To the OP...
I understand the concept of constructive criticism and I appreciate you taking the time to contribute your thoughts.
Thanks for posting.
I hope you are enjoying your Kemper.
My reasons for loving the Kemper are many.
#1) The sound. OMG! This thing can produce tones that sing.
Feels like a real amp and the tracks sit beautifully in mixes.
#2) The capability of profiling my own amps.
So fun and easy... I've had great results with very little effort.
#3) Kemper continues to add new features that expand the sonic capabilities and the upgrades are FREE.
#4) Rather than come out with the "Kemper II", they have continued to develop and support the original.
#5) This forum! So many helpful folks. Great insight and knowledge.
That said, I advise having a relationship with a music store where they will let you try gear.
Many of the stores in my area have 30 or 45 day return policies.
I always do research, but sometimes when I get the gear home, I find flaws or problems that are deal breakers.
One case was the Line 6 Helix. Very cool unit, but I couldn't find a way to get the sounds I wanted. (no slam intended, lot's of folks getting great sounds with it)
Returned it and got the Kemper.
I've been in guitar heaven ever since.
