I listened to both sound clips and, to my ears, had this exact same problem a couple days ago. It persisted even after a couple reboots and trying different profiles. I was stumped and was planning on opening up a support case but the next day the problem went away and it hasn't come back since.
I use headphones directly into the kpa.

Today I spent a couple hours using the new fuzz stuff, played it really loud, and blew my ears out. Totally worth it.

Tell me more about this beauty, mate!
It's a one-of-a-kind guitar made be the late Jim Nunis, a guitar builder in 2000's. This one was made for a company called PedalGeek so its got that company's logo on the fret board.
From the listing's description, "...one-piece, bound carved flame maple top with natural finish, one piece mahogany back with black finish, three-piece bound maple neck w/fret-edge binding, flame maple headstock overlay, satin finish all over (body, neck, headstock), ebony fretboard...". It's also got Stainless steel frets.
I was looking for a singlecut with natural finish and I got this on a trade. It sounds and plays amazing!

Latest partscaster. The Lollar mini-humbuckers sounds great.

I use headphones and play low-mid gain profiles and these are my "top 5":
- Pure Cabinet - I keep mine at 3.5 globally. With it set to a value of 0 the profiles get a hint of harshness I don't like. For a long time I had it set to 0 and learned how to use the Kemper adjustments accordingly. One day I reset my KPA to factory defaults and since Pure Cabinet is set to 4.0 (i think) from the reset I was amazed how much I need this setting. I had to re-think most of what I'd learned on how to make the KPA sound good to me.
- High-Shift and Low-Shift in the Cabinet section - Small tweaks can really shape how the profile sounds. When surfing profiles I usually make some adjustments here first to see if the profile is something worth saving.
- Understanding the relationship between Amplifier EQ knobs for B/M/T/P and the the remaining knobs in that section. This is a big subjective subject but a good starting point for me were the tonejunkie youtube videos + posts on this forum.
- Don't go crazy with making a ton of tweaks. Either you like a profile initially or not and don't spend too much time trying to like a profile.
- Focus on playing the guitar and having fun. For me the KPA can be rabbit-hole of options that takes away from just playing guitar and having a good time.

I've had this exact problem for months and the only fix is for me to keep rebooting the KPA until it finally works. I opened up a support ticket a while ago and the recommendation was to install the latest KPA os. It worked for a while then the problem returned. I gave up and have just been living with it...
It's my fault for not putting effort into contacting support again but I honestly felt like I was the only user with this problem. Until now!

Great profiles thank you!
-
I had the same problem too and a second reboot fixed the issue.
-
I have it at 2.0 globally and it definitely makes the profiles I use sound more amp like.
I play low to medium gain profiles and use headphones.
-
I love my Sennheiser HD 600 headphones with the KPA. Very flat-reponse and natural sounding (at least to me).

Try this link off the forum.
Filter that sounds like a univibe
It's not perfect but is close enough for my needs. That said, yes it would be terrific for Kemper to re-visit this effect and make improvements.
