  • "Rigmanager is performing a task"

    hi,

    does it bear a risk to quit this task earlier manually (e.g. when a RM update requires action)?

    Background of my question: I had to realize messed up tags in performances the other day, especially names of rig authors, and I have no explanation...

    thanks

  • OS 10 beta is out! Let's get Liquid!

    just updated in a narrow timeframe (can't wait) and checked a AC30 Profile with AC30 gain- and eqstack : incedible! now AC30 acts like the real Amp like I know it, most astonishing to me is the sound in different gainstages - eagerly waiting to have more time playing around this evening

  • Hitzeschutz

    hab mit Kemper (Rack) und Yamaha schon ein paar Hitzeschlachten geschlagen, 30 Grad in praller Sonne, die Geräte waren gut 2 Strunden durchgehend in Betrieb: kein Mucks, haben tadellos durchgehalten - wo allerdings die Grenze liegt, k.A.

    Sollte das allerdings nochmal auf mich zukommen, werd ich für die Geräte für Sonnenschutz sorgen, Schirm o.Ä. (z.B. alter Mikroständer, Regenschirm dran ) , dann fühl ich mich auf der sicheren Seite

  • Why I have a Kemper Profiler and Tube Amps

    welcome!

    when I purchased my first Profiler in 2015, after first impressions I was sure I can get rid of my "suseguitar"-combo and my Engl-860 Head - I was wrong. I'm no mystic, not at all, but there is just more than the technical aspect. Firing up one of my tubeamps, sometimes, just for fun, is something special, can't explain.

    For my situation the Profiler is the best solution in terms of soundquality, weight and volume to be moved.

    If I would have some roadies available moving my stuff I probably would have never switched away from tubeamps.

  • Profiler owners - what makes you any different?

    Quote from Ruefus

    Given that the OP still hasn’t commented again - not even logged in since starting this thread:


    Troll.

    nevertheless, it turned out to grow an interesting thread...

    for my feeling I'm "on the save side", means: if the Kemper company would completely disappear from now on (what noone would wish ), this wouldn't impact my playing world in any way. The Profiler does a lot more I ever dreamed of - the rest of my personal displeasedness belonges completely to my limited playing skills.

    The Rigmanager was a nice idea... not more to me... I'm running my homestudio completely in Linux, so I needed a 2nd machine just for RM. I tried to use my old Thinkpad R61, but it's far to slow, and my patience is limited. Thanks God I get all my stuff done with my 2 Profilers and usb-sticks and I'm more than pleased with the outcome.

  • Welche Boxen empfehlt ihr ?

    ich nutze seit 2015 DXR10, letztes Jahr hab ich eine zweite dazugekauft, eine allein ist mir für Direktbeschallung bei keineren Auftritten doch etwas dünn. Ich hab auch mal mit Endstufe und Gitarrenboxen experimentiert, hatte aber kein langes Leben, da klingt alles gleich, die Boxen machen eben ne Menge aus.

    Die Neigung der DXR10 zu leichter Schärfe im Höhenbereich läßt sich mit entsprechenden Einstellungen am Kemper gut im Zaum halten. Und: sie haben mich noch nie im Stich gelassen.

  • my first profiles from my completely custom (self)built Combo

    hi,

    after a couple of years I've finally done it: I took some profiles from my completely custombuild 1x12/ 6L6 Combo, nothing exciting, just fun, the few pictures might provide some impressions, I built it in mid nineties. It's completely free handwired (and if you would take a look inside you might not believe that it's reliable enough to stand only one gig - - but I played several of them and never had any trouble).

    If you like, take a look into rig exchange and search for my username to find three profiles:

    Combo clean

    Combo crunch

    Combo lead

    thanks for your attention, have fun!

  • Kemper Stage Switch 2 failing!!

    a few month ago I had to face some failing of switch 4, sometimes it worked, sometimes not.

    I contacted Kempersupport and they told me how to check button-functionality.

    I did it and everything worked fine: I pressed the button a hundred times with my finger and the machine counted exactly 100 switch operations. I did this more than only one time.

    However, as soon as I returned to "normal rehearsal business" the button returned to it's unreliability, too.

    The result of this now is, that I strongly hesitate to play a gig with this machine - on the other hand there is no gig in sight - you know why

    The Kempersupport told me, I must wait untill the button fails in a way, that the check mode prooves the failing - what my technical mind has to accept .

    The other day I read of someone who had opened his Stage doing some cleaning of buttoncontacts which solved his problem...

    for now I decided to live with the situation watching what will happen...

  • Legends Collection

    today I worked on a new project, going to record some guitar tracks... I took one of the Thomas Dill rigs, the one representing the Santana sound, deactivated fx and played with both, sc and hb guitars - and it worked out of the box, a very balanced fat sound, which lives almost perfectly within the mix, no big eq-ing necessary, I was impressed and can only say: great job Thomas Dill and thanks to Kemper for the release

  • Rigmanager - NET framework issue on win10

    hi all,

    it's no showstopper for me, but in principle I can hardly stand those (to me) unexplainable issues... :


    the other day I got snoopy to throw an eye on rigmanager, so I updated the (normally unused) win10 partition on my Thinkpad W520 to latest update-status and installed latest Rigmanager.

    Connecting the Profiler tells me: "the hardware is installed and ready to use..."


    Now I start rigmanager and get this message:


    (entire text see attached "rigmanager_fehlermeldung.txt" (it's in english)),


    followed by this empty RM-window:


    I had some mailexchange with the Kempersupport, they gave me some hints to reinstall, but in the end they are not able to help.

    Maybe somebody here might have the skills to give me a hint, how this strange issue could be solved...

    thanks,

    Suse

  • Komplette Performance auf USB speichern

    Quote from IngoRockt

    Das funktioniert nicht. Woher soll der Profiler wissen, wo die Performances vom USB-Stick abgelegt werden sollen?

    hinten anhängen? zum Beispiel? (sofern Platz ist, ansonsten:"error")... sorry, der Punkt is hier schon verschiedentlich aufgetaucht, es scheint also einen Bedarf zu geben und ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, daß es dafür keine programmtechnische Lösung gibt... so man eine finden möchte... aber vl. hab ich ja keine Ahnung und denke Blödsinn...

  • My "ultimate" HSS Strat Wiring

    Quote from sambrox

    The only thing I think I'd like to do differently would be to have the middle position engage the neck and the coil closest to the bridge of the humbucker, in parallel, tele style. That would be my ideal. Even better if it was only if the switch was in the “low output” position, so the other was à la Strat.

    this is exactly what the "EYB-Megaswitch" is doing
