Display MoreNice man!!!
O love the CC Deville tone!
I use katzbach marshall jcm 900 slx...
It's amazing Tone !!
I have the same problem , adjust the chorus effect like CC Deville.
I need to buy the matfig brown eye! But will be only the next month...
Cheers man!
I have the Katzbach 900 SLX, but hadn't really messed with it too much. I'll have to try it for some CC, too. I'm really liking that BE for the 80s sounds, though. Live Ready and Burt have awesome BE's, as well.
I always forget about the Brown Eye packs... I'm really liking Mattfig's Brown Eye pack for some Poison, with the Micropitch before the amp.
Everyone can get a good laugh at my expense, but C.C. DeVille has always been one of my favorite guitar players. I may be the only person on here trying to get some old Poison tones, but if not, what rigs and effects are you using?
So far, I've mainly been using RandoRG Big Hair Guitar, from Big Hairy Profiles, and one of the Lee Jackson's, from Top Jimi. I also just started messing around with the micropitch effect, to try to get the sound a little closer. I haven't really figured out how I wanted to set that effect, though, or even whether I want to use it before or after the amp.
Display MoreMichael,
I've been buying many of your profile packs since I bought my Kemper several weeks ago. I'm having a hard time determining what is in what pack and what is an duplicate to another pack or an duplicate to profiles that you have provided for free.
Here are the packs I've bought so far:
Profile Pack 1, 2, 3, Vintage Pack, D Pack, BoC Pack, 69 Marshall Pack, Tweedy Pack, JKelley Pack
If I buy the remaining packs I'm missing can you give me an idea of how many duplicate profiles I wlll have purchased?
For example you refer to the Sweet 16 pack as a "greatest hits" pack. Are all of those profiles in other packs?
I don't mind buying packs with duplicates when the duplicates were freebies that came with the Kemper or are part of the 50 profile rig pack that was also free. That is to be expected. I'm just trying to avoid buying a pack only to find that I already own most if not all of the profiles already.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Mike Carpenter
I'm almost certain that the only duplicates should be from the Rig Packs, and Mike has already adjusted his prices to account for that.
For the Sweet 16 pack, I attached screenshots of what is in it.
Think I just burnt 30 straight minutes playing DP 6160P R1S along with a random A major backing track. Great lead sound, with a little delay added to it.
Display MoreWe use a DI box supplied to us by Kemper. It looks like a tiny version of the lunch pail Kemper.
It works well and seems to only color the sound slightly.
Merged profiling seems to be the most accurate, relative to the studio profiles, at higher gain settings (our High, VHi, and Max profiles). We rarely have trouble getting a good merged profile under these conditions.
Merged profiling can be rather frustrating at low and medium gain levels (our Cln, Low and Med profiles). The Kemper sometimes simply won't capture an accurate merged profile at low or medium gain levels, and you end up with something which doesn't sound at all like the studio profile. Sometimes it works great. Sometimes it doesn't. It's hard to predict when it'll be a problem and when it won't.
This is why we still include studio profiles in all of our packs, as they are the most accurate in capturing the sound of the amp.
One way we've found to get merged profiles to work at low and medium gain settings is to reduce treble and presence a bit on the amp. Sometimes this does the trick. Unfortunately, that means the merged and studio profiles are more different sounding than they would have otherwise been. We'll then adjust the merged profile after the fact, but there will still be some differences.

Thanks for the info!
I have noticed this same. For some vendors the merged and studio profiles can sound veeery much alike and then on the other hand there are vendors that have clear difference between matching studio/merged. And this is many times rather systematic from pack to another. Would be very interesting to know the reasons behind this, but can only guess it has something to do either with the gear(DI box) or some processing. dunno!
My initial guess was that it was related to the DI box, but I would think that would possibly attenuate the gain and definition a tiny amount. Probably not really noticeable.
I would like to see hp and lp filters in the output section, as well.
I was just noticing that the merged and studio profiles sound very different from one other. It looks like the gain and definition vary greatly. For example: TJ-800 Med M has 3.6 gain and 5.4 definition. TJ-800 Med has 3.6 gain and 8.7 definition. I'm perfectly fine with the greater variety of sounds, doing it this way, but I would have expected the merged and studio profiles to sound similar. I'm just curious as to the reason for doing it this way.
I'm happy with my 305s, but if I had room, I'm sure I'd be happier with 8 inch monitors.
@Stikany did you have any samples available? Just found this thread and am reading really good things from a lot of the people with similar tastes as me. Just wondering if there were any samples available. Thanks!
Very versatile pack! I would not expected some of those tones out of that amp!
I was messing around with some scales and lead stuff,yesterday evening, using your Mark IV lead profiles. They sounded great and I completely lost track of time, playing with them.
I am using an XLR cable between the Kemper and the LSR305s.
Very kind! - thankyou Patrick
No problem.
I'm not sure what their forum names are, unfortunately.
Check with these guys

They both have very informative and entertaining videos, and would probably be willing to help you out.
I don't own any SLO packs, but from the free samples I've tried, I like SinMix's the best.
No problem. I was getting some awesome metal tones out of the JP2C, with the EMG 81, too. I just can't play metal very well, so my clips would be worthless for that.
So far, for Blue album tones, I'm using @MentaLReampzone 1992 Rev F 29 (Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier) and @lonestargtr MBritt 62 Princeton from his Sweet Sixteen pack, for my Weezer tones. Still curious as to what others are using, though.
