  • Best way to set up Apollo X6 with KPA for reamping and channel seperation?

    Quote from Wheresthedug

    I don’t own an Apollo so can confirrm this from personal experience but……

    I would send direct out to High Z input on Apollo for DI signal.

    The Amp signal doesn’t need High Z as it is on;y the guitar pickups that need a High Z input.

    Hey Alan! 👋

    Yeah that helps to know. But the DI signal is not something I will listen to whilst playing, and the High-Z is mostly important when playing, to get the right "feel"? That's why I was thinking maybe I would need it on the amp/stack section aswell, because that's what I will listen to while playing?

    I'm wondering how most musicians do this with Kemper. I might aswell just mash together the whole rig in to two stereo high-z inputs, but then I won't be able to individually stilt the effects from the amp and cab. Definately pros and cons here, because the latter is probably easier with less tracks in DAW, but at the same time I want total controll over the wet signals

  • Best way to set up Apollo X6 with KPA for reamping and channel seperation?

    Hi guys!

    I wonder if I can get more input on this. I am setting this up for possible reamping, but first and foremost to stilt all effects away from each other.

    • I have right now the KPA Stage set up with "Main out TS" directly to the Apollo X6 front High Z panel, with TS cables, I'm thinking perhaps for stereo MOD effects.
    • I have then assigned the S/PDIF to stereo REV/DLY.

    But I also need at the same time to record a dry DI signal, aswell as stack signal. I assume both DI and Stack should be in High-Z in order to get the amp feel.

    How's the best way to go around this, so I don't "over engineer" this whole thing? I want to maintain the amp-feel with high z, and perhaps I should use the Apollo X6's two front High-Z inputs for "DI / Stack", and then continue to use SPDIF for DLY/Rev. But what to do with the Stereo MOD that I also want to output? Any ideas or tips?

  • What is Kone and imprints?

    Thanks guys. So I was not far off in my absumptions that imprints replaces cabs in this matter. "By activating Monitor Cab Off, you suppress the cabinet simulation selectively for the MONITOR OUTPUT", thanks for referring me to the correct page of the main manual!

  • What is Kone and imprints?

    I've been looking to buy a Kemper Kabinet for days now, to pair with my Kemper Stage. I see the buzzword "imprints" and "Kone", but I don't understand what this means. In my head I am guessing that you cannot use cab simulation with the Kabinet, and that "imprints" is the one taking over for that? That we need to use "direct profiles" in conjunction with "imprints" instead of "cab"? Have I got this correctly?

  • Monitoring Superior Drummer 3 through the Roland TD17KVX module

    Thanks! I think it's possible to receive sound from within the module, I just can't figure out why.. I'm sure I read it somewhere, but I can't find that article again. I'd rather not have any more cables than I already have

    EDIT: I actually found out! After months of wanting to do this! I just had to change USB mode from GENERIC to Vendor! Then TD17 came up as an ASIO alternative in the SD3 audio-routing menu! This is very strange! In a good way, ofcourse :)

  • Any good wireless guitar systems that can easily swap batteries?

    You can change the batterie very easy
    inside it's a CR2 or CR123A Li-ion 3,6V Batterie

    CR123A H: 34.5 mm Ø: 17 mm

    Okay I've decided to try to swap this one. Do you know if both of these batteries you mentioned will work?

    V8guitar Thanks! Now I understand! :)

    paults problem with those higher ends is that they are cumbersome to use at home. I have a setup here where I tell Google to turn on my PA and mixer table, and then I just pick up the guitar and start to play. So I need a set that has integrated batteries with the jack itself.

    Ruefus Yes you're right. I expect to have to learn how to swap the batteries myself. The G10 we'd have to remove the cap on the batteries, and it's said in the video to not try this unless we know what we're doing, so it's a high risk especially for someone inexperienced like me.

    I was looking at the shape of the Sennheiser XSW-D and it looked more like something that could be more easily swapped

    And then I found this forum https://www.eoshd.com/comments/topic…sw-d-batteries/

    It shows that the Sennheiser has this normal standard 3.7V/850mAh 14500 battery. It looks easier to swap, and I'd be fine with that, as long as there is a good and "safe"-ish guide on how to do it.

    Is it part of a firmware problem that ruined battery life? https://line6.com/support/topic/…e-battery-life/

    If that doesn't work, have you considered buying a repplacement transmitter?

    It's out of question because of several reasons. First reason is that it's designed to die out after a few years, making you have to buy a new one. Always having to bin it and buy a new one.. It's a market practice I'm not very fond of, and I want a set that I can have for decades. Also, the transmitter is crazy expensive for what it's really worth..

    I know that at some point I have to give my money to a brand that has the same practice, but hopefully a brand that I can easily swap it myself without too much hassle and fire hazard (Looking hopeful at Sennheiser).

    V8guitar Are you talking about the Sennheiser XSW-D? How did you make it at the back plate of you're rack? I'm not fully understanding your setup. I'd love to see how it looks :)

    If this set is working great, and that the batteries can be changed easily down the road, I'm gonna go for this set.. Both for XLR mics and for my guitar pedalboard.

    Hi guys

    I'm looking for something like the Relay G10 I have, or the Sennheiser XSW-D set, preferably with only one battery on the transmitter - meaning that the receiver end doesn't need battery and is a charging port (not a MUST, but preferrable).. I want a new set that can swap disposable batteries. If no disposable battery swap, I want a set that uses common batteriy standards that are easily swappable after some years. My Relay G10 lasted two years and it's now completely dead, and battery change is very difficult on this unit without any hazards and I have to bin it.. I want a new system that I can have for decades, and I don't want internal batteries to dictate it's logevity. Any good recommendations? I'm looking at the Sennheiser XSW-D now, but it has internal batteries unfortunately. Perhaps it's easily swappable down the road?

  • Is the touch wah effect good enough?

    Hi guys. So I've been messing a lot around with the touch wah in order to recreate the John Mayer or Tom Misch Qtron Touch Wah effect, but to no avail. At best I'm about 70% there.

    I just have one question though. Is it so that some of these Kemper effects are "sub par", without trying to be offensive ofcourse? I am for real looking in to putting my Kemper Stage on a pedalboard and buy me a Qtron and other needed pedals, but I am not sure if I'm wasting money out of the window.. Would it be a good upgrade? Or would it be a sidegrade?

    I am looking for that fat, smooth saturated touch wah sound, and to my ears it sounds like the standalone pedals are the top notch ones. I don't know why though?
