Howdy from interior of British Columbia!

So like many I was looking for an alternative to lugging around an amp/cab and increase tonal versatility. I had electected to buy an Axe FX until I did further research. I chose the Kemper because of simplicity and positive feedback with regard to tone, which for me is paramount. My playing is not that great so every little bit helps! No seriously though, I am first and foremost a sound man that enjoys playing bass and some guitar and because of the dual purpose of the Kemper it seemed like a good direction to steer. My Powered lunchbox is yet to arrive so I am eagerly awaiting a phone call within a few days. In the mean time, it seems like a good idea to peruse the forum to glean some information about the amp so I can use it effectively. See y'all on the forum- nice to be here...

Thanks for the warm welcome! I have always enjoyed the company of other musicians, well... For the most part anyway I can hardly wait! Yes I have begun the tutorial process as well as the destructions! But as they say the proof is in the mix! I suppose I should start a thread asking how folks are finding the Kemper whilst using live? I have read some stuff on how to use it live but not on the experiences from players and sound persons perspective. All things in time. I look forward to showing up at rehearsal with it as no one knows I ordered one! Of course they have all heard of Kempers but no one has had the pleasure of using one yet so this will be fun. We Canadians are a bit behind in the technology game from the Europeans don't you know.

Nice! That's what I like to hear! I said that about some bass preamps before! Geez that sounded sweet! What were you plugged into? Sometimes an act will just throw a DI at me and say " there ya go ". Once in a while you get a real nice surprise. I still like to mic though
