Not only is this a great backup but a great little amp to have to warm up before a show.

I think if you change how you view the “Player” it’s usage becomes a lot more clear. This is meant to go onto a persons existing pedal board so that you don’t need to bring a traditional amp with you.

So, if you view the “Player” as a traditional amplifier and view the effects on it as what would come standard on a tube amp, then it all makes sense. Think of other products like the UA Dream, or UA Lion, they are a single amp box. With the “Player” I can bring many amps that I might want to use, with the Liquid Profiles we will have authentic amps.

If you need a replacement for your amps and pedal board, then the Stage is what you need.

This is my opinion and how I am/ will be using it.

What??? Take my money now 💰

Finally , it’s become reality. Happy day for sure

I use the Sennheiser EW-100 guitar wireless and the Shure PSM 300 IEM with the Shure SE535 ear buds.

They work great and no lost signals at all.

The one thing I need to do is have the wireless packs on opposite sides of my body when in use.

Yes please!

Wow! Cool news. Kemper pushing the envelope of what’s possible once again.

The sound guy plugs an XLR cable into your Kemper Main Output.
Your Kemper cabinet plugs into the Kemper powered monitor out (red output).
Set your main output to -12db ( soft button)

Unlink your main Kemper volume so that you only control your monitor output and not the main output. This way you can control the sound level of your cabinet onstage without affecting the volume at the soundboard.

Hi, using your RB400 plug the Kemper monitor output into the effects return on the RB400. That way you are bypassing the RB400 pre-amp. Then turn the option on the Kemper to turn off the cabinet on the monitor output. Then plug your RB into a bass cabinet and rock out.

Yes the bass cabinet will colour your sound as it will be the sound of that cabinet. Try different cabinets to find a suitable setup. Not all cabinets are created equal. Also use the EQ in your monitor outputs to dial in for the room you play.

If you still prefer the sound of the PA monitor, try adding a small sub to go along with it to handle the low end.

I owned one several years ago. Played with many profiles, but never edited any of them. Just got a new one and was prepared to dig in. But the manual’s aren’t very clear on what to press/turn to do things. And what had to be done on the profiler versus in Rig Mgr? I need a Kemper for Dummies manual/book. I didn’t see a single book on Amazon.

Go to the Kemper YouTube channel , they have quite a few videos that take you through many parameters and what they do.

I have a few gigs this week but after that I’ll try the Beta and see what happens.

Burkhard did they finally mange to recreate the error?

I usually use my DAW and play my various rigs that I use in a song context. I then adjust the clean/dirty/lead sounds to sit in the mix as you would expect.
You still should listen and adjust at stage volume as well but you will be closer or good for sure.
I adjust my output EQ as need for the venue after that.
I have Kemper set at -12db for FOH

drog This is still pending. Please open a support ticket and send us those Rigs which have reduced level.

Unfortunately I downgraded my Kemper and did not save anything from 8.7.15. before I had seen your note. Sorry
I did gig this weekend with 8.7.10 without any issues.

The latest OS did the same thing to me. I’ve since loaded an older one I had.

As per the issue in OS 8.5.4

“We have a new OS release revision 8.5.6, which fixes the issue of accidental Rig Volume reduction by -18.5 dB affecting a few rigs under OS 8.5.4”

This is EXACTLY what is happening again in this latest OS.

I doubt all this is software related.

We are chasing an issue, where the sound disappears completely in Performance Mode when returning to a Slot within the same Performance which had been loaded before. A restart recovers the sound always correctly. And there are no corresponding issues regarding the user interface at all.

This "loss of overdrive" sounds more like an issue in the signal chain: guitar, guitar battery, cable, wireless audio transmission, other gear looped in with cables and batteries, expression pedals, switches and their cables. Here I would also check, if all inputs and outputs are affected e.g. ALTERNATIVE IN, HEADPHONE OUT.

The complete hang of the user interface that you describe is not related to the current OS, which is used by many thousand users. I guess, you would have the same with an old OS.

I suggest you open a support ticket.

Well I went back to 8.0.6.24597

so far so good!

I have older versions on my computer, put it on a USB stick

I’ve definitely had the sound cut out in performance mode while changing patches.

I’ll see if I can trace the other issue .

I hope we see a patch for the first issue soon.
For now I’m downgraded to an older version. I’ll also see if the other issue continues

This latest release has been a nightmare for me, it’s really unstable. Loss of sound, also at times the amp drive just disappears . The only solution is a reboot.
This is not ideal during a show.
I have zero faith in using my Kemper now.

I had a terrible gig with the latest release.
Using performance mode.
Sound cut out/stopped working had to reboot three (3) times during a show. Also had a sudden loss of overdrive , had to again reboot twice during a show to solve that.

I also had a strange issue at boot up where you had no sound and could not switch rigs, even the main knob did not work as I tried to power down and nothing happened. It was all locked up. I had to unplug the Kemper and then restart.

I have been using Kemper since 2013 and these last few releases have become very unstable, it’s never been like this before. This has become really unacceptable at this point. Hopefully I can go back a few releases to solve all of this. I’m at at point now where I am going to leave my Kemper on the shelf and gig with something else until it becomes stable. Back to tube amps for now.
