For blues, with P-90’s. I found if I turn down the gain and bass, on TAF’s 72 Marshall 50 watt
with Tim, it’s one of the best clean sounds. Just dial your guitar back to around 6 - 8 vol. and bring it up for solos.
No harsh highs and excellent mids, but remember to turn the bass down.
I now have “ Pure Cab.” ON. It’s taken out some of the harshness.
Monitor cabinet remains off.
I also lowered the br. PU, which helped.
My Strat and Tele sound good thru this V Type, so it seems to
be a matter of getting these new Phat Cats dialed in.
It’s now about an 80% improvement.
It’s in an open back Hammond organ satellite cabinet, and sounds shrill and harsh on a lot of profiles. Especially with
Seymour Duncan Phat Cats.
Everything sounds great thru my AKG headphones.
I don’t like mine w the DXR10 or my JBL studio monitors. Could be we have the same shit ears or
maybe we prefer guitar cab’s. In the “bedroom “ I use AKG studio phones with excellent results and live I go thru a 1 x 12 open back cab w a Celestion.
Others will tell you what works for them.
Have you tried the TAF pack ? It will depend on what speaker you’re playing thru and whether you want lots of bass, full sound of a closed back or open back.
Why is it also now in the new reverbs ? I’ve been putting it in the reverb slot for
headphone practice and it sounds great....but what is the reasoning for having
it in the output section and also now the reverb fx. ?
I decided to start this new thread for headphone users, but I’m sure there are other uses.
Adding Space to the Reverb effects has really improved headphone use hasn’t it .
For h.p. practice now I have Space in the reverb slot for all my favourites.
I now usually put a Spring Reverb in one of the pre amp slots now, or in the X slot.
I find this really beefs everything up and sounds more like practicing live in a small room.
For the OP...re headphones.
I’ve found that using a small high quality mixer has really improved my headphones sound.
I plug my computer into a Focusrite interface , then out to the mixer.
The Kemper goes directly into the mixer.
Headphones, obviously go into the mixer.
Am I imagining that these verbs, particularly natural, improve the sound of some profiles?
I tried it w a couple M Britt Marshall’s and I usually don’t like verb w Marshall , but it seems
to enrich the sound...no harshness...
Thanks so much Kemper team.
It’s really slow to activate.
Just wait for it to prompt..
It will eventually present a screen asking if you want to update.
IT’S GREAT !
Seems risky...maybe I’ll wait for NAMM, or for a more official announcement.
I’ve been waiting a yr. a few more days won’t hurt...
Sounds like it’s really going to be a large improvement though.
Kemper team never ceases to amaze.
The gift that keeps on giving.
Thank you K
I have jbl studio monitors, a dxr 10 and a small open back 1 x 12” cab with a Celestion.
The Celestion is by far my favourite. But it depends on what style/ sound you’re after.
Most of the time I use Akg phones.
Fender tweeds are my favourite amp, just so you know what sound I like.
That’s what I think too. Closer to Xmas would crank up sales.
Meanwhile I’m very happy w the spring reverb and as far as stomps go
there are so many on the market, I’m fine using my favourite ones in front...
Thanks, I hope I’m able to download it w.o. email...
Matching tone stacks would be the ultimate feature .
Imaging only needing one profile for an amp.
Has Mr. K ever commented on it ?
<p>
It seems that if the profile has quite a bit of gain, the rev’b works better in the x slot.
Last nite I noticed another page, with ducking parameter...a leetle bit goes a long way, but can be very useful.
The mix default of 40, seems a bit over the top, most of the time.
Most profiles are more natural around 10 %.
I’ve noticed that the new spring verb may affect the gain / volume of certain profiles.
I.e. Carol Ann.
