Slightly off topic as I'm not talking about a stomp box Profiler but the actual KPA:
I guess profiling overdrive /distortion pedals as stomps would need a second stack section (or something similar, which fits in a stomp slot).
This would perhaps need more processor power than available and thus it can't be implemented in the KPA.
Remember: these are just my thoughts and I might be completely wrong.
Kemper Drive Clone Stompbox - New product?

You are correct, this has been mentioned by ck before I think. But another mini floorboard size profiler for stomps would be great.
-
''The Stomps Profiler'', It sounds good! All the drive pedals that exists in a small two footswitches full MIDI box!
It would sell like cakes!!!
-
It could also be an add-on for our actual Profilers which would perfectly integrate with the Kemper floorboard!!!
-
Exactly, good idea isn't it, every drive pedal in one box!
-
I was just thinking about how cool it would be to be able to profile pedals. Everything from overdrive, delay, reverb to wah.

time. Who knows?
They would save a lot in R&D... -

They would save a lot in R&D...Yes, you're right Gianfranco! The stomps profiler would be a mini profiler in fact, and a lot of people would buy it in the place of a KPA as a cheap profiler solution... Which would not be a good marketing strategy! And I agree that if it could run two profiles in the same time it would surely be a feature for a future Kemper II.
-
Actually, the stomp Profiler would be a MAXY Profiler! The ability to run n profiles at he same time is something the current Profiler can't do. And a stomp Profiler which did not allow to run more that 3-4 fx at the same time would make not sense IMO?
But I had not thought about using the FX Profiler as a standart Profiler! Good one!

However what could be a good strategy for Kemper is to release a non-profiler profiles-reader that could only read special profiles of drive pedals (could not read actual amp profiles) especially made by Kemper for this specific stomp box device. The users could buy the profiles they want and load them in their devices. Each stomps reader could read one profile at a time. It would be similar to the Eventide H9 formula but for drive pedals.
-
It should be a so called "kipr"-file reader.
Making the "Direct-Amp"-profile of the overdrive-box with the normal KPA and implement this "kipr"-file into the "kipr-file-box" and loop it in the profiler or put it in front of it.Shouldn't be a big deal for the Kemper-Team

I'd love a Kemper pedal
There is also this great project regarding pedal modeling here, someone linked it a few days ago :

Might be the killer missing link in front of the KPA

The stomps/reader should not use normal KIPR files because this way it could also read amps profiles which means that the new stompbox could be used as a cheap alternative to KPA (not good for business...). It's why I suggest a different type of files for this box.

Digitech tried this with the iStomp. It didn't do very well.

I agree! But keep in mind that we speak here of the profile paradigm which could give a lot better results than anything other companies could have released in the past!
