I love the sound of my Kemper through headphones, but I haven't found a FRFR solution that worked for me. Therefore I use a real cab.

You have some great amps and I think you should try to profile your own amps. There are some youtube vids from Guido Bungenstock where you can learn how to make good profiles.

I had the same problem. I also tried to repair, reboot. That didn't help. Uninstalling and reinstalling Rig Manager solved the problem for me. When you uninstall rig manager, you get the option to keep your preferences and files. So nothing got lost.

Maybe a Fender acoustasonic player telecaster

I also would like to buy a lunchbox amp head in 2022. I am looking at the Engle Ironball and the Engl Fireball as well as the Marshall studio classics and the EVH lunchboxes. It will be a difficult decision to choose the right one

Maybe this site can help you:

Same here. I imported the Ownhammer cabs by dragging them to Rig manager. To check if it makes a difference, I also imported them via USB. Same result: The names in the profiler are fine, but the names in rig manager are incomplete.

Here another song from Dino. He and George Lynch released a fantastic album:

Besides the universal Ox Box there are also the Two Notes Captor X and the Boss Waza Tube amp expander. They can also act as a load box and you can record DI with them. I never played one, but I am interested because I still have a Koch tube amp that I like.

Our band has tried to rehearse with Jamkazam for the first time yesterday. It was not very satisfying. All members had various problems. At the end of the evening, our bassplayer and me (both with focusrite audio interfaces, a 2i2 3rd gen and a 6i8 3rd gen) were able to jam together. And we had a good sound without latency. Our singer (with a Steinberg interface) had problems because she heard a lot of cracks. And we only heard her singing in the left channel. Our other guitar player used his line6 Helix as an audio interface, but couldn't even get to play in our session. He was greyed out and the message we got was ´no audio from John'.

We are going to try and fix the issues this week because, when it works Jamakazam is a really nice tool to rehearse in these times. I think it is a lot busier than normal on the Jamkazam servers so that also might be a reason we are encountering problems. Beside the fact that our singer and our other guitar player are no whizz kids

Quote from guitarguy316

Alright I see a lot of questions about using the Kabinet for high gain. I have been using m50x exclusively since I got my toaster for a few months. I got my kab last week. I’m a rock/hard rock/metal/whatever core name it type guy. Naturally most profiles I have and use are v30 based.

Now maybe the profiles (granted they’re paid packs from the popular high gain makers) are the issue but I’m kinda underwhelmed coming from a 5153 head + 2x12.

Basically on headphones the profiles sound great and lots of nice liquid beefy gain. On the kabinet using a DI profile with v30 imprint it just feels kinda thin and hollow, and like some of the gain and liquid ness is lost. I played with directivity a little bit but not sure where to go from there. I’m not missing any settings as far as I can tell.

And yes I did add a “fake” cab to the DI profiles so that imprint mode will work even though it over rides them. Some of the non DI profiles sound good in frfr mode but not the cab in the room feeling.

Maybe I need to get a real cab and plug kemper into that to compare.

Thoughts? I’m not ready to give up on it yet but maybe was expecting more. For cleans and low to medium gain it sounds pretty good.

I am also a rock/hard rock player and I have the same experience. I have returned the cab. Compared to my Palmer 1x12 cab with a Celestion Creamback or with my Friedman ASM12, the Kemper cab sounded thin and harsh at higher volumes (monitor out at -30db). At bedroom level it sounded good. I have read the manual (7.2) and I am sure I did everything right. I use mainly MBritt profiles.

+1 for the Sennheiser HD25! After years of use, my Sennheiser HD400 (which i boughts back in the 80's) died. After reading a lot on this forum, I bought the BeyerDynamic DT880 two weeks ago. It is not a bad headphone, but I wasn't completely happy with the sound either. So after reading this thread, I decided to buy the Sennheiser HD25. And I am very happy I did. The guitar sound is a lot bigger and more fun to play. The BeyerDynamic goes back.

Thanks for the discount Michael ! I finally bought the BoC pack. Should have done that a long time ago There are a lot of great profiles I like in this pack: Bogner Goldfinger, Soldano, Matchless, TKO all sound very very good!

Clip 2: Kemper

When are we going to get the answer?

I bought a Gibson Les Paul in 2015 and never played and liked it much because it would always go slightly out tune real fast. Yesterday, I installed a string butler V3 on it and it really solved the tuning problems on my Les Paul! Only negative thing about it is the name. Googling it was hell

There is a Friedman profile in Michaels Britt's free pack that you can find on the Kemper website

I really like the Friedman pack Bert Meulendijks released a couple of weeks ago. And I also think Michael Britt's Friedman Brown Eye profiles are fantastic.

There are some good acoustic profiles on the rig exchange made by Dorrus. And Bert Meulendijks has a good acoustic pack for sale.

Ik play in a rock cover band and in an acoustic duo. For acoustic I also use the Kemper. Sounds really great with the profiles mentioned.

Try raising the tailpiece. When you do that, the angle of the string on the bridge will be less and that could prevent string breakage.

4.2.0.12488 has been release and the release notes contains this:
- changed: If WahPedal >Volume is activated, pedal volume is maintained during Rig changes and doesn’t require to be picked up at toe position after Rig change any more.

I just installed the update and it works just perfect.
Thank you Mr. ckemper!
