KPP with Trio+.jpg


Overview

You will need

  • Four standard 1/4 inch (6.3mm) Tip-Sleeve instrument cables
    • Two for connecting to/from Trio+ and KPP
    • One for guitar to Trio+
    • One for Trio+ to Mixer or PA
  • Your guitar, Kemper Profiler Player, and Digitech Trio+

Connections

The Kemper Profiler Player (KPP) connections to Digitech Trio+ (Trio+)

  • Trio+ FX SEND (Trio+ top left) goes to KPP Input
  • KPP Monitor Out (with KPP Output Monitor Source set to Master Mono) goes to Trio+ FX RETURN (Trio+ top right). It doesn't matter which KPP output you connect to (Left or Right).

Concepts

This setup lets the Trio+ generate its backing track from your clean guitar and apply the full Kemper sound to what you hear and record.

  1. This approach ensures that both the Trio+ and the KPP get a clean guitar signal
    1. When playing along Trio+ backing tracks, you will hear the guitar signal processed by the KPP
    2. When using the Trio+ Looper, the guitar signal that gets looped will include all KPP processing

Step by Step

  1. Plug your guitar into the Trio+
  2. Use a patch cable to connect Trio+ FX SEND to Kemper Profiler Player Input.
  3. Use a patch cable to connect Kemper Profiler Player Monitor Out (set to Master Mono) to Trio+ FX RETURN.
  4. Connect the Trio+ Mixer Out to your mixer or PA, OR connect your headphones to the Trio+ headphone output
  5. Adjust output and return levels for clean, balanced sound.


Notes

  1. The Mixer Output mix Trio+ Mixer Output) will add cabinet emulation to the guitar signal. If the resulting sound is too “cab sim heavy,” disable the KPP cab module.

In Rig Manager, Output section, set Monitor source to Master Mono

  1. Another approach to overcome the Trio+ cabinet emulation is to use two channels on the mixer.
    • Trio+ Mixer Out
    • Trio+ Amp Out (this does not include Trio+ cabinet emulation)
