SO which amp profile would be the equivalent of Rotgut Whiskey, I wonder? Cheap, little rough around the edges, will figuratively punch you in the gut, but ultimately gets the job done.

Welcome!
Look in my signature for link to the manuals. There are several ones, among others both a basic manual and the REFERENCE manual which delves deeper. That's probably what you're lacking right now.
Regarding harsh/brittle sounds with p90s and tele pickups: The profiles you're using were likely of amps that were dialed in for humbucking tones. Or alternatively, your tastes are more toward darker sounds than the tastes of those who made the profiles you've tried. The kemper represents the amp which it profiled, so if it was dialed in in a way that you don't like - you won't like the resulting profile either. You can still tweak (apart from the EQ and gain knobs on the front try holding in the "amp" button on the front and scroll to the sides with the arrow keys till you see the Definition knob. That might help you).
Lastly, hold off judgement until you can compare apples to apples with what you're used to.
Last part particularly since you have only used 2 different sets of CANs to hear it. In my experience, not all cans sound good with the KPA. And though the Headphone tap is good, even my best isn't as good as through my Monitors or FRFR wedge.
As mentioned, tweak those RIGs, both with the front facing knobs, or, as mentioned above, by pressing the amp button and tweaking parameters there.

Well, I think the unpowered will be faster in the ring. But, it's giving up some weight and punching power. Tight match.

Your arrangement is the right one @StevieStrings.
I preferred it much over the original track.
Kind of Megadeth vibe, which fits me.DItto, MUCH prefer your cover lol. Nice tight tone too.

Interesting!
I wonder how this will play out. On the one hand, it seems like a smart move to be part of the whole modeling route. On the other hand, it lends credibility to it (which may not have much of an effect either way). Also, they're up against the likes of OwnHammer and RedWirez who have been in the game for a long time.
Course, now you can 'badge' your Kemper, Axe, Helix et al with a "Celestion Inside" badge.

My older Kemper produces a much "warmer" "Organic" tone than the new ones
That's cause it's gots Mojo

It would seem it is the environment (room) the equipment is in. isn't that the only constant? Or can you hear this in different environment?
P.
That's why I asked if it is just when recorded, or while just playing the amp. If just while recorded, then it is something in the recording chain, has to be (assuming the same chain used). If it is while playing just any amp, then that points to something in the environment, yep.

Older units will have more warranty time remaining
It's just to let you know how old the unit is, nothing more nothing less.
These, since the warrenty stays with the device.

Just to clarify,
YOu hear this on any amp you have correct?
Is that just on the recording?
Or, is it while you play them as well.?

Xitone
Almost CLR quality.
Cheaper.

I trust doctors and mainstream medicine to an extent. Antibiotics have saved my life on numerous occasions. However, there are times I've had to take my health into my own hands using alternative medicine because traditional therapy didn't work for me.
Display MoreHi flyinghealhook. I understand what your saying, but its got nothing to do with what i am showing
You cant rely on the mainstream to show the efficacy on some things.If you have never used an alternative or know people (i have 6,000 on record)
you really dont know ANYTHING about it .
And your Doctor doesn't either on some things.Thats my [only] point. Its TRUE whether you believe it or not
Like it or not, the post above me validates it.
I know thousands more. You or your mainstream dont.
Yet they comment on it. (which i find interesting)If you went and asked your doctor 3 years ago about medical cannabis , he would of told you its a dangerous drug.
The FDA is the most corrupt origination , they still list cannabis as a dangerous drug with no medical value
EVEN CBD!!Yet the SAME government has patent on it (USA government patent on medical cannabis)
https://www.google.com.au/patents/US6630507Yet the FDA list it as a dangerous drug.
i still know Doctors who think its a dangerous drug.If you dont know alternatives, dont guess or ask people who have no experience.
that my point ASK THE RIGHT PEOPLEalso, "anecdotal testimony." is statistics, its not statistics by them
BUT ..HOW DO YOU THINK MEDICAL CANNABIS CAME ABOUT AND A PATENT ON IT?anecdotal testimony, in fact in England the sativex came from MS and other people reporting on benefits on medical cannabis
how do you think big pharma got their drugs from?
plants originally from anecdotal testimony.I can name a lot. Keep an open mind with alternatives and just ask the right people
Respectfully
AshI have chronic tendonitis and arthritis in my elbows. The two aggravate each other. Medical Science has brought some relief, but, even they say too much of their cortisone treatments is dangerous.

will check it out. Thanks!

Because of my economy the Alto sits high in priority for two reasons:
1. I can save to it faster
2. I dont need to worry too much if somebody pours beer over it during a gig and breaks completely, you never know.You could also look used for a DXR10.

I felt like you did. I mean the 'blown away', and urge to sell my amps. I had a few amps though. Been through some Mesas, Riveras, Bugeras, Marshalls, Fenders, deLisles, Peaveys. At the time, I was down to a Peavey Valve King II Mini Head, a Peavey 6505 Mini Head, Orange OR15, a Bugera 33XL Infinium and a Fender 68 Custom Deluxe Reverb. I used the Peavey's mostly for recording, because of their direct to DAW interface and speaker defeat. The orange provided it's great, unique crunch tone. Bugera was good at low vol, and I liked the ease of using different O tube combinations. Main rig was like yours, the Fender with a bunch of pedals, half of which were wampler amp in a box types.
Sold the 2 Peaveys (yes after profiling). Frankly the KPA provides everything they did. Sold the Orange, as I made some awesome profiles of that, and no longer needed it. Bugera went bye bye. No need for it. They paid for the used Matrix GT800FX and Passive Atomic CLR, and then a little.
But, I have kept the Fender for now. I've kept it for a few reasons. One, I still haven't gotten GOOD profiles of some of those pedals and the Fender. And, I wanted to capture those. Silly really, because, what I want to capture is Fender and pedal to sound like a Mesa, Slo, Dumble, etc, and I HAVE profiles for that.
But, the 2nd is, as of now, it is kind of my backup. A 'poor man's Kemper, lol
And third, it IS a really good amp.
I have NOT regretted selling the above amps, not one little bit. Pretty sure, if I sold the Fender I wouldn't regret it either.
But, I have been highly thinking of going to a 2nd Kemper, a rack, to go with my Toaster, or a high end Modeler (for different flavor, best of both worlds) like an AXE FX, MAYBE a Helix. For that I probably would sell the pedals off, first, then the Badcat Unleash, then maybe the Fender as well.
Might even just sell the Fender, and get one of the new breed SS combos like the BLuescube or Boss Katana, just as a real light grab and go option..
Not sure if that helped, lol

In all those vids up there, the CLR sounds the most accurate reproduction, while the Yamaha and Alto seem to not be as flat. And, ime, my CLR remains the same at any volume. But, allowing for those things, the Alto and Yamaha are cheaper. The other thing I will say, is the CLR is built to take a serious licking. It is built tough. FWIW, I run Kemper to Matrix GT800FX to passive CLR. And I got my passive CLR, and Matrix used for about what a new powered CLR costs. So, kind of a great bang for buck.

I have showed this 10000 times...
We need TURMERIC IN OUR MENU TO STOP/prevent THIS.Go to You tube put GOLDEN MILK in search
dont use cow's milk or soy (almond or oat etc ok)DRINK THAT EVERY DAY.
Stretch before playing and take turmeric daily you wont get that again.
the body is telling you some thing please listen to it.TURMERIC IS YOUR ONLY FRIEND..(like music)
(as if your on a bad diet, this can protect your bones and muscles)
All as that steroid shot was , is an anti inflammatory.
TURMERIC IS AN ANTI INFLAMMATORY TOO BUT ALSO DOES 1000 MORE THINGS...
AND ..IS NON TOXIC...Turmeric has equaled or better even the worlds top steroid.
WHAT YO EAT DETERMINES HOW LONG YOU WILL PLAY GUITAR.
LET THAT HAUNT YOU MOTHER FUCKERS....OR LET IT NOTDRINK THE GOLDEN MILK...
Ash
Because of this I started taking Tumeric supplements daily.

Only 1 promo video that I could find. Sounds good, but it's super limited in what it shows.

Great playing, UI looks very clean, the tones do not sound good to me though in that video, very muffled very compressed, very digital drenched in room verb (maybe a bad IR?) rather than real amp in a room sounding to my ears
Yea, agree Per. Interface looks really good. Tone was less than inspiring.

You can monitor/compare the source and profile with headphones. That's my first comparison. When I think they are matched, I then turn on my Studio Monitors, hooked up to my main outs. Refine if needed. THen I will also compare, outputting to my Atomic CLR, via the monitor out to a Matrix amp to the CLR.
GENERALLY though, if they sound good on the headphones, then little refining is needed after that (i.e. sound same through monitors, etc). I wouldn't use the Victory CAB, as it WILL color the tone, and you will be dbl cabbing. For you, Isd suggest using headphones via the front headphone jack.
If you were doing DI profiles, then you could use the Victory CAB.
I could be wrong, not an expert by any means.
