There were one or two rare problems in the early days, probably down to corrupted profiles. These problems were taken and magnified many times by the users of other modellers who apparently felt the need to do so. Recent firmware seems to have ironed out whatever minor niggles there were.
Ive done about 40+ gigs since January. No problems with it whatsoever.
Im using the monitor out through a power amp (matrix) and cab.
In my 'originals' band I use 3 DI profiles, just like a really good multichannel amp.
In my covers band I use the monitor out with cabs switched off using regular profiles. It gives a little of the profiled

Im a big fan of the evh amp (I own one) and these profiles are just great.
Thanks very much for them. -
Very little of the profile itself per se. There are so many excellent profiles I usually start with one I like, then add some fx and a drive block to switch on/off with a behringer foot controller. I then save a 'louder' version for lead breaks, and a 'cleaner' version (with drive turned down and different fx) for clean, as I dont like a pristine clean sound. Works to me like the perfect multi channel amp, and of course I can easily change amps as I please.
My band plays out with a sound engineer who doesnt appreciate too many different tones to cope with. He just loves the Kemper. -
Funnily enough I just stumbled on this one last night. Its a great time saver when setting up gig presets.

[quote='ckemper',index.php?page=Thread&postID=44447#post44447]Some comments:
_ you can't store a DI profile into an amp location, there is always a cab attached then when you want to add a cab it sounds not as great as with your preamp + KPA's cab
Try loading a DI profile, then 'lock' the cab. Now all presets you load will automatically load the 'DI(blank)' cab.

Wow, thats really cool. Ive got a GT1000fx and its awesome. This would be a perfect match.

You just need to look at Cliffs track record over the last year and a half dissing the KPA at just about every opportunity to draw your own conclusions from this bs......

Ive used both a Kemper and an axefx2 through a Matrix GT1000fx and a 4x12 evh cab. IMHO The Kemper always sounds more full, bright and lively compared to a compressed 'blanket over the speakers' sound of the axefx2. In my experience the side by side comparison is quite dramatic in this type of set up.The Kemper also responds much more realistically to the type of guitar and how you play it.
I always felt the axefx (both the current and previous versions) were unnaturally very forgiving and flattered your playing at the expense of losing personality and feel.
As a stop gap for live use the behringer fcb1010 (with uno chip) works very well as an inexpensive foot controller for live use. -
Yep, I use it all the time. The lights on either side of the power on switch are very handy too.

If you're a Kemper fan and you start Kemper threads at the Gear Page, as time goes by you will get insulted, belittled, and eventually slaughtered.
Good luck.
+1, While all the time you will be told that it is an 'unbiased' forum.

The friedman marshalls were the only models I liked on the axefx2 so Im really keen to hear how well they profile.
-
Agree 100%.
KPA > matrix Gt1000FX > evh 4x12 (monitor out, no cab) , at the same time going through main outs to a QSC pa system. Just like a huge, awesome sounding 'surround sound' rig. -
1. Pitch shifter
2. Performance mode -
I had a (Fr)atomic 50 watt cab. Not loud enough as a standalone. Using just the power amp into a 4x12 was very nice.However, I personally prefer the matrix GT1000FX I now have in its place.

Larger please (for tap tempo on bottom row)

I had the same experience a few months back and had to sell my Kemper until things turned around. A real bummer for you, I hope things get sorted quickly and everything works out well for you.

Kemper to PA ?
5153 DI profiles with Greenback cab added to pa (A pair of QSC K12s). Monitor out (cab off) to Matrix amp and Marshall 4x12 for monitoring purposes. What you are hearing is probably a mixture of the pa and monitor sounds judging by where the camera is sited.

The title says it all. Please ignore the many bloopers (It IS live after all lol)

Im in the north east (Berwick) if thats not too far away.

Thanks lads, now were getting somewhere.
I am using the sysex file from McRalfix and have calibrated the pedals.
Volume pedal now works.
Wah pedal works but also seems to be acting as a volume pedal in reverse, cutting out the volume at the toe position.EDIT Forget that, got it working. Very nice wah indeed.
