That was definitely the feature I missed when I moved from the Eleven Rack to the Kemper, especially the tight integration with Pro Tools. Stoked for the update, and curious about exactly how it will be implemented!

Would love to see -

• Automatic delay compensation when re-amping (this may not even be an issue anymore, as it was with S/PDIF)

• MIDI integration, or at least the ability to use MIDI CC to control parameters over USB without extra cables and a MIDI interface

• The Eleven Rack had a way to "save" the rig being used on a particular track/clip automatically, which meant I never had to save, name, and manage rigs for a project manually. Pretty sweet. Not sure if this is possible with the KPA, though...since the 11R was tied to Pro Tools and made by Avid, I suspect they didn't make that tech available to other companies.

Automatic delay compensation in the kemper would require the kemper to break the time and space continuum.

I am not even kidding.

96khz is absolutely useless for a piece of equipment like the kemper. There is NO useable guitar info at the nyquist frequency (48khz).

Heck there’s very few times you’d even want to hear any guitar above 10khz let alone the nyquist for 44,1 (meaning 22khz) I have a high cut at 7khz on my kemper.

There is so much more those cpu cycles could be used for, than producing white noise for dogs.

Only tried an Axe a couple of times. It sounded good. I already owned a Kemper, and was happy with it, but if i hadn’t i might have bought an axe.

For me really both would clearly have satisfied my needs.

Admin, next time ChatGPT tries to become a member of the forum, could you block it, please!

Perhaps it’s Skynet becoming sentient….

Device p…..g contests is a quantum waste of space and energy..

Fantastic news for the whole of the Kemperverse. Not sure i personally am going to use any of it, as i am pretty set for what i use in sounds, but nonetheless it is a huge step forward that i wholeheartedly applaud. And on the same hardware even.

There are so many applications for two volume pedals in the kemper. I’ve requested it for years.

Just give us more slots both pre and post. I look at other platforms and seriously get jalous at what they can do with routings etc….

I didn’t mean 24 hour time itself is useless. I meant how time is implemented on the Remote is useless for ME. I’m 55, never ever used 24 hour time. So to now have to get used to it just for this one device is a no go.

Are you serious. For anyone but americans, we have to use am/pm for certain american stuff. But you can’t do it the other way? It’s not like you are asked to learn Chinese…

The Kemper is a German product, it uses the time convention that is the mostly used time convention in the world.

And ask I've said earlier, if you plan on touring/gigging to support the album, we would love to open

We’d love to tour, but unfortunately it is not economically viable for us. When we started 20 years ago, we were already “too old” for making that a carreer choice, and we were lucky enough to catch the trail end of the “cd era” and build a name as a studio group. Though we do gig occasionally. So now, where our avarage age is around 50, we all have dayjobs (and coverband gigs), house loans, families. And we are not big enough to tour as a headliner either, so we would have to pay “buy on fees”. Very common in the workd of metal. The support band basically pays a (not small) fee , thus financing part of the headliners tour.

So a month of touring would set me personally back at least 8000$. Lost income. Getting basic gear to the US from Denmark if we are talking a US tour. Visas. Buy on fees. Transportation, food hotels.

And then, in the era of physical sales, it might have been worth it. But in the streaming era, it wont move any significant amount of sales. Unfortunately.

This is quite possibly the best heavy metal tune I have ever heard.

Great vocals, super tight rhythm section and a melody I can actually hear in an arrangement that is both interesting and engaging.

Please let me know when the album drops.

Cheers,

Mats N

Thanks, that’s high praise.

The album drops june 2nd on all the usual services. The album is called Interference. There will be a limited cd run as well.

Quote from V8guitar

I keep looking for release 9...

Absolutely. The kpa already has so much of what i need. But still i’m anticipating v9.

Being philosophic: it could be argued that since i’ve gigged with it for so many years (8 i think) , it does actually already fullfill my needs. But ofcourse we all have our (often wildly different) “this feature would make it perfect” inklings.

Quote from Ingolf

Well, I'm not sure why you feel you have to de-validate my (different to your) experience?

This here is about exchange of experience after all.

And as if it matters: One of my main guitars is in constant use since 1989.

ahh you are right. I was being harsh.

Quote from Ingolf

Personally I can't confirm this. When I dial the amp compressor (the one in the amp menu) to about 3-4 the profile cleans up in a great way, oftentimes better than the original amp does.

Also crucial is that you have a good treble bleed installed in your guitar. This is what I'm missing from the example video above. When he dials back the volume and picks more lightly distortion goes away but the tone also gets darker and lacks transient information.

I’ve used the same main axe since 2009. So i can confirm.

+ 1 for this feature.

I find it to be less good i must admit. On my old jmp1 preamp rack system, i could go from very distorted to pretty clean on the volume knob. But something happens with the transient on the kemper that makes me not wan’t to do that. It simply feels uncomfortable. This is ofcourse without a noise gate on. This is actually my biggest regret about using a kemper.

Not just the pre stack slots, but the post stack slots as well!!!

Quote from whippinpost91850

I'm 72 , I hope if Kemper releases something, difinitively better, sooner then later. I feel I only have about 8 more yrs of "LIve Playing" left in me

Here’s hoping that you will live to be the oldest gigging guitarist on earth. And that will live to beat your record eventually
