I think it may be worth noting that harmonics that are integer multiples (1x, 2x, 3, x4, 5x), when the amplitude of all harmonics are the same (that never happens in nature), and the transient is the same in all frequencies (also never happens in nature), the resultant sound is what most people would identify as a pipe organ (or perhaps a woodwind sound. That's essentially what additive synthesis is.

I don't think any control on the Kemper would adjust this harmonic series, because the further that one moves away from the harmonic series (with integer based multiples) to inharmonic (ex. 1.1x 1.2x, 3.4x) then the sound becomes metallic white noise-ish. Like pitches white noise, where there is no fundamental.

So, to get back to the questions, what does definition do: it could possibly adjust the amplitude envelope of higher frequencies. Higher frequencies are responsible for what we perceive as transients, which then in turn help to give clarity to a sound's attack part of the envelope.

I'll have to sit and listen and play with the knob. I'm just theorizing...

There are great Dusenberg Doozy and Henriskon profiles on exchange which I use live.

Nice work!

Great phrasing man, well done, I'm happy to see another serial tracker here on the forum , music grows so strong on us , love it as I feel being part of a larger scale project & group

Thanks very much! I feel I've got a lot of work to do on phrasing before it's any good. I'm working on it.

But yes, I've always got something trackin! :).

Thanks again for the kind comment!

Thanks very much waraba !

Well Done !!

it has been on my list for a long time !!

Thanks so much gilles ! If you (or anyone) are interested in the backing track, let me know!

Nicely done, you did a great job on a very challenging piece.

Thanks for the kind words, Per !

An old band of that I was in wanted to cover this song, and then never pulled it off. I decided to make a backing track and see what I could do with it. So much fun to play!

Thanks Per ! I didn't really think of it as a retro sound, but I think I hear what you're hearing.

Here's a version of "Softly as in a Morning Sunrise". If you're interested, the profile is one of the Greg Howe profiles from LivePlayRock. Thanks MrThommy

That's really cool! Great work!

Thanks MuddySludge  whippinpost91850  waraba !

Great sound, and great playing. 5 of 5 stars.

Nice tone and playing! Tough piece indeed, you did a great job!

Thanks Per, the changes are really a challenge to improvise over at that tempo.

Here's a clip from "Humpty Dumpty" by Chick Corea... for me, the changes are quite difficult but I'm happy with how this turned out.

Great jazz phrasing and you sense of swing is right on.

May I ask what profile you used for this?

Cheers,

Thanks Mats, I work hard on rhythm. It's the most important but most difficult thing to really play in the pocket.

The profile I think was probably the Duesenberg Doozy, with top end cut. I use that alot.

Best, Jeremy

Thanks for the comments! I've loved this tune since I started playing. Interesting trivia: This tune is featured in the Karloff Mummy movie, where it appears in the original 3/4 time signature.

Just a chorus of Beautiful Love.

LOL, don't use that word on a german forum

Either of the options that you mention would work, depending on if you want to hear anything else in your headphones.

I use a splitter on the Kemper FOH XLR outputs, which I then run back to a small rackmount mixer and then to my IEM amp. I get signal from other players and mix it in as I like.
