PEDALS, PROGRAM CHANGES AND MIDI 57
Note: the Profiling Amplifier expects so-called “momentary” switches. These close the contact when you
step on them, and open it again when you lift your foot o. Channel switches for tube amps are not com-
patible with the KPA, as they use a latching mechanism instead.
Double Switches
The “Double Switch” selection is special: it can take a double or stereo switch from a single jack, so the
other jack is still free to use an expression pedal, or even another stereo switch.
In BROWSE MODE, the default assignment for “Double Switch” is Rig Up/Down. In Profiler Mode, it switch-
es from Kemper Amp to Reference Amp, and in the Store Menu, it will navigate the cursor to the left or
right. Alternatively, you can create your own “Double Switch” set-up by assigning any combination of the
available functions with the Soft Knobs.
Operation of a MIDI remote pedal
The Kemper Profiling Amplifier connects easily to MIDI remote pedals from any manufacturer. Simply con-
nect your MIDI pedal to the MIDI IN jack of the KPA. There are three groups of MIDI messages that the KPA
can receive:
Program Change
You can assign up to 128 program change numbers to your Rigs. The assignment is done in the SYSTEM
Menu/Program # Assign.
