I've never used an EQ on any Profile, not once.
Really? I've found so many profiles just dull without adding some high end to them, and others just plain boomy on the low end.

Make sure your "Clean Sense" and "Distortion Sense" are dialed-in to your guitar. Visit the cab controls section, where a good bit of difference can be made just by changing the cab eq.
+1 on the Clean and Distortion Sense controls. These can make a big difference in your tone. I personally don't fool with cab eq, as I find that too dramatic. I stick with eq in the stomps and effects sections, and adjust the overall stack eq as the final adjustment. I'm sure the next guy will have a totally different approach though ...
I find the crunch tones to be the most difficult to tame as well. However, I will say that I've had much better luck using single coils (my strat) for those. In general, everything but the most beastly overdrive seems to sound better to my ears with my strat when using the KPA. It just loves single coils!
I don't know if this meets your requirements, but it looks like a very good deal:
Bill,
Given your level of musicianship, you should have a LOT of EVERYONE'S gear.....as any manufacturer that has a clue, should be falling all over themselves to get you to endorse their products!
In fact, that you only have "Trainee" status is mind boggling. As a fellow "Trainee", I feel so unworthy.
These status monikers are based strictly on number of posts, so they are meaningless for anything else. Bill is a master of sound and an outstanding musician.
Outstanding work!!!

Where else do you get this kind of attention from the top guy! CK sets the standard in more than one way
Display MoreWow thanks for the great response peeps.
I haven't had that long to play with it, but I've updated my kemper to the latest firmware, got a few cabs off of the net and installed these via USB and recorded a song with pretty much stock settings.
I play in lots of different styles but something I've never really done is ambient music, I got so inspired by some of the tones in the Kemper that I had to push the record button, namely "Tabla Delay", "Surf's Up", "CK Rotary Speaker" & "Use Your V. Knob"...
Superb for amp profiling, but also great for those weird effects too. I have many a nice valve amp (some of which I will try putting up) but the effects are just great outta this thing and a hell of a lot more portable than my current 'gig rig pro 14' rig with rare pedals and flightcase.
Here's a link to the song I got inspired to record http://soundcloud.com/chrisoleary/kemper-test-dance-domino
Enjoy

Hey, regarding your new poll - there are some of us who didn't own a modeler at the time we bought our KPA ...
Welcome aboard, Yossi!
Makes many men wonder what other hidden treasures lie buried in the KPA?
What about: Store >>> Save as >>> Rigname 1 and switch back and forth from the original one? This is how I do it........
Agreed, and that's just a couple of button pushes - not difficult or time consuming.
Hey Resonator, enable PMs in your profile.
My sales rep doesn't tell me what to buy, and has always provided good service on any issues I've encountered.
PM me with your email address and I'll have my rep get in touch with you - Andrew Stryffeler.
Wow, outstanding videos! I have so many rigs already that I've been staying away from these - now I'm afraid I might have to grab them all !!!
