Is Kemper capable in getting reverbs sounding far away from stage, in the distance, in the toilet or something like that (I can't describe it better..)

Set the Reverb Mix to 100%, or maybe a little less. With this kind of setting, you will want "Predelay" turned down to "0".
-
could you imagine 100% could you 100% imagine setting the 100% reverb reverb that high?
-
LOL! The guitar sound in that clip is VERY distant
-
Yes! And when you can achieve that then the solo guitar is sounding much less to the front, less dominant and less overruling and sounds more mellow. I guess this recording was done with the guitarplayer in the toilet or somewhere in the backyard. I tried all kinds of internal reverbs with tweaking of mix and time but nothing comes close. In a way I compare it with a reverb that professional singers use: enormously natural sounding ambience (but then for guitar a bit extra!)
-
Probably also a quite long reverb time (3+ secs), and limited bandwidth. Experiment with the frequency, damping and bandwidth parameters.
-
OK. Thanks. I did that but will try again.
-
Using an EQ before the reverb to darken the guitar tone might help you get that sound, too.

... in the distance, in the toilet or something like that...
Hey, a toilet's never far away from the Monkster.Essential source of ammunition!
-
I tried several options but they all not really come close. I guess I need an extra kind of unit. Somewhere I still have an old TC Electronic G-Force unit Maybe that'll do the trick but this unit is known for some tone sucking...

I think you are very close to the reality -

But with the guitar player in the toilet, where do they put his amp??? -

The toilets were bigger in that days -

Well, I've seen monkeys doing strange things with twigs and anthills... Stirring, stirring, stirring...

But seriously, has anyone tried to profile with the reverb on and with the mic quite far away, so as to capture the sound of the room acoustic qualities. Lke Led Zeppelin's drums on "When the Levy Breaks". Or is that idea also bound for M-M's toilet?
-
I once recorded a track with my amp in the toilets to get that tone
no idea how to reproduce that with a KPA tho -

The KPA does not capture reverb in a profile. If you use a distant microphone when you profile, you will get the off-axis /distant relatively dark tone of how the amp would sound with the same mic position in a dry room.

Sounds like a spring reverb with a mid range bandwidth, slight gain, well before breakup and the mic's been placed in a drainpipe. Ok and the guitar feels like a SC. Telecaster.
So for the first, Kemper doesn't have spring reverb... At the moment -
Seriously: since the 20ies of the last centuries so called (In German) "Hallräume" ( englisch reverb rooms?) was used to get some reverb.
In the legendary Abbey Road studio, there should exist one still today.
It was not really a joke, that the Peter Green part could be recorded with a Mic and Amp in the bathroom. I heard a lot of such stories when I started to play. -
