Description
Extends PaintAudio's firmware 3.5 for the Kemper Profiler Player. Three views: stomp/effect (rig name, four slots with Kemper colours), performance (five rigs per bank, morphing) and tuner. At boot, holding a switch picks USB disk mode, the PaintAudio firmware, a MIDI request mode or bidirectional communication with the Kemper, where LED colour and brightness follow effect type and state. Its hardware reverse-engineering work is credited as the basis of PySwitch.
Install notes
