’s a fairly flat sound. Many studio engineers use them for their so-called neutrality. Could anybody recommend a set of higher End IEMs that sounds a lot like the Sony MDR75s?
your Nick suggests that you are from the netherlands - if this is the case, you could talk to vision ears in cologne/germany. They sent a few universal test buds to me and me and the othets in our band could try then during rehersal and a gig. Afterwards, everyone made a decision wether to buy and which model. Of course custom molds translate a little different than universal plugs, but it was a good starting point doing it that way.
hi,
despite that, I would like to ask why you want to usw IEM. If it was for home use only, I would allways use normal headphones. You get way more comfortable and good sounding ones for less money - compared to IEMs.
If you plan to use it live, which is allways a good idea, IEMs are the way to go. Unfortunately, you will have to spend money on this, since the soundquality in your ears mainly depends in the phones - and these can get quite expensive. I myself have used thomann earplugs for about 100€, which were ok-ish, at that time. I ended up with custom IEMs Form vision ears for 1.5k... But they are worth it! You can get wired headphone amp beltpacks from Fisher Amps, I use these too. Or go the wireless Route - again more expenses...
Bluetooth wont work, as already mentioned.
You asked for connections on your desk - I would simply plug the Kempers Output into one, or two channels, if you go stereo. Be careful not to overdrive the input. Then use the built-in headphone amp of the desk and listen to your guitar. From there on, you can develop your live monitoring system, if you planned to do so.
hi,
also was ich gerne mache, um im Mix nicht unterzugehen, ist ein kleiner boost bei 1khz. Zumindest bei gain sounds. Gibt dem ganzen eine leicht "nasale" Note, wenn ich das umschreiben sollte. Mache das mit nem Studio eq in slot x.
Und generell darauf achten, dass nicht zu viele low mids vorhanden sind, die matschen im Kontext gerne. Ist aber natürlich auch abhängig von der Besetzung. Im Trio kit Bass und drums kannst du letztendlich machen was du willst...
ach ja,
danke, frohe Ostern zurück 
hi,
würde ich nicht machen, warum nich direkt auf speakon Buchse gehen? Die sind zum Schrauben. Glaube, dass du mittlerweile noch nicht mal mehr ne Endhülse auf die Litze machen musst. Bei den letzten, die ich verarbeitet habe war da ein kleines Blech mit verbaut, das einen gleichmäßigen Druck auf die Lutze gewährleistet.
hi,
it will propably introduce some phasing, since your iem mix from the desk has an added latency (assuming you are using a digi console).
I would suggest to exclude your guitar signal from the iem mix you receive from the desk and just add this in the Kemper.
