* Lock Vol. Pedal - this setting will lock the current volume pedal settings below to apply to all rigs* Wah Pedal to Vol. - this is a rig-level version of the See [[#MIDI Assignments and Settings|page 14 pedal linking option aboveKemper KPA External Control]]* Location - this refers to a volume pedal's placement in the signal chain. Since a dedicated volume pedal doesn't require an effect slot like wah wah or pitch (whammy), you use this parameter to set where it should affect the signal.* Range - this refers to whether the volume pedal should boost when moving from heel position to toe position (when set to right of center) or cut when moving from toe to heel position (when set left of center)

* Loop Lev. Adj. - you can adjust the volume level of the effects loop send here if your external gear requires alternate gain staging. This is constant across all rigs. Using the Mono Loop vs. Distortion Loop effects give you further flexibility over the send level of the loop. Mono Loop is a constant level, while Distortion Loop factors in the digital volume level of the KPA's virtual signal chain for the placement of the loop effect.
=== External Expression Pedal/Footswitch Setup /MIDI Settings ===Pages 5 - 10 cover how expression pedals or footswitches behave. Pedals 1 and 2 cover the two inputs on the back of the KPA, while Pedals 3 - 6 refer to inputs on the official Kemper remote. The Kemper also accepts MIDI CC messages to control its various parameters. In fact, the setup done here is simply mapping the pedal's anolog input to that appropriate MIDI CC # (1 for wah, 7 for volume, 4 for pitch, and 73 for monitor volume). If you only have one expression pedal, you can still use it to do both wah and volume with some See [[Kemper KPA External Control#Expression Pedals/Footswitches|additional setup]]. Pedal Type refers to the polarity of the expression pedal - type 1 is the normal type (Roland), while type 2 is reversed (Yamaha). This is also where you would come to calibrate a new pedal, or after updating your KPA's firmware/OS. You simply press the button then do a full sweep. === Remote Display ===Page 11 has some features similar to pages 1 dealing with the LCD display on the official Kemper remote. === MIDI Assignments and Settings ===While in Browser mode, page 12 allows you to assign the current rig to a MIDI Program Change number, as well as view all the MIDI assignments. Note, these are only for Browser mode, not performance mode, where more than MIDI bank of 128 rigs each can be assigned. While in Performance mode, page 13 allows assigning external devices to the MIDI Out and Thru ports, as well as giving them device names, and specifying which channels the Kemper should use to communicate with them. Page 14 has some settings for allowing an expression pedal that was set to Wah Wah on pages 5 - 10 or MIDI CC 1 to also control volume or pitch-shifting, when not being used for a wah wah effect. It also has settings for sending the KPA's MIDI clock to external devices and setting the MIDI global channel (omni by default). And you can also see the current MIDI CC values for 4 of the most likely used CC's, controlling modulation, pitch, volume, and monitor volume.
