How do I make just a cab Profile, maybe with Impulse Response?

Hey there. Like the title says: How do I make just a cab Profile accurately? Background: I have a good Profile which Sounds great through my cabinet, and for recording I use the Profile through a guitar rig cabinet and some eqing in the daw, which Sounds awesome. I want to have the cab Sound IN the kemper, too. How do I do that?

Any advise is helpful.
Thank you!
Tobi

Be careful. When trying to profile a profile you can cause a tear in the space-time continuum.
Just make sure the flux capacitor has the required 1.21 gigawatts and don't cross the streams.

You have to profile on your own and make a merged cabinet. Save that cab..and use it with that Profile (Has to be a 3.0 merged Profile)
or you can check other 3.0 merged profiles..look for some you like the micing...save that cab..and use it with that profile

Today I'll try it with Impulse Response Files. I'll post how I did it if it was succesfull.

but you mean a 3.0 direct profile right? If old Profile around 20-30% of the amp will be missing, especially powerampsection

I had the old os running. I didn't want to have the risk that anything could happen, very important gigs in thursday and saturday. I Tried to make IRs of the software cab, but it won't work or sound like the kemper without cab and directly in the interface with guitar rig doing the cab. wil now switch to 3.0. I have an editet performance, and just want to change the cab simulation without changing the direct signal to the real cab. Could you please describe how to do that? New to the materia...

you can swap the cab..it will not change the sound on real cab...

I'm getting crazy here, sorry man... I did the following:
- I have a performance with different sounds (Crunch, High gain, compressed crunch etc), they are all set up with the same amp but different settings, and they all use the same cab simulation
- the sound over monitor out (over my actual cab) is good for me, but the sound the mixer guy gets or i record is not so good
- when I record I use the main out, and turn off the cab section in the Stack. I run it through guitar rig with some eqs and it sounds killer

now i want to replace the cab section with the one i use in my DAW. I tried to make IRs for cab maker, imported it, but it doesn't sound anything like the DAW Cab, doesn't matter if i make the IRs with pink noise, sweeps raw, pink noise and sweeps reamped through the amp section without cab to make an acurate frequency range. I tried to profile the amp with amp and eq settings from kemper, but even when i switch between reference and kemper amp before the actual profiling it sounds different, even though i routed the main out to the direct out to have the exact same sound on my main out and my direct out so he only profiles the difference. but the kemper replaces everything with profiling, amp and cab. i need to find a way to just make a preset for the cab in my DAW. I don't know if that's even possible after all I tried

use another profile. Usually 95% of the Profiles sound Great on a Real cab...+ 95% suck on FOH because bad miced
Why stick with that profile? There are thousands!
+ new 3.0 merged profiles sound not only good on real cab - they sound like the real amp would
