Yup, it’s a great amp. They approached the digital amp paradigm slightly different then Line6 by using real Celestion speakers (the speaker emulated output is not that great to be honest) so they could concentrate on the pure amp part.
I also liked the decision to not focus on emulating specific amp models, instead do great clean/crunch/drive/lead models in two variations (English/American?). And the motorised controls are sick!
I’d put some profiles on the RE years ago and the amp is now stored away since it’s impossible to sell it and way to good for throwing away...

As mentioned before in this thread, the new RM will manage FX and CAB presets too.

Are you plugging your headphones into the Kemper or are you going through your audio interface?

Welcome Christopher!

Superior Drummer 3 is amazing...
Logics Drummer is actually divided in two parts, The Drummer: the AI part that creates the grooves and the Drumkit Designer: that is the "drum kit" similar to EZ-drummer, but with less options.
What many people don't know is that you can just replace the Drumkit Designer with basically any other drum plugin that follows the GM standard within the Drummer track. Superior Drummer 3 even has a mapping preset for Logics Drummer.

Strange. You looked at MOTU, right Janne? Mark of the Unicorn goes back to the early '80s in its association with Apple, and Digital Performer was Mac-only from 1983/4 -> just a few years ago.
Yes I did and MOTU was definatly one of the contenders but price wise here in Europe Focusrite gave more bang for the buck... The other serious contender were RME, but at that time they were basically 100% Windows focused and did all Mac drivers as a second thought. Brilliant hardware but there were a lot of issues were people had to wait for updates... (and expensive also)
This have changed these days and now we also have UA and Apogee as great choices!
I still think Focusrite has the better price/value ratio AND a great Mac support.

QuoteWhat are your experiences with Focusrite + Mac OS X - I hear Focuswrite also has issues updating their drivers. Don't want same issue as with M-Audio again.
I don't know were you've heard that?
I know where you are coming from, after a really bad stint with M-Audio having drivers that never worked for years. Then Tascam with an interface that got abandoned since they didn't really do their software in-house...
I spent a lot of time researching what manufacturers really do support and use Macs themselves... and Focusrite came out on top, and this is 10 years ago!
Bought their (then) new Saffire Pro 40 and have never had any problems using it at all! No driver issues at all! Sill using it on my brand new Mac using the FW400 -> FW800 cable -> Thunderbolt 2 adapter -> Thunderbolt 3 adapter... And it works like a charm!
If this should break I would gladly buy a Focusrite interface again!

I just got the new i9 based 27" iMac to replace my old MacPro from 2008.
Amazing machine!!!
10x times faster, totally silent and an amazing screen!
It's great to see Apple deliver a real Pro class machine, but don't expect to afford it if you're not that Pro...

Well I have to chime in here too.
I have never before had any problem what so ever updating my KPA from RM.
But today I had the exact same issue as Reufus described. After several restarts of both RM and my KPA the update succeeded.
I updated from the previous official release, using the latest RM version. This on a Mac, OS 10.14.5.
-
What speaker are you playing through?
-
Any sound demo or test profile available?
-
What has been reported is that when the KPA is connected by USB to a computer that goes into sleep mode. Some computers shuts down the USB bus and that might crash the KPA

Sir PT is on V7 - Seeking to recreate the sound of a CAA/Suhr PT100. 80's in a box. Enough said. Superb amp.
Ahh.... just updated to the V8 release and got to try the V7 profiles and wow! The PT100 with that Mesa cab were right up my alley!
Thanks Tim!

Have You experimented with Logics Delay Designer, Reverb Designer & CromaVerb?
There is also a "Pedalboard" plugin that enables you to build a flexible board of modeled guitar FX.
... and there there is a huge amount of older/simpler delay and reverb plugins too...

This sounds interesting!
I have had a hard time to find IRs that sound as 'natural' as the better Kemper Cabs I have.
Not that all sounds bad but I've found that compared with the better profiles I have the IR-based cabs seems 'a bit less'. It's hard to pinpoint what it is but it's like they don't gel with the amp part in the same way...
You are doing some amazing service to this community Bommel, we are so grateful that you are share your findings with us!

This! The name of the CAB preset is not based on the name of the .kipr file. The name are stored within the file.

I've been using a Focusrite Saffire Pro40 for many years and have had no issues what so ever. If it would break down I would buy Focusrite again.

Been recording on the new Beta without any issues... (Mac/Focusrite/Logic)
