Really nice pack. Thanks!

I know a lot of great packs, but they are mainly for atheists IMO.

Yeah, thanks Matej!

That Zakk Wylde Overdrive with the bassman was a great combo indeed. One of these is my all-time favorite edge of breakup profile.

Yeah me too! I have combined it with nice cabs and it sounds spectacular. Thanks for sharing.

That Lynx card is great.
RME has a cheaper one that I use and love. It is called HDSP 9632.

There is obviously some filtering trickery going on around the guitar input of the KPA. CK mentioned back around 2012 that he is working on tweaking the high-pass filtering of the inputs in order to reduce relatively bad digital artifacts/aliasing of the early firmwares. These artifacts had been reduced during the years, but it is highly likely that the workaround filtering tricks resulted in a slight bass response mismatch between the profiles and the source material. Remember the low frequency correction switch that was introduced a few years back? This is now gone and ON by default. I think it tries to correct the cut low-end of the profiles. Maybe this correction method can be revised a little bit further in order to get better bass response? Or maybe a new KPA is on the horizon with better A/D D/A converters that require less filtering tricks? Only CK knows. In the meantime the base line is that while the KPA might sound a little different from certain profiled amps, it is still a really good tool and above the rest of the competition.

My favorite clean tone is my own Cornell Romany 10W on the Rig Exchange.

Is it possible that this low-cut filter is implemented in order to reduce aliasing? Just a random thought.
You should try a very old firmware that still had significant amount of aliasing. Maybe the low end response there is flatter.

I usually just wait a little Humans like us are really very bad at objectively evaluating sounds. I usually keep profiles that I like... lets say 4 times out of 5 tries.

Instant favorites. Thanks very much for sharing.

Slate plugins are really good.
Previously I was under the impression that they are all about user interface aesthetics... but it turns out that they are some of the best plugins I have ever used. I really dig their low latency as well, so I'm able to jam alog with several of their plugins activated. Cool stuff.

Really nice profiles, thank you!

Thanks Jen! This profile earned a place on my KPA Great tones.

Have you tried DB's DrZ Rt66 profiles on the Rig Exchange?
They are really good. I especially like the profiles made with the Audix i5 microphone.

The NewYorker profile is fantastic (also try enabling the compressor and the stomp), really versatile.
The AD30 is also worth checking out.

Sounds great!
Maybe try to rename the profile, and upload it that way. I'm not sure RM can handle profiles with identical names.

Thanks for sharing man! What a wonderful Marshall sound.
It's on the Rig Exchange, check it out!

I agree, it is a very bad implementation.
I have voiced my thoughts during closed beta, so they are aware of the concerns and possible fixes.
