This was v3.5 firmware and since this video was made v4 has been released which appears to add many new features that may offer better solutions for the kemper.
i am not affiliated nor endorsed by this product or its makers but thought other Kemper players might be interested to see it in action and be aware of the capabilities of the device.
Captain STD is a crazy name
...but not as strange as the "Mvave Chocolate" midi control pedal. Who on earth comes up with these names?😁
Excellent.
Was the firmware update process quick/easy? The documentation looks convoluted and there are plenty of people who claim it "bricked/broke" the hardware (completely now useless piece of junk). Can you offer any thoughts on this?
All i can report is that i followed the guide given and it updated ok. Took around 10 minutes (and ive updated twice so far) Its a case of deleting most (not all- we're told to keep the "license" folder intact) of the files on the device and pasting in the new ones, simply a drag-n-drop task as the device appears as an attached external drive.
As suggested, make a back-up of the files that come with the device before you do anything else. I used windows 10 so cant comment on the mac.
I haven't done any updating, so can't comment from that point of view. But I did find a document on the PaintAudio website called "MIDI_Captain_Serials_Recovery" which is purportedly info for recovery of a bricked unit. I haven't used the document, so I can't say how effective it is or isn't.
Would Kemper’s own controller work?
Not to my knowledge. The Kemper remote uses an ethernet connection which the player does not have. A standard midi controller would be the option with the addition of a USB-to-MIDI adapter, like this: ua-cam.com/video/BVFuOkYalKA/v-deo.htmlsi=r8vKutExvhm70eRj&t=303
