New Kemper sceptic ;-)

Ghost_of_Cain · Aug 16th 2015

Hi Folks,

Just bought used Kemper Toaster and trying to figure out, how to turn it on

I live in Poland, I'm a hobbyist; for years I've prefered tube tones over modelers, didn't quite get use to all-digital setups (although I've played some rehearsals with PODHD500X into Magnum 44 and regular 2x12 - and didn't find any new levels of disgust... :), but now, I expect to get more than that with the profiler. Still I just couldn't chuck my Fender 5150 III out of the bedroom...

I'm not sure if I would use Kemper live, as for my band of nasty cavemen playing "She f..kin hates me" by Puddle of Mud, or punk rock version of "All my lovin'" my trusty copy of a small Soldano Atomic is more than enough... But there will be a day, when I will take my profiler, a powered stage monitor, and go gigging - without the rest of the garbage I've collected over the years...

Cheers!
Sylwester

Cześć Sylwek:) Witam w gangu KPA będziesz zadowolony - to świetny sprzęt - wal śmiało z pytaniami:)
Na początku ciężko to ogarnąć - ale później sam miód i orzeszki:)

Hi & welcome,

Believe me..there was never a bigger sceptic than me.I only bought a modeler because I cant "play loud" anymore and was urged to find "some thing" which I could use to play "silently" through any kind of PA/FOH.

Do yourself a big favour;Get the free rigs of @TAF,@topjimi or @Mbritt and play them.After this there will be no further questions.I will tell you there are also quite a few very good profiles in the factory presets and ofcourse in the rig exchange but for the beginning you should try the ones I told you.Just for you to see what the KPA can do.

Greetings and have fun with the KPA.

ps

Just played three hours nonstop with the matchless & Carr s6 profiles from @and44(TAF).Could not stop untill my neighbour put out his gun..

Welcome on board. The Kemper will change the way you think of digital, picking the right profiles is the key to the KPA. I'm in love with TAF profiles defo try the free ones that can be downloaded from the Kemper download page

Welcome to the forum, I've been playing a long time and for the first time I don not miss toting my tube amps around

Great decision, mate.

Welcome aboard! As a former skeptic myself just keep digging, great tones are there for just about anyone.

Welcome to you

It has taken me nearly a year to be fully convinced but I believe the Kemper can do anything you need, you just need to find it.

I use it live for all my gigs, eventually getting rid of my ENGL - never looked back!...oh I did profile it as well

About to take the final step and push it direct through FOH and eventually get rid of my cab on stage...

Welcome and enjoy the Kemper.

Unlike all the old modelers (with only a few amp models) - the Kemper can sound like any amp setup available.

The results depend on the used profiles - and there are a lot to explore.
