How does the Kemper sound when recorded through a computer interface , compared to others such as the Line6 Hd 500 or the Rack 11 or plugins you get the picture

As a miked up amp, as opposed to a modeled amp

I'm really new at this forum as I got mine on Friday and I'm stoked. Recorded from the main output into the preamp of my presonus firebox and it sounded EXACTLY as through the monitors. Perfect!

What I mean is the conversion to a digital recording using a interface does it retain the same quality as to what you hear ? Since the unit has no USB to go into a digital interface and you will either have to use the line outs or the xlr outputs or S/PDIF ? Will I need a interface with a S/PDIF input ? The one I have now only has a S/PDIF output .
What make/model of interface is it?

Using s/pdif you will record exactly what's in the KPA. Using analog you will go through a couple of conversions but I doubt you'll hear a difference unless you gain stage completely wrong. For reamping s/pdif may be beneficial though (consistency, noise floor).

Thanks for the info cuz -
I recently did a project with the Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 and it worked wonderfully with the S/PDIF's active for the KPA and simultaneously recording six of the eight inputs... the sound was really great! No problems at all..

I'm recording my Kemper stereo outs connected to my Edirol FA-66 interface and it sound great.

If you like the recordings from your analog outs (and there's no reason why you shouldn't) then no new interface is necessary.
If you want to upgrade from the UX-2 anyway you will benefit from one AD conversion less. -

Something I cannot achieve. I can hear a difference, especially on crunches, sound on my firebox sounds less dynamic.
