Hi warum löscht du meinen Beitrag? Ich brauch hier Hilfe, die hab ich von Dir aber nicht bekommen. Würde mich mal interessieren was das soll? Woher soll ich wissen , daß man den Kemper ständig updaten muß.

Hallo,

du hattest deine Frage zwei mal gepostet, daher habe ich einen Thread gelöscht.
Da du deinen Post in Deutsch verfasst hast, habe ich ihn in das deutschsprachige Unterforum verschoben:

Kemper Rack System Update nicht möglich

Hallo,

ich besitze einen Kemper Rack mit AMP, den ich 2014 erworben habe. Leider hab ich ihn nicht lange benutzt da ich mehr der Analoge Typ bin. Nun ist es aber von Nöten, daß ich den Kemper einsetzen muß. Da ich nie irgend welche Updates gemach habe ist das Kemper Betriebssystem noch auf der Version Release 2.7.4.10594 vom Jahr 2014.

Da ich mir einige Rigs besorgt habe, die mir gefallen und meinem analogen AMP sehr nahe kommen, ist es nicht möglich diese zu laden, da mein Kemper Betriebssystem…

'ständig' muss man den PROFILER nicht updaten, aber nach über zehn Jahren kann es durchaus Sinn machen :)
in den Updates gab es einmal eine Änderung im File-Format, weshalb OS Versionen vor 7.3 erst auf 7.3.2 gebracht werden müssen. Sonst sind keine Zwischenschritte nötig.

"OS versions before OS 7.3, OS 7.3.2 needs to be installed first! Older versions than OS 7.3 on these models don't recognize this new integrated OS revision. For this purpose please open a support ticket at the KEMPER web page and request special upgrade package."

Hi Don,

I've gone down the rabbit hole trying to find your "PITCH Wide Sitar 2" profile after reading many old threads and reviewing the RE / Rig Packs Downloads. And I keep coming up short.

Is this profile still available and can you share it with me.

Thanks, Brian

I wrote the question: Will it be a choice or does that mean My updating days will be over soon?

It wasn't an opinion, but a question. It turned into an opinion thread after some comments.

Sorry if not needing something new rubs anyone the wrong way, it was not my intention, only to ask the question.

@DonPetersen why was my post trashed because "OT"?

What is that?

DonPetersen
December 29, 2022 at 11:22 AM

OT means off topic -

the 'gems'-thread is only for posts of great rigs from the Rig Exchange only,
no comments or other posts are allowed since this would dilute the information gathered in this thread
(as has happened in so many other threads in this forum)

best,

Hi Don,

Hope all is well. I am having problems syncing up RM walk-with my profiler (all just updated, MAC). It's giving me performance from years ago only, nothing at all current or edited. I have submitted a support ticket so I'll m not asking to you help out.

I happened to map out your company's headquarters - turns out I played up the street from you guys, opening for Procol Harum several years ago in Wuppertal (I'm from the US if you don't recall). Thought that was cool.

All the best.

Sorry to hear about your RM troubles, I'm sure the support will find a solution. :)

Best,

Hello Don! I see you closed that Kemper, AMS EZ payments thread. I was going to update with a note I got from Kemper US. He told me this:

"That is wrong. That would have been me that made that call. They want US to pay for financing and we don’t, so sounds like they are trying to blame us for not offering THEIR financing."

So who knows what really happened. All I know is I want a pair of powered Kabs asap. Thanks

Hey Don,

I saw your post in the thread about Fuzz not working with Kemper. It is appears you are the Father of Fuzz so I hope you do not mind if I ask a question.

I recently built a Silicone Fuzz kit and I am trying to get the glassy tone like in the Pete Thorn video. Is that possible with a Silicone Transistor or does it have to have Germanium in it?

I did try with my old 80s MIJ Fernandes copy with the Kemper and one of my tube amps. I could not get that sound. Maybe it is the guitar? Or maybe it is not possible with Silicone transistors.

If it possible, any good Kemper profiles you would recommend for it?

Thanks for time

Brian

Hi Don, i remember coming across some cool helpful fuzz settings you had shared. I’m trying to find the post again but I can’t. Do you mind sharing that post if it’s still up or just filling me in on some more options. I’m going for that Hendrix / Eric Johnson fuzz.

Hi Don,

I wish to inquire about best amp - kemper settings for electric finger picking. Would it go best under profiler discussion or tips - tricks? Wish to post in the correct location.

Dave

DonPetersen
November 7, 2020 at 11:59 AM

Hi Mookytc
thanks for your inquiry :)
I guess Profiler - questions & answers.

Tips & Tricks is really more about posting tips and tricks, not questions.

My tip (without really knowing what you are looking for):
Try the Compression parameter in the AMPLIFIER module.

Hi Don,

I noticed you have just moved my thread "What I Hear Is Not What I Get" from general forum to private commercial third party rigs discussion. Although the thread might look as a discussion on a particular rig, my question was a general one - I have/had the issue with Kemper in general and used that rig just in order to demonstrate my case (meaning since this is supposedly a high quality rig we can take the possibility of the rig being of low-quality out of the equation and I would like to find out what the problem really is). I would like to have some more feedback and fear that moving the thread to this section won´t help it much. Do you think you could please reconsider?

Thank you

"my question was a general one" - and was certainly understood as such by the commentators.

in the first post of that thread you embedded a youtube demo of a commercial rig pack, regardless of context, this thread can only exist in the Third party Rigs subforum.

costojanku
May 21, 2020 at 1:37 AM

As I said, I´m fine with that. Nevertheless, before joining the forum I did read the guidelines (Forum Guidelines) and no such rule is indicated there so maybe you might care to update, given you are so strict with the thread placement, to prevent surprises of a kind.

Anyway, I am still getting replies (which I feared I won´t), so in the end I don´t mind.

Hi Don,

Based on your white noise I created sound samples of Vox Big Bad Wah which was demanded in the forum. Let me know your email if you're interested to share it with others :)

Don- I am a new kemper owner. I have just profiled my main amp to gig with and could not get my custom fuzzface profile to take. I know it won't work even so with the single coil to fuzzface interaction that I am so used to (this may be the death of the kemper for me). I was doing a search and found your post about your germanium fuzz and you sound like me and my quest. I have about 8 fuzzes custom done with NOS transistors and have ONE that I LOVE>

My Rig=1971 small box marshall with 4x12 scumbacks, so pretty traditional. I am itching to replace it, but NEED this sound a few times a night!

Anyway, I can't seem to locate your fuzz recreation. Usually use it in conjunction with a klon (to get some mid back), and have profiled that, but need the fuzz!!!!

thanks for your help.

Hi Rich,

here‘s the setting I used to emulate my FF: my germanium Fuzz Face

It will be different from your FF, but maybe I can help you with that.

Send me a PM, please.

Don

toolowd
January 20, 2020 at 6:49 PM

Thanks Don.

I can't PM you, as the forum says you have too many conversations going.

I'll ask here,

how do you have the 'MIX' Control set? Is it the "old" one from the choices?

thanks!!!

I usually use the fuzz into a klon (both gained down) and that is what I love. I have done profiles of my amp with the Klon on, but the fuzz won't profile because of the noise while hooked to the kemper. VERY quiet with the amp, so I am sure its that impedance thing with the single coil pickups.

Anyway, thank for your help.

Don -

You moved a post of mine into the owner's area (looking for EVH profiles). Trouble is, I am using a loaner KPA; since I'm not the owner, I'm not registered as an owner and I now cannot respond in the thread that I started. Could I request that you move it back?

Thanks

DonPetersen
January 16, 2020 at 6:20 PM

Hi,

the thread included multiple posts about commercial Profiles, which is why it had to be moved into the commercial subsection.

You can still read the suggestions, and if you like you can open another threas where you specify (in the title) that you are looking for free Profiles.

Hi Don,

Just found a thread about wah settings: need help setting up your Wah in the Profiler? do you own a rare Wah? let me know.

I have a Fulltone clyde deluxe wah and I want to get that sound in my kemper.

I'm trying but still not happy.

Do you still transfer the characteristics of Wah pedals?

If so; can i send you the white noise files?

Best regards,

Hi Don,

I'm loving v7 by the way, so thanks to the whole team, you guys rock!

I've just tweaked a rig and produced what I think is the closest I've heard to a violin and kind of wanted to share this with the good folks on here. Since I did not make the original profile, wasn't sure this was kosher, so I thought I'd ask you first if this was ok to share... sort of like I did with that Trower univibe effect. What do you think?

Cheers!

Gary

Hi Gary,

thank you for your kind words, it is much appreciated! :)

In this case I think it would be best, if you contacted the author of the Profile and got his permission to upload an altered version of his creation.

Does the effect really depend so much on the amp/cab, though? Or is it more a clever combination of effects?

Thanks

Don

prsgary
August 3, 2019 at 1:31 PM

I think it's more a factor of effects, amp and cab interchangeable within limits.

Hi Don,

I am contacting you directly since I know you have a lot of pedals and I guess you have experienced using your overdrives with the Kemper at some point, right?

I like using drive pedals in front of the Kemper (only the ones I can't replicate with the Kemper, yet)

But, now I want to use the pedals in stomp C or D using FX Loop before the stack section, so I can use the Remote to control them.

I've tried all FX loop settings (Mono, Distortion, Stereo) but the sound I get is not the same. It's like the pedal losses it's drive tone. I was able to level the audio volume level sent to the pedal and coming from the pedal, but when I A/B the setup in front of the Kemper vs. the FX loop there is a noticeable difference. I've realized that some KP forum members noticed the same difference.

May it is caused by the different analog-digital conversions going on in each setup?

Any advice you could share using drive pedals in the FX loop or how to work around this?

Please PM if you can.

Thanks

Alex
