I'm not agree i think both are really great and originals !!

I love this design a lot more than traditional rack.

Only for info: the design is exactly the same and the color scheme is the same as the Virus synth.

I bought synths when i was young, spend tons of money with it and after having build a lot of zzzzzzzzzzoingggg boingggggggg i decided that it was a waste of money. I don't want to hear anymore someone talk to me about synths. lol
(don't offer me a synth it will go to the garbage)

By the way i don't think that it creates a synergy with the Virus.
Most of guitarists don't care/like synths.

So for me it's an error. I don't want to get a synth at all.

You are right they should stop the production. ;)
The black version is already done.


C'mon dude, u know what I mean, right? :)
For me its frustrating that Kemper is (imho) wasting time for designing a black unit while the software is still not stable enough for live use.
Why do you find it not stable enough for live use? Had around 6 rehearses with it and not one single crash or any issue....the few problems that are left only occur when you tweak deeply. Crashes at home do not spoil your gigs.
OK, the perform-mode is something that I'd like to see too and I'd like to know what it is basically but that's just an improvement and nothing that I really need.


Mine crashes quite often and unpredictably with my MFC101 midi controller, I had to switch rigs manually at rehearsal and 45 seconds seem like 45 minutes when you're supposed to be playing a solo in the middle of a song . I realise that this doesn't affect all users but Kemper confirmed that other MFC users are experiencing the same issues. The fact fact that a midi controller can crash a device in the first place makes the mind boggle but that's another story :)
I havent tried my MFC, actually liking the downside to midimate mode I am in now. The all-access was fine too. But just as big as the MFC. I really dont need to volume pedal, but I should try to MFC. The only killer on the midimate is the pedal set to send a 0. KPA does NOT agree with sending it big ugly zeroes for a PC.

I'd actually like a black one-because I have two of the white ones now-and struggle keeping them straight. Though nothing a big ugly sticker can't fix! I could see a more stealth mode color for stage. Not that those lights are terrible mellow. My drummer loves the lights.

What about getting a beer? :D

Was just telling that is kind of a tradition for Kemper and not time wasted in devt.

Edit: BTW, first modeler? Made by synth people (Line 6 and Roland). First profiler ? Again synth people..... Not a bad track record.... :thumbup:

Hmmm, looks like the version with the built in poweramp. :D

Perhaps the poweramp ships with the backplate, so it just screws in. :whistling:

I guess there's a reason it's called the Kemper Amp.

Hmmm... looks like their (rumored) plans for a backmountable poweramp changed...
What do you mean, that's exactly what this looks like....the poweramp is sitting inside the "hole" just as promised.
The new backplate makes it a "do it yourself" job...seems like a brilliant idea to me.

I wonder what happens if you remove the two little black plastic covers inside the existing hole...do you think there are 'connectors' there?

Of course, we're speculating, guessing, we know nothing. :D
