Kemper Versus Axe FX II - My opinion

  • whow... just read the whole thread.... all 7 pages...



    btw, happy with my kemper, for recording and live with my q12 a...


    btw also considering to buy an axe fx (2 if possible) - don't crucify me please (-:


    if I find a cheap 2nd Kemper in Lunchbox format i will give it a go, price is still relevant to me.


    Could need a 2nd unit (kemper or axe) as I don't want to carry my equipment to the rehearsal every week (60 km from my house), so I need one unit at home and one for rehearsal / gigs (home one then as backup).


    Although I think after testing my Boss me 80 through my matrix, that I even could gig with that thing and the audience would still like my tone (-;


    EDIT:


    About loosing marketshare for fractal audio:


    Without having any statistical backup I personally think that the overall market is growing since the kemper came out. (the pie gets bigger)


    Lets say if the market increased by 50% and Kemper gets a share of 40% the situation would be like this
    (assuming that we have 1.000 Money Units in the market)


    Market: 1.000 MU
    Kemper: 0 MU
    Fractal: 1.000 MU


    New situation:


    Market: 1.000 MU *1,5 = 1.500 MU
    Kemper: 1.500 MU x 0,4 = 600 MU
    Fratal: 1.500 MU x 0,6 = 900


    This means if the overall demand for these products increase - even if you loose 40% of the market share you may just loose 10% in sales.
