You may be the only one waiting. 🙂

You just need to put the Chorus in one of the stereo effect slots. Lush and stereo baby! 😎

That's an impressive collection of picks!!! 😎

My guess is he built his own version of a battery-powered inductance coil string driver (like an eBow), and put that little antennae on it as a joke. It may have been too simple of a circuit to avoid patent infringement, or just too specialized of a product when he was ready to release his own line.

EDIT: I just watched more of the video than I did the first time. I agree with the the below comment - it looks like he is using a signal splitter box, as a guitar slide. Like the one in the picture, but with a metal case.

I honestly think it's just a make shift slide, because it was what he had to use at that time. The actual device in his hand looks like it has a 1/4" plug on the end. Possibly a piece of a wireless system or connection coupler. The delay sound is from his hyperspace pedal. Right before this item is used you can see him walking to the side of the stage, probably looking for something to use. I've done this before, misplaced a slide & improvised with something else.

Or perhaps it makes that explosion sound like Steve Stevens Ray Gun, in combo with the hyperspace delay to make it sound like a ship taking off.

The answer! Nice one. He's probably rubbing that back and forth on the strings while changing the Hyperdrive with a foot pedal. He's off camera for that.

I have to come clean and say I've never tried re-amping due to the complexity. I understand the benefit, but it's always easier (in my case) to record a new track with a more appropriate profile. I think I get better with each take.

I like to pan 2 identical rhythm takes hard L/R with different profiles and guitars. A standard studio trick I think.

But... I'll give re-amping a go once I digest the info.

You also need to really deep dive into how to set up your inputs and outputs in Studio One as there are lots of options.

Hi there - I almost always use ducking with delay to varying degrees, but with rhythm parts I tend to use less ducking. I play clean rhythm tones a lot, so even with a touch of compression there's still a lot of dynamics for the ducking to use.

I would expect a high gain rhythm tone to behave more on/off in terms of ducking.

Moin Kemperaner,

I've been using the toaster for a few years now and haven't found a reason to use another piece of hardware because I've always been able to do everything I found important with it - especially on stage. But now I have a problem that I can't find a solution to - and it's about the possibility of "ducking".

Background: I like reverb and delay in solos - but only where there is "space" - usually when I leave a note or play with little attack - i.e. quietly. The ducking parameter in the effects is great for that - you can easily control it there. Even if the best settings are somewhere in the 0.1 - 1.6 range, that's too much for me. You can even do it "negatively" - if you want that...

BUT: My problem is that when I play passages where I play "normal" attack, there is NO effect to be heard at all, because ducking always COMPLETELY turns the mix of the effect to zero!! That doesn't sound good live: If you play quickly and decisively, the signal is absolutely dry without any ambience effects - the delay comes at the end of a note. I just can't find a way to have at least some delay or reverb even with the "normal" attacks. A second delay with negative ducking doesn't work either, as the two then overlap in the "middle" and there is mud.

Morphing is only possible with a pedal: If there were touch-sensitive morphing, it would be the universal weapon - but it doesn't exist.

Maybe someone else has an idea, or I missed something??

(Oh yes - and in case it comes up now: This is an old topic - I've already searched in the forum but haven't found anything about it.)

Gruß,

Axel

I'm pretty sure they only give out Master status to really incredible people. 😄

As before, the only sensible option is to have Kemper examine the hardware and fix it. You only need to find another Kemper on the planet to determine if what you're hearing is a flaw or an external influence like the guitar. Until you do that you're going to chase your tail like before I think. 🙂

A compressor will enhance any noise, since they make quiet parts of the signal louder, so make sure it's not just that. The same thing happens with a compressor in front of a tube amp.

What settings are you using on the compressor?

Quote from chaijens

I am in my recording studio where I play through my studio monitors. I will not use headphones just to hear the Kemper neither do I want to hook up the studio monitors to the Kemper as they are hooked up to a monitor controller.

As mentionned in my initial post, software monitoring is activated in Logic as it is the only way to hear the Kemper at this point.

But when doing so when opening Rig Manager, the signal distorts and crackles which makes editing in Rig Manager impossible.

So I guess the USB option and the way it is designed is not for me then.

Too many (for me) unconvenient changes necessary.

Never had any similar issues before when I was using SPDIF/Coax connection with the Kemper. Will therefore go back to SPDIF and add the additional cabling.

Yes, I would definitely say you need a dedicated audio interface in a studio unless you only record electric guitars with magnetic pickups. A guitar processor interface will always have limited use, which is why I think they resisted building one for a while.

You might want to record a professional mic at some point.

Thanks so much for the sampler! I'm really interested in the Shiva 6I6 as I've only played the EL34 version. Clips I've heard put it more in the Fender camp. More sparkly high end.

Hi - there are some specific brands/ models in this thread:

Thread

Kemper Remote Long Cable

Does anyone have any recommendations for Kemper Remote Cables? Im looking for something at least 50ft, also do I need to make any mods to the remote itself if I plan on using a cable that is at least 50ft long? Any of you have had any situations like it? Thanks!

I'm loving the Fender amp profiles from my favourite profiler with the corresponding LP. So much more like the amps!

Quote from GCNC8068

apologies if this has been asked/answered already ... tried searching but didn't find a clear answer. For OS 10 and Liquid Profiles, is there much benefit to be had from adding the specific Liquid Profile Amp Model to an existing commercial, non-LP profile if you don't know the G/T/M/B settings of the original profile?

In my first play with it last night I had really good results applying a Twin Reverb LP to a copy of my main Bogner Shiva clean profile and it really sounded great to me. The treble control is different to the Shiva, but still great.

Installing...

Since this is a compressor thread now...😀

For me it just comes down to the ears and this one sounds the best to me.

Yes! Thanks to all that helped refine things. I'll hopefully get stuck in on the weekend. 😎

I've got the 190-245 V Power Head since we're 240V here, so I wouldn't be able to just take mine to the US without some sort of transformer I think.

... and put the pick away. 😄
