My old Eleven Rack has a front Mic input with 48 V phantom power. Now we have USB audio capability with the Kemper. It has a mic input at the back for profiling purposes. Would it be possible to use this mic input to record with a mic in our DAW via USB audio?
Mic Preamp over USB audio

The only issue I can see is that the KPA doesn’t have 48v phantom. Although repurposing the Return XLR for recording mic might be possible with only a software update, I would be surprised if phantom could be added without hardware updates.

This feature does already exist since OS 9.0. "Return Inputs" is available as Output Source for S/PDIF and USB. Check out page 127 of the current Main Manual.
Return Inputs
Head and Rack models source signal from RETURN and ALTERNATIVE IN; Stage sources signal from RETURN 1 and 2.
The PROFILER doesn't provide phantom power.
