What are the worst things or the things you hate about the Kemper?

Quote from lef38

Biggest complaints for me:
- i will have to shield my strat because now i can hear even the slightest details
- for the same reason, i will have to improve my technique
- loss of sleep since I receive it, can't stop playing

Other than that, I can use my old Pod HD - with the Kemper in the loop - to work around the things I miss:
- looper
- usb audio interface
- footswitch + expression pedal
- additional delays

Exactly same feeling here, from the loss of sleep to the use of my old Boss GT-10 for the same missing things!!!

Thats what im refferring to Im using a footswitch not midi and the footswitch will switch not work correctly in performance mode

The after sales service and support of the customers are the worst thing of the Kemper.

Its a good advice to not state subjective personal opinions like facts and there are a lot of kemper users who post that they are very happy with their service and support. You are upset because they have, just like they should, offered to repair your unit. You don't like that and want a new unit instead of repair. They are doing exactly what they and other companies should do by law.
You posted about it in this thread. USB port doesn't always work
There is a good point in what Guitartone wrote in post 11 in that thread -"If the tail light globe on your Porsche doesn't work should Porsche replace the entire car, or just replace the globe?"

Kemper support was always great for me.

They answered personal emails, provide advice or even special fixed firmware - and tried hard to reproduce the reported bugs and if they found them - fixed the bugs fast,

The variations within the actual amp profile. The initial process CAN BE to subjective because everyone's hearing is different. The ability to change the sound to your liking is great but less complexities to get the true amp profile would be great. Or a common methodolgy that everyone could follow to ensure accurate profile results.

I hate the absence of amp gas... was always fun to try out new amps... it's not necessary any longer with the KPA... but still - miss it

this! haha, finally one with the same opinion ... it cost me a fortune to buy those 12 amps i have bought over the years and a lot of time to test the other
50 amps (97% tube amps) at thomann's, musik markt and a bunch of other shops. now this gas is gone and i am sometimes a little bit sad ...
until i load the vanWeelden profile. a dream, a goddess of an amp worth 7000 euros, played for years by joe bonamassa and that is only one of my gems.
no, i hate nothing. on the contrary i still keep learning how to use the lunchbox and L.O.V.E. it more and more day by day.

cheers

The worst part for me is that my biceps have shrunk, and my core muscles are weak.

I thought not having to move and carry amps around the studio would be a good thing!

3. when using a simple footswitch to change rigs up/dn it doesnt work in performance mode it switches to the next rig stored in memory instead of the one in performace list . so I cant use performance mode ./quote]

To be Fair up /down does work as it should in performance mode for bank selecting
But they need to add the ability to step through slots with just a foot switch plugged in.

Let's add that to a feature request.

This feature is planned since performance mode was still beta.

... wikpaed!

When I hear about an interesting new amp, my first thought is always: "Its just a matter of time before it shows up on the Rig Exchange."

I already had THE Marshall for me, and I already had THE Fender for me before I got a Kemper. The profile of my Marshall sounds better at lower volume than the Marshall does, and if I was playing the Kemper at the volume level that I used to profile the Marshall, the sheer sonic onslaught would mask any subtle differences between the two sound sources.
