Im looking for some typical dire strait sounds.
So i look in the Rig exchange but could not found them.
I need them for Money for nothing, sultans off swing etc. can someone recommend some rigs for that?

Hi Frans. Welcome to the forum!

Welcome Frans, most Amps used by M Knopfler are profiled for free or commercially here, I assume you already have the strat ?

Yes waraba but the sound of sultans of swing is really a graal... And I never Heard a Kemper sounds so close yet.

Try the Vibrolux from ampfactory. It's in the "Vintage & Rare Amp Collection" and AFAIK only available as a bundle. The Vibrolux was the amp on the original recording and Mark still has it. That amp just sounds like sultans which is one reason they are highly regarded and pretty pricey these days.
A maple neck/alder body strat with vintage-style pickups and that Vibrolux will get you 100% there.
Keep in mind that they flew in a chorus during the famous riff at mixing stage. Most likely a Roland chorus as their producer was very much into Roland at that time. To cover that with the KPA you could use the Air-chorus which is pretty much Roland-inspired and should work.
If you need the original isolated guitar part from Mark to compare for tweaking purposes, you will find it on this site:

mk-guitar.com is generally a very profound ressource for everything Mark Knopfler!
