your guitar. When set to the appropriate position, you will notice that noise and hum are eliminated, even when the
strings are still sounding. There is no need for an additional release control as found in classic noise gate.
Like “Clean Sense”, the Noise Gate setting is part of the Input Section and is stored with the Rig. It is also stored as
part of any input preset. When the Input Section is locked, the noise gate is locked as well. In Browser Mode the
Input Section is locked by default. In Performance Mode it is not locked by default.
For metal sounds, we recommend adding one of the special noise gate effects, which are explained in the Noise
Gate chapter.
In PROFILER Mode, the Noise Gate will also work with the connected amplifier, but without influencing the resulting
PROFILE.
✓ A tutorial video about the Input Noise Gate can be found on: www.kemper-amps.com/video
The parameters Input Source and Reamp Sense are global and are explained in the Instrument Input and Reamping
chapter.
INPUT LED (3)
The LED reflects the level of the input signal. Its base color can be changed from green to blue with the option Signal
LEDs Blue in System Settings.
Module and Section Buttons (4)
These buttons are associated with the modules and section of the signal chain as described in the chapter Rigs and
Signal Chain before. A short press will switch the associated module or section on and off. Press longer to open the
