===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).

~~Notes:~~

=== 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.

# This approach ensures that both the Trio+ and the KPP get a clean guitar signal

## When playing along Trio+ backing tracks you will hear the guitar signal processed by the KPP

## When playing along Trio+ backing tracks, you will hear the guitar signal processed by the KPP

## When using the Trio+ Looper the guitar signal that gets looped will include all KPP processing

## When using the Trio+ Looper, the guitar signal that gets looped will include all KPP processing

## The Mixer Output mix will add cabinet emulation to the guitar signal. ~~Turn off~~ the ~~Cabinet in~~ the KPP ~~if you don't like the sound~~. ~~I haven't found a way~~ to ~~disable~~ the cabinet emulation in the Trio+.

=== Step by Step ===

#Plug your guitar into the Trio+

#Use a patch cable to connect Kemper Profiler Player Monitor Out (set to Master Mono) to Trio+ FX RETURN.

#Adjust output and return levels for clean, balanced sound.

===Notes ===

# 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. <br>

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

# Another approach to overcome the Trio+ cabinet emulation is to use two channels on the mixer.

#* Trio+ Mixer Out
