CORRECT PROFILE AUTHOR REFERENCE NOW !!!!
I have spent the last 48 hours using just 4 or 5 of the 3.0 Direct profiles form the " 49 " pack and a couple of Rig Exchange Direct profiles
- OTS Clean [ 49 Pack Michael Britt ]
- Thumas MKIII 02 and 06 crunch's' [ Rig Exchange ]
- Gentle King [ 49 Pack TAF ]
- Mars Hi Sue Marshall [ 49 Pack Deadlight Studios ]
- MeBo Stiletto Crunch Tight and Normal [ 49 Pack Deadlight Studios ]
KPA => Matrix SS => Real 2 x 12 Celestion Closed back Cab
Long story short - spent about 30 seconds tweaking each one .... yes they do require tweaking to individual taste / guitar / pickups [ P90 in my case ] ...... but they are so inherently "right " / "accurate " / "precise " that the tweaking is super quick and very musical ....
Real Digital is here ..... period !!
I actually own a 1986 MKIII Boogie 1 x 12 Reverb and EQ combo [ short head ] and its a total screamer / cranker ....... the " Thumas " Rig Exchange [ FREE ..... did I say FREE !!! ] MKIII Direct crunch profiles sound better than my real amp - I actually ran them side-by-side I was that stunned !!!!
I thought and hoped and suspected that good, well done Direct Profiles would be the final tipping point ....... you know ..... as brilliant as the Kemper is at "guessing " the Post-Power-Amp-Pre-Speaker-Cab-Split-Point ......it can never be "perfect" ......... some "splits" it does are spot-on .... some not-so-spot on ..........now it is perfect .... and it sounds perfect .....
Done
