    Where does this information about an Acoustic sim come from ?

    That is an amazing deal for a six core powerhouse! I wish we had such deals over here in Europe!

  • Dave Friedman’s view of kemper.....

    Maybe it is the inaudible stuff that real amps have that are missed by modellers? Think of the complaints by guitarists over the "amp in the room" sound lacking in modellers. I think, and this is just my opinion, that this amp in the room sound is all the inaudible noise either side of the audible sound. Think of the chug of a muted guitar chord. The air movement. The pressure. That's all inaudible noise but it has power behind it and does affect the sound, particularly in a mix. Miced cabs and profiles lack this because no one sits right next to their cab when listening to a good guitar tone. Real amps move air. That's the missing ingredient.

  • Dave Friedman’s view of kemper.....

    Instead of attacking profiling by calling it "piracy", it's a shame he doesn't see the value of putting out his own official profiles based on his amps. He could tap into the market that can't afford his multi mega bucks amps. A win-win for him and us.

    Backups wouldn't be affected by any encryption policy as the contents would be automatically encrypted to work with the profiler once you access the contents and add them to rig manager again.

    How could it be a slap in the face of any commercial profiler since the profiles would not be affected in any way, nor would legacy files because once they are accessed by Rig Manager, they would be encrypted automatically so nothing would perceived to have changed to the user. In fact you would never know it happened if you updated the software and firmware. It's just like when commercial profilers tell the customers that their profiles are made for a particular firmware in order to work and that it would be in your best interest to upgrade....


    You can stay on an older firmware but you would be better off upgrading to get the best value out of their new profiles.

    Anyone who profiles their own amps would not notice the change to encrypted profiles because the profiler would decrypt and play the files once accessed. You are never locked out from the Profiler at any stage.

    Absolutely nothing would change for you in any way.

    I wouldn't be so sure that they won't pursue this policy in the future if their IP becomes vulnerable.... Business is business and it must be protected..

    If you use Rig Manager to manage all those thousands of profiles, then the next time you update it and Kemper decides to introduce encryption as a necessity then during the installation process it could sweep through all of them and encrypt them before you could blink. Remember a thousand profiles is only around 6 megabytes of data. That's nothing and can be encrypted in an instant. Of course if you wish to stay on an older version then you might lock yourself off from the Rig Exchange which no doubt would also end up encrypted and any further releases of new profiles from commercial profilers too. If it became necessary for Kemper to pursue this path, you can be sure you will have to as well.

    Like any software update, it can be made mandatory in order to continue to use the device. If this is the only way to shut down copying of the profiles then those on older versions would have no choice. Microsoft and Apple do this all the time.

    Anyway the editor seems to be the software developer's baby and Christoff is busy working away at the Kabs. That's the impression I got from the Anderton's video...
