According to the manual users have reported that this works.

If I understand your situation correctly there appear to be two distinct questions
1 - is the device Mode A compatible
2 - needs to be rack mountable.
I am not an expert in this field and find it as confusing as you but from the research I have done and the wording of the Main Manual P342 this would be my understanding:
From this it appears that any PoE switch that is certified 802.3.af or 802.3at must be compatible due to automatic switching determined by the “power sourcing equipment (the Remote).
With regards to the second question you should be able to source pr make a rack mounting kit to make most devices rack mountable. Funny shaped plastic “consumer” switches should probably be avoided but network switches for office purposes in a regular rectangular metal form factor should be easy enough to make rack mountable.
What I'm saying is that the stomps provide a better distortion for me, than an actual gain amp. So I have absolutely no problem with the distortion or I'd stomps.
Yes I understand. All I was suggesting was that maybe the actual stomp style is part of what makes it sound “better”.
Some stomps like OSC, DS1 etc don’t have any clean signal in them whereas others based on the Tube Screamer topology do have an element of clean signal.
I was really asking whether you find all OD/DS stomps sound better or just the particular style which has some clean blended in.
What distortion/OD are you using? Green Scream and Kemper Drive both have a little direct signal blended in with the OD which might account for better note separation.
In the rig menu. Scroll down and you will see a list of all the footswitches. Click on one an all the possible functions will appear as a side menu. To add one click on it. To remove one click on it again.
Almost certainly hardware. Contact Support and have them help you out.
As others have said, it is almost certainly just the acoustic sound of the strings. We’ve all been there at one time. I even tried with head phones and it was worse than normal. Then I realised the head-hone cable was touching the guitar and transferring sound like the old school “telephone” experiment with two plastic cups and a piece of string 🤦♂️
Display MoreI was playing this today, and couldn't remember if I'd shared a photo of it with you.
If you look closely, you'll see that this guitar has a bound headstock. This tiny detail sets it apart from the stock versions of this guitar.
I got my Hamer Sunburst Studio GATC in 1990-ish, and played it a lot. Unfortunately, it got damaged, so I shipped it back to Hamer Guitars for repair. About four months later, I got a phone call from none other than Jol Dantzig. He was very apologetic because, somehow, someone had misinterpreted the damage as a factory blemish. Hamer didn't sell "B" stock. Their practice was to crush substandard guitars. He was calling to tell me that my guitar had been crushed. He said that he had inspected the neck and could see that I had loved and played that guitar a lot. He offered to make me a new one and asked if there were any special features that I'd like. The only thing I wanted was a bound headstock to go with the body and neck binding.
Jol said he would go down to the wood room and pick something special for me. He warned me it would take a while to make the new guitar because they were a small factory making handmade instruments, but promised me it would be worth the wait. It took over a year, but this stunning guitar was everything Jol said it would be. As a tribute to the first one, Jol stamped it with the original serial number.
Wow. That's a fantastic story. Definitely a one off instrument with special sentimental value on top.
So patch to ableton and use its meters. Double check with ears. Might be a good feature suggestion, a meter for percieved loudness.
No. What I really said was; don’t bother with meters just use ears. loudness meter has been asked for several times in the feature request section but doesn’t seem something Kemper are likely to implement.
Another reason to use the Crunch rig as a default is that some profilers (both amateur and profession) significantly boost the level of their rigs. Presumably to make them stand out when people are browsing as louder is usually associated with better. A sort of Loudness Wars for profiles 
If you use a rig you like which is particularly loud you can end up needing to boost everything and in some cases can end up with no where to go when you actually do want a boost..... The profiler doesn't go to 11.
ok... i think that i have now my last guitar for all my life...
Gibson Les Paul Custom Axcess Bengal Burst (impossible to find two the same)
I'm not a Les Paul by any stretch of the imagination. Never been able to get on with them but that is WOW! Just WOW!!!
Are you saying support haven't replied to you either? That would be extremely unusual.
Don’t waste your time trying to level perceived volume with a dB meter. A Loudness meter in a DAW can get you in the rough ball park (as it compensates for frequency response) but you will still need to do final adjustments by ear so you might as well skip the meter and just use your ears from the start.
Listen at a reasonably loud volume. Many will say you need to listen at full gig volume because the way our ears respond to different frequencies (Google Equal Loudness Curves or Fletcher Munsen for more information). However, it isn’t really necessary to hurt your ears by listening that loud and is actually counter productive due to hearing fatigue. But you do need to listen at a high enough level that you’re not getting a misleading impression of low and high frequencies relative to mids. Anything above 80-85dB should be fine (that’s why mixing and mastering engineers listen around that level - it’s loud enough for a good balance but not so loud as to damage hearing or cause fatigue too quickly).
To set levels between rigs use a single reference rig (The default Crunch rig is the obvious choice) and adjust Rig volume to find the right balance for your needs. Don’t over think it. You wouldn’t have used a meter to balance the channels on a 2 or 3 channel valve amp so treat the Kemper the same way.
He needs to contact support.
They definitely will have replied if he emailed them but sometimes the replies get trapped in spam filters or junk folders. Tell him to check there.
Never adjust anything in your DAW with faders or gain plugins when recording.
It is irrelevant where you set gain plugins or fader when recording as these only affect the audio file after recording. I was only referring to using a gain plugin to bring the track level down when mixing to avoid having to run all the faders at ridiculously low levels during the mix and provide sufficient headroom on the master bus.
In the past I always tried to keep input levels around -12db by reducing the level from my interface into the daw.
Just use a regular unbalanced TS cable (guitar cable) on the monitor out for the time being. You don’t really need a balance signal for a relatively short line level signal. It would be different for long mic level runs but for a monitor out it isn’t necessary.
Don;t know much about Simon Phillips but love his playing on Darwin
DarWin – Inside This Zoo (HD Official Video) (With Simon Phillips, Greg Howe, Mohini Dey and More)
He’s an absolute monster player. I saw him back on the 90’s at Manchester Apollo on his first Toto tour - phenomenal. His solo work is is amazing too. Take a look at his back catalogue on Wikipedia.
i was of the same opinion until recently when I read Mixing With Your Mind by Michael Stavrou.
The Kemper USB out is super hot and makes mixing a pain in the ass. Having to reduce faders to stupidly low levels to compensate places faders in a let than idea; range. The solution is to insert a gain plugin in the channel and trim the gain to keep faders at a manageable level. According to Stav this lets you use the full number of bits for resolution/dynamic range without compromising fader position/resolution. I now have a gain plugin in the channel strip preset in Logic.
Sounds like a very poorly designed/conceived radio system. I would send it back and get something else.
The Lehle dual input won’t do anything as a a dual expression pedal that the Mission can’t to. The second output on the Lehel could be configured as a switch though like the Mission. In that scenario I would take the Lehle over the Mission as travel should be lpnger and the vbuild quality better.
