Thats's an amazing find!!! I assume it's functional?
Hopefully it will be added to Rig Manager soon.
Oh yes, because the player has now display 🤭

Effects need certain parameters in order to function. For example, a compressor needs ratio, threshold, attack and release parameters to function effectively. That doesn’t mean, however, that those are all user adjustable parameters; some may well be fixed by the developer.
So it sounds to me like the OP asking about the settings for these fixed parameters.
Yes, you are right, that was my intention …..
-
Is, or will be a documentation available of the used, hidden effect parameters? e.g. Compressor Attack, Squash, Mix, Volume ? Maybe they are adapted when the not hidden parameter(s) changed?

Anybody who can compare with the Player? That would be really nice!

I asked Kemper via chat for hardware upgrade of stage …. It’s Not possible…

The new units look very similar to the old. Maybe they fit the new CPU and DSP boards into the existing sizes?
The real questions for mk1 owners are:
- Where do I send my unit to have it upgraded?
- How much for the upgrade?
If they pulled this off, Kemper would hands down be the best company to ever make guitar gear. No question.I asked Kemper for a stage hardware upgrade : Not possible 😔

You would hear a very thin sound as the the left and right sides try to cancel each other out ... and only the differences between the sides would remain.
You are sending a stereo non-balanced signal to a mono balanced input which eliminates noise by subtracting one signal from the other.
Thanks for your explanation

What came just into my mind ....
What happens when I set the Main Out to stereo and then going to the mixer with a single XLR Cable to a mono channel?
-
to balance the "two tracks" or maybe two separate volumes for Left/Right
Maybe this would be an option for all stereo effects?

Hey,
danke für deine Antwort, eine ähnliche Lösung hab ich mir auch schon gedacht, das einzige was mich noch davon abhält, ist das ich den Player dann auf dem Boden hätte und gerade für daheim die Lautstärke über die App oder Rig Manager regeln müsste, oder ein Volumen Pedal noch anschließen müsste.
Dadurch, um voll auf die App / Rig Manger zu verzichten, hätte ich Quasi den Player, Midi Board und das Volumen Pedal auf dem Boden, ich Glaub aber fast, das ist die einzige Möglichkeit die mir bleibt wenn ich den Player behalten sollte und nicht den Stage hole.
Ich habe mir die YT Videos über den Midi Captain alle angeschaut, und werde aus einem Punkt nicht ganz schlau, ist es möglich Vier Effektblöcke ein / Aus zu schalten Ohne die über Long press zu Aktivieren? das macht für mich sonst so gar keine Sinn
Also ich könnte mich mit der Lösung anfreunden, wenn Ich über den Midi Captain die 5 Rigs auswählen könnte, 4 Effekte schalten, und über den Player die Bänke wechsele + Volumen Pedal
Volume für Normal und Lead mach ich mit Morphing.
Ich hab den Midi Captain Mini 6 und der hat nur 6 Switches und wenn 5 davon für Rig select gelegt sind, dann bleibt ohne long press (was ich für Effekt On/Off auch nicht mag) nur noch ein Switch übrig..... Es gibt auch noch eine Midi Captain mit 10 Switches, den kenn ich allerdings nicht.
Ich denke Playerlösung wird ein Kompromiss bleiben. Dafür kleiner, leichter, preiswerter. Ich hab auch den Stage, der hat halt 12 Taster plus 2 für Tuner Looper + 4 Pedal / Tasteranschlüsse und keine Kompromisse bei Main Outs. Ist kompakt aber schwerer und teuerer (gibt's aber auch gebraucht) Player + Upgrade + Midi Captain + Pedal Taster da kommst du preislich schon in die Nähe eines gebrauchten oder refurbished.

Hallo Nobby,
Ich habe den Player Level III und im Prinzip die gleichen Anforderungen wie du, allerdings nicht live.
Ich habe den Midi Captain Mini 6 und benutzte die Firmware PySwitch von tunetown hier aus dem Forum
Der Thread ist mittlerweile ziemlich lang……
Mit dem Midi Captain schalte ich Bank Up/Down (Long press Switch A/B) und 5 Rigs, Switch 1/2/3/A/B. Beim 2. Click auf die Rig Taster aktiviere ich Morphing und das auch noch zusätzlich mit dem Switch C. Long Press auf Switch C aktiviert den Beat Scanner. Mit Player Switch 1 und 2 schalte ich Effekte On/Off. Mit Switch 3 TAP/Tempo und Tuner (Long press)
Vielleicht hilft dir das bei deiner Entscheidung

So for balanced stereo signal to the mixer a splitter cable which goes to a stereo DI Box and from there with two XLR (R/L) cables to the mixer, is needed. Right?
-
I’m not 100% certain on this so hopefully someone else can confirm it for both of us but my understanding is no it is not balanced in this scenario.
Balanced audio carried the same signal on two sides of cable but one is out of phase with the other. At the receiving end the the phase is reversed on one side which doubles the volume of the main signal and cancels any noise which was present. For this to be possible there needs to be two signals and phase reversal. I can’t see how this possible when the two signals are split at the receiving end. Maybe I’m missing something though so I look forward to a definitive answer from someone more intelligent than me.
I think you are right. This was also my guess. Maybe Kemper can confirm this?
-
Well the new Beta software adds Stereo Out to the XLR of the PLAYER 👍
When I use a standard XLR Microphone cable to the mixer and then add a splitter cable at the opposite side of the mic cable shortly before the mixer. Is the signal up to the splitter before the mixer still balanced?
-
No answers, so I guess it’s not possible. Maybe someone from Kemper is able to clarify?

I replaced the battery in my Stage when I had the date/time issue and it was gone, now for some years.
The quality of CR2032 Batteries is quite different. I had some CR2032 for other devices which where really bad ....

Sorry if this is already answered and I didn't find it ....
I know how to store a preset with the macOS RM and I also know how to select an output preset with the IOS RM App
But I could not figure out how to store a preset with the IOS RM App.Is this possible?
Tx

Good idea! Seems that i forgot to add this to bank actions, too....will fix it. Thanks.
Many Thanks for implemeting this in version 2.3.2

When I have morph activated for a slot , the morph LED for the switch is highlighted, that's perfect for me. When I change the slot via RIG_SELECT_AND_MORPH_STATE the Morph LED is "reset", that's also perfect because. as Kemper mentioned in another thread, that a slot is always loaded with the basic, non morphed setup. When I do a BANK_DOWN() or BANK_UP() with morph activated for a slot, in my case slot one is selected (as I specified in the settings), but the Morph LED keeps ON. Because a slot is always loaded with it's basic setup would it be better to always set the Morph LED deaktivaed, also when the slot is "selected" with BANK_UP() / Down ?
Just an idea which maybe wrong
-
You asked this once before
no, actually i just got the beats ticking in as MIDI messages to lighten up/darken the display, so we dont have a number. If its important, you could program your own callback which estimates the BPM from that, but because the processing jitter between update calls is so high on these devices (up to 100ms), this calculation will never be stable....another idea would be averaging then, but this would lag on tempo changes....so, no real solution to thatGrrrrr sorry for that ….. now I remember 😳
