I have a weird dilemma. I've recently switched to using the Kemper as part of my live rig. I've mostly been able to make the transition (coming from pedals and amps) but I have one specific sound that I'm having a hard time with. It's an integral part to my band's live show.
I've always used an Eventide Space on the Blackhole setting and then assigned the "hot switch" button to be the "infinite" setting on the feedback parameter. This would swell up with tons of feedback and then I'd hit the hot switch again to let it release with a nice decay. There are a few spots throughout the live show where we use this. Unfortunately, the band wants me to control this because depending on the venue the timing changes (so it's not really a case for putting this part in tracks).
Seeing the new "hold" and "infinite" features on the new delays in Kemper 5.0, I was thinking I'd be able to duplicate something similar to this. Not quite so much...not yet anyway. Does anyone have any experience with the sound I'm looking for? I could create a recording if this helps.
Basically, I was really loving the idea of having only the Kemper and remote and not needing to rely on any external pedals (mainly so I only have one cable running to the remote and don't need to worry about power, etc.) I'm just afraid I won't be able to get away from this sound that is so unique to the Eventide though.
IF this sound is unable to be replicated by the Kemper, my next idea would be to get an H9 and put it in the rack with the Kemper since the Space pedal is too big. However, in order to activate the hot switch on the H9, I believe you have to send it CC commands. Is this possible to do with the Kemper and somehow assign a switch on the Kemper remote to just activate the "hot switch" on the H9? If so, I would probably just buy an H9 and be done with it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
