Hi Dave, 

I'm new to both the Kemper and FCB/EurekaPROM, but was able to get it set up and rolling pretty easily. Using Preset mode btw. 

I am, however, having issues with the volume pedal - It seems like the range only goes from halfway (nothing) to all the way toe down (full volume). Yet, I do for the most part get tuner access when it's all the way heel down... I calibrated the pedals on the FCB and noticed no change after that. Is there something in the Kemper that's bottlenecking me or giving this offset? 

Also, I've had a couple instances where I step on say preset 2 button, but accidentally hit preset 3 button with my boot. The Kemper will sometimes be randomly found on performance 25 or 26 when I was using performance 2 the whole night. Am I doing something with the Eureka by pressing more than 1 button in preset mode? 

Thanks for your help!
Ryan

Ryan,

During calibration of the EurekaPROM-enabled FCB1010 (http://www.eurekasound.com/eurekaprom/setup#TOC-Expression-Pedal-Calibration), what values on the 7-segment display do you see for the volume expression pedal? Does it appear that it's 0 for half of the pedal travel?

Kemper performances can be a little tricky if one is selected that isn't programmed into the Kemper - it'll go to a preset (vs performance) that is seemingly random. But as long as you're selecting pre-programmed performances, you shouldn't be seeing that behavior.

Cheers,
Dave
