In search of a "Chimey" AC-15/30 Rig

rdamato · Feb 8th 2015

Hi All:

I played another gig last night with my KPA and am more enamored of the technology than ever before. That said, I'm still in search of a Voxy profile to use when covering Tom Petty and such. Something chimey and airy with little compression. I'm a big supporter and user of TAF profilers, but all seem a bit too "overdriven" for this particular need. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

BTW, my tube snob lead guitarist has finally decided that for our cover band needs, nothing can cover as much sonic territory as the KPA. Great product!!!

Enjoy your Sunday, we're waiting for more snow!!

Well, try the Morgan AC20, and dial in some amp compression additionally.
Sonic bliss and all the chime you'll ever want.

lots of beautiful choices in the M Britt packs 1 and 2

%13 ERT 33 and VOX AC 30 with and w/out bright switch engaged, some other Morgan's, %13's and Matchless's come close as well

$8 and you will literally have an AC30 in your Kemper.

I am an AC30 / AC30-related tone nut .... owned heaps of AC30's over the years ... all sounded great .... recelntly been using a DC30 Ceriatone clone [ souped-up AC30 ] ...... this sounds at least as good, but honeslty better ..... not because its a Kemper profile but because it is an awesome AC30 amp -and- he has profiled it PERFECTLY.

They will take you no more than a minute or so to customize to taste.

For $8 your AC15 / AC30 chime + grind search will be over

The AC30 sound is pretty much the reason I bought the Kemper. Had a CC2 in my studio and was enthralled by it but couldn't really see myself carrying it around due to the weight.
Thanks for the links everyone, I'm all in to try some of these.
If you are looking for an acoustic guitar tone to compliment the AC tone, I found the (amp sim 2) on the rig exchange to be worthy. Neck pickup single coil!

The Morgan AC 20 is just incredible. Also Im pretty sure Andy at Amp Factory sells the CC2 as an individual buy. Someone correct me if Im wrong.

Where doth one find this Morgan profile?

paults · Feb 11th 2015

You can find it in Kemper's Rig Exchange, or in the Rig Manager.
